Nitaqat and its Impact on the Labour Market of Kerala. Return Migration and its Problems

      Аннотация: Migration is a worldwide phenomenon in recent years. Millions of people all over the world move out of their normal place of residence to seek their fortune elsewhere. In settlement migration, people from less developed countries migrate to developed countries to avail better jobs, opportunities, living conditions and to settle there. Kerala is the major emigration hub of India. Malappuram is the largest manpower exporter district in Kerala. Many Non-Residential Keralites (NRKs) are working in different parts of the world and their main migration destination is countries of the Middle East. Recent forced return migration from the countries of the Middle East created huge problems in the labour market of Kerala. In the contemporary context of alarming return migration, this book attempts to understand its problems on a labour supplying state like Kerala. The book will be of interest to students and scholars of economics, diaspora studies, migration studies and sociology, apart from policy makers and administrators of transnational migration and NGOs working in the field of migration.
