International mobility is not a new concept as people have moved
throughout history, voluntarily and forcibly, for personal,
familial, economic, political, and professional reasons. Yet, the
mobility of technical talent in the global economy is relatively
new, largely voluntary, structurally determined by market forces,
and influenced by immigration policies. With over a decade's worth
of extensive research in India, Japan, Finland, and Singapore, this
book provides an alternative understanding of how capitalism
functions at the global level by specifically analyzing the
international movement of technical professionals between India and
Japan. There are three factors that inform this study: the services
transition away from manufacturing, the movement of technical
professionals in the world economy, and the demographic crisis
facing Japan. The dynamics of changing capitalism are examined by
theorizing the emergence of the services sector in the USA and
Japan, analyzing the pronounced social inequality in India that is
the basis for the global supply of highly skilled technical
professionals, and providing considerable empirical data on the
flows of professionals to these two countries to indicate Japan's
institutional inflexibility in accommodating foreign talent. The
author anticipates that Japanese industry will shed some of its
institutional rigidity due to the pressures of competition and the
scarcity of technical professionals. Providing a wealth of
information on the topic of international mobility, this book is an
essential addition for scholars and students in the field of
International Development, Business Studies, Asian Studies,
Migration Studies, and Political Economy.
