Brain drain, education subsidy and the Bhagwati tax

Schiff, Maurice W. - 2026

An early view, associated with the Bhagwati tax, is that skilled migration - i.e., a brain drain - has a negative impact on migrants' source countries. A more recent view is that a brain drain generates a brain gain which can have a positive impact on source countries. This view is based on a...

Taxes on international students : demand and supply response for post-graduation foreign workers on optional practical training

Clemens, Michael A. - 2026

The US government has proposed various taxes on high-skill immigration. The effects of such taxes hinge on price elasticities of demand and supply that the literature has rarely measured.
