Researching Potential Migrants: "Brain Drain" of Young Scientist from Croatia
Mirjana Adamović

Sažetak
Migration of highly skilled from countries in transition, Croatia included, assumes a form of “drain” rather than “circulation” of labor. Drain of highly skilled human resources from Croatia has its populistic (counterfactual) publicity as well as factual (research based) one. The latter show the ongoing trend of brain drain, predicted by researchers in Croatia in 1990. The article discusses the results of a survey destined to collect data on potential brain drain, made in 2000 among young graduate students and research assistants (No = 536) at Zagreb University. Policies and research in Crotia towards highly skilled young scientist are critically aproached and evaluated within international framework. The multiple regression analysis and predictors achieved show that potential migrants are mostly young scientists that are highly satisfied with their positioning within the current system of opportunities but not satisfied with their perspectives in Croatia.
