Writing for policymakers in developing countries, Kuznetsov (a senior economist with the World Bank's Knowledge for Development Program) and his contributors explore the possible contributions of diaspora networks (self-organized groups of expatriates) to the development of their countries of origin--the transformation of "brain drain" into "brain gain." The primary theme of the ten chapters concerns the interaction of expatriate talent and institutions in home countries. The volume begins with explorations of analytical and policy issues, before providing case studies of both established large networks and emerging networks of relatively small diasporas of highly skilled expatriates. The policy and institutional implications of the cases are summarized in a concluding chapter. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
