International Migration Outlook. Sopemi 2010

This publication constitutes the thirty-fourth report of the OECD’s Continuous Reporting System on migration (known by its French acronym SOPEMI). It looks at the contribution of immigration to changes in the working-age population in the past decade, and the role of migration inflows at projected levels in driving growth of the working-age population in the next decade. It presents information on international students, including a first attempt to calculate the rates at which these students remain in their host countries after the completion of their studies.

The report is divided into five parts plus a statistical annex.

Part I contains two subsections.

The first of these provides a broad overview of recent trends in international migration flows, both temporary and permanent and a look at population growth in countries undergoing demographic decline.

The second subsection of Part I highlights major changes in migration policy. It looks specifically at the expansion in demand-driven systems for recruitment of workers from abroad, as well as the increasing use of points-based systems to select immigrants likely to succeed on the labour market.

Part II provides a close look at the impact of the economic crisis on the employment situation of immigrants, following up on the 2009 Special Edition of the International Migration Outlook focusing on the crisis. The disproportionate impact of the crisis on immigrants is examined, looking at factors such as concentration in specific sectors and gender differences.

Parts III and IV are devoted to special topics and examines the determinants of public opinion regarding migration. It looks at recent opinion surveys, individual determinants and the role of major stakeholders such as social partners and the media. Parts IV focuses on the determinants of acquisition of nationality and the impact of naturalisation on labour market outcomes.

Part V presents succinct country-specific notes and statistics on developments in international migration movements and policies in OECD countries in recent years.

The statistical annex includes a broad selection of recent and historical statistics on immigrant flows, the foreign and foreign-born populations, naturalisations and migrant workers.
