Abstract

Applying a simple two-country model, we find that under mutual reaction by each country regarding the productive quality of migrants, the host country may be able to reduce the total number of illegal immigrants by changing the restriction policy toward illegal immigration. On the other hand, the host country has no effective policy method to improve the average quality of immigrants, but the relative population increase in the source country may realize this improvement.

On the other hand, China adopted an “overseas human resources recall policy” and accomplished certain results. Following the announcement by the Ministry of Education of China, the total number of international students from 1978 to 2018 was 5,857,100. Among these, 3,651,400 have returned to China. This can be counted as another success story regarding recovery from the loss of brain drain.
