Fokozódó külföldre irányuló migráció - lehetőségek, remények és munkaerő-piaci hatások

Outward migration from today’s Hungary is a fact: it is one of the most worrying social problems, and although its extent is difficult to measure, it has been visibly increasing since 2010–11. Early in the decade, growing signs prompted a question in the Social Report about whether Hungary was following the regional trend in outward migration; by the middle of the decade the answer was clear (Hárs, 2012; 2016). Future trends can only be guessed at. For a long time, outward migration from Hungary was less pronounced than from most of the region’s countries and its structure was rather different; thus its impact and implications are not yet known. This chapter investigates where Hungary stands in the growing tendency toward outward migration from the Eastern European region and looks at its specific features and its impact on the labour market.
