Resumen
The classical approaches on skilled migration focus on the negative effects of the phenomenon through concepts such as brain drain. Geopolitical, economic, social and technological changes occurred in the last decades allow the development of new theoretical tools that enable a better understanding of the skilled migration processes. From this perspective, the chapter aims to review the main concepts provided by the literature on skilled migration and to highlight the potential of the brain networking perspective as a theoretical and political tool. The second objective of the chapter is to present the main findings of the survey conducted in 2010 to a sample of 217 skilled Romanian immigrants that are part of the international brain network GRASP (Global Romanian Society of Young Professionals).
