Abstract

The phenomenon of migration of intellectuals, also known as "brain drain", we mean that constant transfer of highly qualified persons, especially in generally into less developed countries, to those states that have a developed economy. Most often, aspects of the social environment of home country, are the triggering factor in the migration decision intellectuals. Reducing the negative impact of brain drain can be achieved through the transfer of "know-how" through collaboration between intellectuals in the Diaspora with those of the country of origin in some projects.
