SUMMARY
The international migrations in the second half of the twentieth century in the world did
have a tendency of continued increase. In the recent years, the total amount of international
migrants is estimated at about
125
million persons, or
2,0%
of the total world population. The
considerable intensity of those migratory movements did raise an immense interest of the
scientific thought from several scientific disciplines. The results of the research indicated a
particular changes in the cognition about the international migrations and the development.
The Republic of Macedonia is one of the countries where the emigratory movements in
the last four decades have registered continued growth. The subject of this examination is the
contemporary international migrations, the emigration from the Republic of Macedonia and
the socio-economic development. It arose from the cognition on the changes in the size and
the intensity of those movements from our country and the necessity of its observation in the
context of the whole international migration streams and trends in the world. By the research
in the first part, the essential theoretical and empirical cognition about the contemporary
international migrations and the development are encompassed. In the second half, the situ¬
ation in the Republic of Macedonia as a whole and its emigratory areas since
1945
up until
now, are analyzed.
,
The aims of the research are as follows: to have an overview of the changes in the
theoretical cognition and the experience concerning the interaction between the international
migrations and the development; to identify the dimensions arid the basic characteristics of
the contemporary emigration from the Republic of Macedonia
-
as a total and regionally; to
acquire the relevant cognition about the causes, the consequences arid the implications of the
emigration on the development of the country; to identify the influence of those migratory
movements on the development of the emigratory areas by the samples of the municipalities
of
Bitola
and
Resen;
to identify the necessary presuppositions to decrease the intensity of the
permanent emigrations, to actuate a return streams as well as to stress the inevitability of
active migration policy existence.
Several relevant statements, conclusions and suggestions arose from the research in
this work.
391
Part One
I. The Basic Theoretical and Empirical Cognition on the
International Migrations
>
The complexity of the interdependence of the migrations and the socio-economic develop¬
ment is stressing the need make a clear distinction between the different kinds of the
international migrations. In that context, from several classifications, the most acceptable
is the definition of the economic migration and the refugees.
>
In the contemporary theoretical discussions on the international migrations and the de¬
velopment, two opposite stands are differentiating for some time, For those who belong
to the neoclassical, or the theory of balance, the international migrations have a positive
influence on the development of the receiving countries and of the countries of origin
and contribute to the increase of the production in the world. According to the theory of
assymmetricity, the migrations are widening the differences in the development level.
The unsustainability of the neoclassical theory is arising from the substantially changed
character of those migratory movements and the obvious irreconcilability of the theory
and practice.
The cognition about even more limited role of the international migrations as a factor of
the development and the decrease of its amount in the future, did initiate the discussions
about finding the alternative solutions. There is a common opinion that those alternative
solutions are to be primarily sought in the development strategy of open economies,
which would ensure a sustainable economic development of the countries of origin and
the emigratory pressure decrease. Based on those discussions, three strategies in opening
toward the external world distinguish: construction of free industrial zones, free trade,
foreign direct investments and the official development aid. The importance of the free
industrial zones in actuating the regional development and opening new work places is
irrefutable. But they cannot absorb all the excess labour force and secure the integrated
development, which is the way to eliminate the causes of the emigration. When great
differences in the level of the development exist, the free trade as such could not repre¬
sent an alternative to the migratory movements. So, we estimate that the orientation
should be primarily toward the foreign direct investments and the different kinds of
financial aid.
>
The determinants of the international migrations are different and very complex. The
research showed that they are primarily caused by the economic factors: the differenc¬
es in the level of economic development; the poverty; the deagrarization processes; the
employment and unemployment; the changes in the economic cycles; the differences in
the level of wages etc. Of increasing influence are the processes of global economic
restructuring and the intensification of the regional economic integrations, which will not
decrease the emigratory pressure in the short and medium term. Relatively significant is
the influence of some non-economic and subjective factors. Of those, the emphasized
influence do have the differences in the demographic development, the migratory pressure
and the establishment of the migration networks that are identified as factors of perma-
392
Summary
nent preservation of those movements. When the significant migratory pressure exists,
the restrictive immigration policies are an essential limiting factor.
>
The analysis of the theoretical discussions on the influence of the international migra¬
tions on the socio-economic development of the immigratory and the emigratory coun¬
tries showed that the consequences and the implications are numerous, some of them
different now than three decades ago.
-
The influence on the demographic development is reflected on the movement of the
total number of citizens and the changes in the components of natural movements,
the demographic and socio-economic structure of the population in receiving coun¬
tries and in countries of origin. During its determination in the contemporary condi¬
tions, it is necessary to respect substantially changed demographic context in which
those movements are taking place. The result of the recent studies showed that the
international migration does not have anymore the
redistributive
potential of the past.
-
The implications of the international migrations on the economic development of the
receiving countries are positive and are manifested by muMplicating
macroeconomic
effects on the labour force market, the economic growth, the organization of the
production process and technology selection, social net system etc.
-
As far as the
macroeconomic
consequences and implications of the emigration are
concerned, unquestionable is the favorable influence of the temporary migration, un¬
less the positive effects of the unemployment decrease, the inflow of the foreign
currency, the new knowledge acquired by the migrants are to be utilized. The conse¬
quences of the long-term emigration and permanent emigrations are negative be¬
cause of the loss of high-grade human potential. In such circumstances, the socio-
economic transformation and surpassing the development problems of the countries
of origin are not secured.
II. The International Migrations and the Socio-economic
Development of Particular Regions in the World
^ As for the experiences about the interaction between the contemporary international
migrations and the development, the situation in Europe, U.S.A, Canada and Australia
are analyzed in particular. The determination toward those areas, among other things, is
because of the prevailing direction of the emigration from the Republic of Macedonia
toward those countries.
>
The available data on the permanent immigration in the U.S.A, Canada and Australia
show that the immigration is registering the changes only on the dynamics and the
structural characteristics of the immigrants. Between
1965
and
1989,
about
18,4
million
persons have immigrated into those countries, of which
65,0%
in the U.S.A,
20,0%
in
Canada and
15,0%
in Australia. On the contrary, the international migrations in Europe
are characterized by very large changes in the kinds, the amount, the intensity and the
directions of the movements. Of those, the migrant workers and members of their families,
the migration East-West, the asylum seekers and the refugees are singled out. Even it is
not easy to determine its volume, the available data is giving a partial notion on the
situation and the movements influenced by several demographic, socio-economic, politi¬
cal and other motives.
393
>
The consequences and the implications on the demographic development are different.
In the receiving countries those are obviously positive. Based on the estimates; by the
United Nations, between
1950
and
1989,
the contribution of net migration on trie rate of
total population increase in the U.S.A. is amounting
23,0%,
in Canada
-
25?0%, in Aus¬
tralia
- 41,0%
and in the European countries between
10,0%
and
50,0%.
Illustrative is
the sample of Germany, where after
1970,
the source of the total population increase is
the immigration. The projections of the future movements show that in those areas, with
the immigration in the first half of the 21-th century, the population decrease could be
stopped only if the continued acceptance of larger number of immigrants would be
allowed. But, the negative effects of significantly low fertility could not even be com¬
pensated in that way. Unlike those countries, in the countries of origin, the direct and
indirect effects of the emigration over the population growth are negative.
>
The influence of the international migrations on the economic development of the re¬
ceiving countries is positive, and is a result of the permanent reassessment of its immi¬
gration policies and the increased selectivity in accepting
thé
immigrants. The countries
of origin did not succeed in fully utilizing the advantages of the temporary emigration.
The negative influences are particularly large in the countries where the emigration is
happening for many decades and is also characterized by very large outflow of highly
! qualified cadre. That is confirmed by the changes and widening
thé
differences in the
level of development and the standard of living of the population in immigratory and
emigratory countries in the observed regions, that happened in last four decades.
Part Two
I. The Size and the Characteristics of the Contemporary Emigration
from the Republic of Macedonia
>
As for the external migrations of the Republic of Macedonia during longer time frame,
the prevailing emigration is typical. Its current territory is traditionally emigratory area
for more than one hundred years.
>
By the analyses made we concluded that the changes in the size and the character of
the emigration, since
1945
up until now, are corresponding to the phases of the social
and economic development of the country and the changes of the migration policies of
the receiving countries. By our opinion, four periods are singled out.
-
The first one, starting in
1945
up until the beginning of the sixties, is characterized by
the intensive emigrations of the Turks
.
Comparatively small is the number of Mace¬
donians and other citizens that left the country.
-
The second period
-1961-1975,
is coinciding with the economic emigration
-
tempo¬
rary employment abroad and permanent emigrations in the over-the-ocean countries.
-
In the third period
- 1976-1990,
there was decreasing employment abroad of the
Macedonian citizens, more intensive return of the migrant workers, the juncture of
the families of those that stayed, the self-reproduction of the migration contingent and
394
Summary
.gradual transformation of the temporary stay abroad into permanent one. The emi¬
gration is again intensified at the end of the eighties.
-
The time frame since the gain of the independence of the Republic of Macedonia up
until now is observed as a separate period, when the largest emigration wave since
the start of the economic emigration was encountered.
>
The analysis of the contemporary emigration from the RepubKc of Macedonia showed
that, because of the lack of comprehensive data from the domestic and foreign sources
it is very difficult to determine its amount and dynamics.
>
When quantifying the emigration, it is necessary to have in mind the movements from
the different areas of Macedonia within its ethnic boundaries. It is because of the volu¬
me of the emigration into the over-the-ocean countries, of which it is not easy to differen¬
tiate the citizens of the Republic of Macedonia. Based on several approximations the
number of Macedonian emigrants from all the parts of Macedonia into the over-the-
ocean countries is amounting between
500
and
550
thousand persons. We estimate the
share of the migrants from the Republic of Macedonia at about
30,0%.
>
The quantification of the total number of citizens of the Republic of Macedonia that left
the country since
1945
up until now, is based on all available administrative and statisti¬
cal data sources, the approximations of other authors, as well as on the cognition on the
size of the net migration. Based on those data, the estimate for different time frames
was made. Those estimates showed that between
1945
and
1961,
from the Republic of
Macedonia
left at least
170
thousand persons, in the sixties
(1961-1971) -
between
95
and
100
thousand, since
1971
up to
1981 -
around
70
thousand, and in the time frame
1981-1994 - 140
to
150
thousand persons.
^ In all those approximations of the volume of emigration, the persons that returned in the
country and those born abroad were not counted. Because of lack of relevant data, if
one assumes that the number of returned persons and the persons born abroad is equal
in the whole observed period, then, by our estimate, the total number of citizens that left
the Republic of Macedonia since
1945
up until now, would be between
525
and
540
thousand persons.
^ The approximation of the total number of the Macedonian citizens that currently live
abroad showed that it is very large, amounting between
320
and
350
thousand persons.
It represents between
16,1%
and
17,6%
of the total population in
1999.
With the trans¬
formation of the temporary into permanent movements, as well as with the recent inten¬
sification of the emigration processes, the Republic of Macedonia is permanently losing
significant part of its population.
^ The only available data that would be the basis in determining the changes in the size,
the regional specifics and the structural characteristics of the population and the labour
force emigration, are the census data. Even though its scope is incomplete, the informa¬
tion on the tendencies and some cognition on the changes that happened can be ob¬
tained. From the detailed analysis of that data, several conclusions were done.
-
The number of migrants is constantly increasing, reaching in
1994
an amount of
173.611
persons. The share of the migrants from the rural areas is prevailing, even
with the significant increase of the emigration from the urban areas.
395
-,
Between
1971
and
1994,
the share of the family members in the total migration
contingent increased from
3,6%
to
49,5%,
It is indicating that the temporary emigra¬
tion is gradually transforming into permanent one.
-
One of the characteristics of the emigration is emphasized regional differences. Ac¬
cording to the share of the migrants in the total population, two groups of emigratory
municipalities are isolated. The first one
-
Resen
(26,3 %)
and
Bitola
(25,4%)
and the
second one
-
Demir Hisar,
Ohrid, Struga,
Tetovo, Gostivar and Kitchevo, where this
share ranges between
10,6%
and
19,6%.
In the
1981-1994
time frame, in
17
municipa¬
lities the increase of the migrants is greater than the state average
(72,0%),
which is
implying increasing scale of the emigratory movements.
-
As for the gender structure of the migration contingent, the rise of number of women
happened, especially the active ones. The composition of the migration contingent,
based on the age, showed that a significant vital part of the population is staying
abroad. Namely, very significant are the data on the migratory generation ratios,
according to which the migrants are in average younger than the total population in
the country. In
1994,
abroad was comparatively large part of the basic age contin¬
gents of the total population
(6,9%
of children,
9,9%
of younger
population,
9,4%
of
working-age population and
8,1%
of Women s fertile contingent).
-
According to the nationality in
1994,
largest share belongs to the Macedonians and
the Albanians
- 62,6%
and
29,6%
respectively. The number of migrants of Albanian
nationality is registering a permanent rise, especially in the
1981-1994
time frame,
when the number of the family members was also rising.
-
The changes in the number and structure of the migrants based on the education are
very emphasized. Especially large is the rise of number of persons with finished high
school, college and faculty education. It confirms the indicators based on which one
person with faculty education (college or faculty) in
1971
was joined by
19
persons,
while in
1994
by only
1,3
uneducated person.
-
A specific characteristic of our emigration is large share of emigrants in over-the-
ocean countries. Even though the census data are incomplete, yet it is a base for
relevant cognition on the continued direction of migrants toward specific areas in the
same countries, which is indicating the existence of the migration links
.
-
The duration of stay of migrants is confirming the lasting of those movements and its
intensity in particular time intervals. In
1994,29,3%
of migrants was staying abroad
up to
5
years and
30,3%
of them longer than
20
years.
-
The return streams register a tendency of decline. The number of returnees from
abroad, from about
20.800
in
1981,
decreased to
14.000
persons in
1994.
More than
half of them were staying abroad up to five years.
II. The Emigration and the Socio-economic Development of
the Republic of Macedonia
>
By the research, we found out that the contemporary emigratory movements from the
Republic of Macedonia were under the influence of numerous and varying factors that
396
Summary
would be difficult to totally comprehended and to adequately systematize. Of those,
several groups of factor are distinguished.
- ■ ■
The continued emigration rise is corresponding to the changes in the socio-economic
development of the country. It began in the circumstances of deep changes in the
total development and the economic reform in
1965.
The failure of this and other
reforms contributed to the reduction of the dynamics of the economic growth and
numerous social disruptions. In the eighties, the development stagnation, and then
deep social and economic crisis happened, which was accentuated in the transition
period.
-
There was a strong influence on the size of the emigration from the long-term, very
high, visible unemployment. Together with the unemployment increase, the number
of over-employment was also increasing, which at end of eighties reached the unem¬
ployment level. In the nineties, the transition lead,to significant employment decrease
and enormous rise in the unemployment rate, which, based on all the estimates, is
higher than
30,0%.
-
We are identifying the intensive and chaotic deagrarization process as one of more
significant factors for the emigratory movements. Inadequate treatment of the village
and lack of basic premises for its development did stimulate the emigration from
those areas.
-
The economic development was not the only determinant of large regional differen¬
ces in the intensity of emigration. Namely, of
14
municipalities that between
1971
and
1994
did have a status of underdeveloped municipalities, only six were in the group of
significantly emigratory areas.
-
The rise in the number of migrants in part of the areas with high natality from the
western part of the country, among the other things, is under the influence of incre¬
ased population concentration, especially the agricultural population.
-
The tradition, the formation of numerous Macedonian communities and the estab¬
lished migratory links represent significant, if not crucial determinant of the contem¬
porary emigration from the traditionally emigratory areas and, after
1981,
from the
municipalities in the western part of the country.
-
The significant factor which is influencing the decision of young specialists and highly
educated cadres to leave the country is seriously disrupted system of values in the
last two decades
-
lack of respect to the work, workmanship underrate, limited possi¬
bilities of professional promotion, lack of responsibility which is accompanied with
highly developed system of privileges etc.
-
By having a large migration potential in the country, very significant factors that were
intensifying the emigration were the changes in the immigration policies of the recei¬
ving countries. The increased selectivity in accepting the migrants emphasized the
emigration of highly educated cadres.
>
Having in mind the existence of numerous factors that influence the changes in the size
and the dynamics of the emigration from the Republic of Macedonia and its different
manifestation for the country as a whole and by particular areas, we tried to elucidate it
397
from a different angle, by applying the method of multiple straight-line regression and
correlation. In the same time, the correlation between the emigration and Gross Domes¬
tic Product per capita, the unemployment rate, the crude rate of natural population
increase, the agrarian population, the realized investments per capita and the share of
employed in the total population was analyzed.
The results of the sample from thirty municipalities in the country in
1971,
as well as for
the sample from the twelve municipalities with high emigration intensity in
1971
and
1981,
showed that the selected independent variables represent the significant determi¬
nant of those movements. Based on the analysis of
1981
for the first sample and of
1994
for both samples, the majority or none of the selected variables in the model did not have
statistical significance. So, we concluded that the emigration rise in the last decade is
under the influence of some other factors
-
tradition, migration links, disrupted system of
values, etc.
>
Through the research, we found out that the consequences and implications of the
emigration are numerous and very complex, and are manifested in several domains. As
for the socio-economic development, of special significance is its influence on the demo¬
graphic and economic development.
>
Migratory movements from the Republic of Macedonia toward abroad became the
integral part of the movement of the total population. Today, the emigration have large
influence on the demographic development of the country.
-
The established census data on the total population with and without migrations in
1994
showed that, as a consequence of those migrations, the amount of total popula¬
tion was decreased by
8,2%,
and for the rural population
-
by
11,7%.
Based on our
approximations, without the migration component, the amount of total population to¬
day would be larger by
15,0%
of the current situation, and for the rural population by
more than
20%.
-
The consequences on the total population growth based on the natural increase of the
migration contingent are also significant. By the Census in
1981,19.478
persons born
abroad were registered. That number since
1981
up until now, based on our estimate,
is amounting at least
30.000
children, whish is almost one-year number of live-born
children in the country in the past several years.
-
Within the regional frames, the implications of those movements on the population
increase are more significant in the emigratory areas. So, the number of total popula¬
tion in the municipalities of Gostivar, Kitchevo,
Struga
and Tetovo decreased betwe¬
en
8,9%
and
11,9%,
whereas in the municipality of Demir Hisar this loss is reaching
about one quarter
(24,0%),
and in the municipality of
Ohrid
one fifth
(19,5%).
The
indirect calculations show that the loss is larger in the traditionally emigratory areas
were, under the influence of the emigration, the demographic situation is seriously
worsened. !
-
Large changes in the size and structure of the basic contingents of the Macedonian
citizens abroad did have adverse effect on the demographic development of the country.
The data shows that the direct and indirect influence of the emigration on the age
structure of the population and the acceleration of demographic aging processes are
398
Summary
increasing. Those effects are particularly influencing the rural areas and the tradi¬
tionally emigratory municipalities.
>
Having in mind the economic character of the emigration/the consequences and impli¬
cations on the labour force and the employment are different and correspond to the
changes of the size, structural characteristics and time of stay of the active part of the
migration contingent.
-
In the beginning, the temporary employment abroad was a possibility to relax the
unemployment problem, recovery of the labor-force market, as well as an opportuni¬
ty to acquire migrants new knowledge and skills. Because, in the meantime, the
provisions for the intensification of the return streams were not created, the expected
effects of those movements were not fulfilled.
-
The transformation of the temporary migrations into permanent ones lead to the loss
of signifi cant part of the labour force. According to the
1994
census data, the amount
of the total working-age population as a result of the emigration is smaller by
9,3 %,
and the active one by
11,3%.
But we estimate that the values of those indicators are
really larger for at least
50,0%.
In those circumstances, the valorization of the influence
of the emigratory movements on the relaxation of the unemployment problem in the
country is getting a different meaning, because when there is a permanent loss of
part of the labour force, the loss is too high. The mutual rise of the emigration and the
unemployment unambiguously indicate that the problem of unemployment is not re¬
laxed nor solved in that way.
-
The negative effects of the emigration on the labour force are especially manifested
in the rural areas, where the number of the working-age population is smaller by
14%,
and of the active population by about
20%.
It influenced the reduction of the
agricultural labour force, it s aging and the disruption of the interrelation between the
labour force and the available production capacities in the agriculture in the traditionally
emigratory municipalities.
У
The trend of increase of the migration of the persons with higher education level and
highly skilled cadres, as well as the young scientists from particular faculties, is implying
the negative effects in many domains.
-
Even though there are no relevant data on the size and structure of this category of
migrants, based on several indices, one can conclude that its size is significant. The
short-term and long-term consequences and implications are huge. They are primari¬
ly manifested on the area of economy and the development of the country, also on the
demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the labour force, scientific and
research activities, etc.
-
Direct losses because of the outflow of educated and highly skilled cadres concer¬
ning the expenses made for its rising and education, are very high. But, the negative
implications are even larger having in mind the expected effects arising from its
economic engagement in the country. The experience shows that those losses are
incomparably larger than the direct losses.
399
>
The foreign currency inflow from Macedonian citizens abroad is one of the develop¬
ment resources coming from the emigration. The changes in its size, even though they
follow the dynamics of the emigration, do not correspond to the total number of mi¬
grants. The causes should be sought in the transformation of the temporary migration
into permanent one and in the mistakes in the economic policy.
-
The available data on the foreign currency inflow refer to only a part of financial
potential of the migrants. The largest part of its savings remains in the banks of the
receiving countries. The total financial potential of our citizens abroad can be esti¬
mated to almost several billion American dollars.
-
The analysis of the participation on the gross and net foreign currency inflow in the
particular key positions of the balance of payment of the country between
1978
and
1998,
showed that those were and remained quiet significant. It is a result of the long-
term stagnation and deep economic crisis, especially during the transition period.
-
As for the internal financial streams, the inflow of foreign currency until the begin¬
ning of nineties was the prevailing component in the structure of citizens total foreign
currency savings. Because of its large share in the long-term foreign currency poten¬
tials of the banks, they were a significant resource in financing the development
activities of the country.
-
The data on gross balances of receipts and payments of the population and other
relevant information have shown that the emigration did have a positive influence on
payment-enabled demand of the population. Because of permanent economic crisis,
the remittances from abroad influenced the improvement of the standard of living of
the population in the emigratory areas.
-
The positive influence of the foreign currency remittances from abroad and other
allowances of the population on the economic development of the country were omit¬
ted. Even though they were only a part of the total financial potential of the migrants,
its size was not small and if those funds were productively utilized, it could contribute
to the stimulation of the economic activities and larger involvement of the labour
force. The largest part of those funds was utilized in maintaining the families, in
buying the real estate, in acquiring permanent consumption goods etc.
>
The influence of the contemporary economic emigration on the socio-economic develop¬
ment of the Republic of Macedonia is manifested by the short-term and insufficiently
expressed development effects, but numerous long-term negative consequences and
implications. So, we estimate that the overall effect is very adverse. The continued
increase of the emigration did not contribute to the substantial change in the develop¬
ment tendencies and in overcoming the problem of insufficient development. The re¬
sults of the research showed that, by the emigration the Republic of Macedonia perma¬
nently lost significant part of its population and labour force. In those circumstances the
foreign currency inflow cannot compensate the human potential loss, because in a small
country, as the Republic of Macedonia is, such an emigration intensity does have nega¬
tive long-term influence on the demographic development. It rises the essential issues
related to the future existence as a state.

Summary
III. The Emigratory Movements and the Socio-economic
Development of the Municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen.
>
The traditionally emigratory municipalities
-
Bitola
and
Resen,
are two of the areas of
the current territory of the Republic of Macedonia from which the migratory move¬
ments toward abroad last for more than a century.
. >.
Having in mindthe lasting of this process, it is very difficult to determine its total amount.
The
1994
census data showed that more than one quarter of the population and labour
force of those two municipalities is abroad. Thereat, prevailing is the share .of the mi¬
grants from the rural areas.
.
-
The municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen
are distinguished by the demographic and
socio-economic characteristics of the migrants. High is a share of the women in the
total, as well as in the active migration contingent. Quit large are the parts of the
migrants in the basic age contingents of thetotal population. In
1994,
the share of the
children (aged
0-14)
in the corresponding contingents of the total population was
amounting:
24,0%
in
Bitola,
22,1%
in
Resen;
of the young persons (aged
15-29)
30,7%
and
32,6%
respectively, of the working-age population
- 27,4%
and
29,4%
respectively, and of women in the fertile age in the total fertile contingent
- 28,2%
and
. 29,3%
respectively.
■
-
The contemporary emigration from those areas, because of the prevailing direction
•
toward the. over-the-ocean countries (Australia, U.S.A., Canada) is a continuity of
the migrations that started a century ago. In the last four decades the directions of
movements remained almost unchanged. One of additional specifics of the emigra¬
tion is its duration of stay of the migrants. In
1994,
more than half of the total number
of migrants and about three quarters of the active migration .contingent was abroad
for longer than
20
years. Because relatively small number of persons returned into
those municipalities, one can conclude that the emigration from
Bitola
and
Resen
is
practically permanent emigration.
>
The basic determinant of the large size and intensity of those movements from the
analyzed areas, by other conditions being equal-
itì
other parts of the country, is the
already established tradition of emigration in the over-the-ocean countries and the esta¬
blished migration links. It is influencing the emigration process, so that it will start sooner
and will reach larger proportions.
>
The. research showed that the consequences and implications on the demographic and
economic development of the municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen,
because of the long-
lasting intensive emigration, are numerous and very emphasized.
■ >
According to the
1994
census data, as a consequence of those movements, the munici¬
palities of
Bitola
and
Resen
have permanently lost around one third
(33,8%
and
35,3%
respectively) of the total number of inhabitants. The size.of .the rural population is lesser
for
77,0%
in
Bitola
and for
55,0%
in
Resen.
Under the influence of the emigration, large changes arose in me demographic and
socio-economic characteristics of the population. The age pyramids of the population
give a pictorial expression of the population age-gender structure
-
with and without
401
migrations.
There, it is shown that the direct and indirect influence of the emigration on
the intensification of the process of demographic aging, especially in the rural areas, is
very emphasized.
>
The implications on the economic development are highly negative. The
1994
census
data have shown that
Bitola
have permanently lost more than one1 third, and
Ŕesen
around two quarters of labour force; Having in mind the demographic and socio-econo¬
mic characteristics of the migrants, it is a huge loss of high quality human potential.
Even with such proportions of the emigration, the unemployment decrease did riot hap¬
pen.,

-
The negative effects are particularly manifested in the rural areas, where labour
force loss is reaching the enormous proportions, based on the situation in
1994 -
around
90,0%
in
Bitola
and
75,0%
in
Resen.
As a result, there were very negative
implications on the size and structural characteristics of the total and the active agri¬
cultural population* the utilization of the available production capacities and the develop¬
ment of the agricultural activity.
-
Because the permanent emigration was prevailing, the contemporary emigration did
not have a positive effect on the economic development of the municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen.
The effects of so-called circular migration flows were minimal, and in
the last decade almost negligible. The comparative analysis
óf
the economic develop¬
ment of those municipalities has shown that, during the intensive migratory move¬
ments, more significant dynamization of its economic development, modernization of
-the economic structure, significant employment increase and resolution of the unem¬
ployment problem did not happen. According to the level of development, between
1971
and
1994
Resen
remained in the group of underdeveloped areas, whereas
Bito¬
la
from the eighth place did slide to 15-th place in
1985.
>
The results of the research in the municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen
confirmed the
theoretical and empirical cognition that most pictorial representation notion on the mi¬
grations and the development are obtained by conducting the research on smaller areas.
IV. The Emigration and Future Socio-economic Development
of the Republic of Macedonia
>
The cognition on the potential migration which today, according to several indices and
individual estimates, have reached alarming dimensions, refer to the conclusion that the
emigration from the Republic of Macedonia will continue in the future; with compara¬
tively large intensity. Part of it are the unemployed and employed persons, primarily
those with higher education, part of the young scientists from the faculties of the natural
and technical sciences as well as the persons that are acquiring abroad their education
or professional development.
The transformation of the potential migration into definite one will depend on the future
development processes in the country, changes in the personal appraisal of the persons
intending to move abroad, and in a great extend, immigration policies of the potential
receiving countries. Having in mind the realistically achievable dynamics of the econo¬
mic growth and the possibilities in resolving the unemployment problem, one can esti-
402
Summary
mate that on the short and medium term, the Republic of Macedonia will face compara¬
tively large migration potential and still intensive emigration.
>
The consequences and the implications of the emigration on the demographic and eco¬
nomic development will be determined by the current and future volume and intensity of
those movements. The projections for the population up to
2020
show that, if the emi¬
gration continues with the same intensity, it will have considerable influence on the
future population increase and the acceleration of the demographic aging process. The
future emigration of persons with higher degree of education will be reflected on the
volume and quality of the available labour force and it could cause the disruption in the
structural, sectoral and regional distribution of the labour force in the country. The in¬
flow of foreign currency will in the future depend on the share of the permanent and
temporary migrations and the volume of the return streams. Its influence on the balance
of payment and internal financial flows, as well as on the improvement of the wealth
and standard of living of part of the population, will be of great significance.
^ The problem of intensive emigration cannot be overcome by partial short-term measu¬
res. The solution is to be sought in a comprehensive medium and long-term development
policy. The numerous limitations, which today the country faces, are prompting a se¬
lective approach to the problem and socially rational selection of priorities. In reducing
the enormous scale of emigration and potential migration in the medium-term, the prior¬
ities of the country should be in overcoming social and economic crisis, in reducing the
unemployment, in stimulating and supporting the scientific and research activities and in
creating the provisions for the intensification of return streams.
^ The absence of the migration policy in the Republic of Macedonia in the last four deca¬
des emphasized the negative effects of the emigration. Defining and acquiring the con¬
sistent and transparent long-term migration policy is today imposed as inevitable. It
should be directed toward overcoming the current situation of sizeable permanent emigra¬
tions and utilizing large available potentials of migrants in the benefit of the development
of the country. It implies corresponding measures and instruments to stimulate the tempo¬
rary employment and stay abroad, the activities related to the return of the migrants and
its
reintegration in
the economic and social life, as well as the measures aimed at incre¬
asing the foreign exchange inflow and its productive utilization.

SUMMARY
The international migrations in the second half of the twentieth century in the world did
have a tendency of continued increase. In the recent years, the total amount of international
migrants is estimated at about
125
million persons, or
2,0%
of the total world population. The
considerable intensity of those migratory movements did raise an immense interest of the
scientific thought from several scientific disciplines. The results of the research indicated a
particular changes in the cognition about the international migrations and the development.
The Republic of Macedonia is one of the countries where the emigratory movements in
the last four decades have registered continued growth. The subject of this examination is the
contemporary international migrations, the emigration from the Republic of Macedonia and
the socio-economic development. It arose from the cognition on the changes in the size and
the intensity of those movements from our country and the necessity of its observation in the
context of the whole international migration streams and trends in the world. By the research
in the first part, the essential theoretical and empirical cognition about the contemporary
international migrations and the development are encompassed. In the second half, the situ¬
ation in the Republic of Macedonia as a whole and its emigratory areas since
1945
up until
now, are analyzed.
,
The aims of the research are as follows: to have an overview of the changes in the
theoretical cognition and the experience concerning the interaction between the international
migrations and the development; to identify the dimensions arid the basic characteristics of
the contemporary emigration from the Republic of Macedonia
-
as a total and regionally; to
acquire the relevant cognition about the causes, the consequences arid the implications of the
emigration on the development of the country; to identify the influence of those migratory
movements on the development of the emigratory areas by the samples of the municipalities
of
Bitola
and
Resen;
to identify the necessary presuppositions to decrease the intensity of the
permanent emigrations, to actuate a return streams as well as to stress the inevitability of
active migration policy existence.
Several relevant statements, conclusions and suggestions arose from the research in
this work.
391
Part One
I. The Basic Theoretical and Empirical Cognition on the
International Migrations
>
The complexity of the interdependence of the migrations and the socio-economic develop¬
ment is stressing the need make a clear distinction between the different kinds of the
international migrations. In that context, from several classifications, the most acceptable
is the definition of the economic migration and the refugees.
>
In the contemporary theoretical discussions on the international migrations and the de¬
velopment, two opposite stands are differentiating for some time, For those who belong
to the neoclassical, or the theory of balance, the international migrations have a positive
influence on the development of the receiving countries and of the countries of origin
and contribute to the increase of the production in the world. According to the theory of
assymmetricity, the migrations are widening the differences in the development level.
The unsustainability of the neoclassical theory is arising from the substantially changed
character of those migratory movements and the obvious irreconcilability of the theory
and practice.
The cognition about even more limited role of the international migrations as a factor of
the development and the decrease of its amount in the future, did initiate the discussions
about finding the alternative solutions. There is a common opinion that those alternative
solutions are to be primarily sought in the development strategy of open economies,
which would ensure a sustainable economic development of the countries of origin and
the emigratory pressure decrease. Based on those discussions, three strategies in opening
toward the external world distinguish: construction of free industrial zones, free trade,
foreign direct investments and the official development aid. The importance of the free
industrial zones in actuating the regional development and opening new work places is
irrefutable. But they cannot absorb all the excess labour force and secure the integrated
development, which is the way to eliminate the causes of the emigration. When great
differences in the level of the development exist, the free trade as such could not repre¬
sent an alternative to the migratory movements. So, we estimate that the orientation
should be primarily toward the foreign direct investments and the different kinds of
financial aid.
>
The determinants of the international migrations are different and very complex. The
research showed that they are primarily caused by the economic factors: the differenc¬
es in the level of economic development; the poverty; the deagrarization processes; the
employment and unemployment; the changes in the economic cycles; the differences in
the level of wages etc. Of increasing influence are the processes of global economic
restructuring and the intensification of the regional economic integrations, which will not
decrease the emigratory pressure in the short and medium term. Relatively significant is
the influence of some non-economic and subjective factors. Of those, the emphasized
influence do have the differences in the demographic development, the migratory pressure
and the establishment of the migration networks that are identified as factors of perma-
392
Summary
nent preservation of those movements. When the significant migratory pressure exists,
the restrictive immigration policies are an essential limiting factor.
>
The analysis of the theoretical discussions on the influence of the international migra¬
tions on the socio-economic development of the immigratory and the emigratory coun¬
tries showed that the consequences and the implications are numerous, some of them
different now than three decades ago.
-
The influence on the demographic development is reflected on the movement of the
total number of citizens and the changes in the components of natural movements,
the demographic and socio-economic structure of the population in receiving coun¬
tries and in countries of origin. During its determination in the contemporary condi¬
tions, it is necessary to respect substantially changed demographic context in which
those movements are taking place. The result of the recent studies showed that the
international migration does not have anymore the
redistributive
potential of the past.
-
The implications of the international migrations on the economic development of the
receiving countries are positive and are manifested by muMplicating
macroeconomic
effects on the labour force market, the economic growth, the organization of the
production process and technology selection, social net system etc.
-
As far as the
macroeconomic
consequences and implications of the emigration are
concerned, unquestionable is the favorable influence of the temporary migration, un¬
less the positive effects of the unemployment decrease, the inflow of the foreign
currency, the new knowledge acquired by the migrants are to be utilized. The conse¬
quences of the long-term emigration and permanent emigrations are negative be¬
cause of the loss of high-grade human potential. In such circumstances, the socio-
economic transformation and surpassing the development problems of the countries
of origin are not secured.
II. The International Migrations and the Socio-economic
Development of Particular Regions in the World
^ As for the experiences about the interaction between the contemporary international
migrations and the development, the situation in Europe, U.S.A, Canada and Australia
are analyzed in particular. The determination toward those areas, among other things, is
because of the prevailing direction of the emigration from the Republic of Macedonia
toward those countries.
>
The available data on the permanent immigration in the U.S.A, Canada and Australia
show that the immigration is registering the changes only on the dynamics and the
structural characteristics of the immigrants. Between
1965
and
1989,
about
18,4
million
persons have immigrated into those countries, of which
65,0%
in the U.S.A,
20,0%
in
Canada and
15,0%
in Australia. On the contrary, the international migrations in Europe
are characterized by very large changes in the kinds, the amount, the intensity and the
directions of the movements. Of those, the migrant workers and members of their families,
the migration East-West, the asylum seekers and the refugees are singled out. Even it is
not easy to determine its volume, the available data is giving a partial notion on the
situation and the movements influenced by several demographic, socio-economic, politi¬
cal and other motives.
393
>
The consequences and the implications on the demographic development are different.
In the receiving countries those are obviously positive. Based on the estimates; by the
United Nations, between
1950
and
1989,
the contribution of net migration on trie rate of
total population increase in the U.S.A. is amounting
23,0%,
in Canada
-
25?0%, in Aus¬
tralia
- 41,0%
and in the European countries between
10,0%
and
50,0%.
Illustrative is
the sample of Germany, where after
1970,
the source of the total population increase is
the immigration. The projections of the future movements show that in those areas, with
the immigration in the first half of the 21-th century, the population decrease could be
stopped only if the continued acceptance of larger number of immigrants would be
allowed. But, the negative effects of significantly low fertility could not' even be com¬
pensated in that way. Unlike those countries, in the countries of origin, the direct and
indirect effects of the emigration over the population growth are negative.
>
The influence of the international migrations on the economic development of the re¬
ceiving countries is positive, and is a result of the permanent reassessment of its immi¬
gration policies and the increased selectivity in accepting
thé
immigrants. The countries
of origin did not succeed in fully utilizing the advantages of the temporary emigration.
The negative influences are particularly large in the countries where the emigration is
happening for many decades and is also characterized by very large outflow of highly
! qualified cadre. That is confirmed by the changes and widening
thé
differences in the
level of development and the standard of living of the population in immigratory and
emigratory countries in the observed regions, that happened in last four decades.
Part Two
I. The Size and the Characteristics of the Contemporary Emigration
from the Republic of Macedonia
>
As for the external migrations of the Republic of Macedonia during longer time frame,
the prevailing emigration is typical. Its current territory is traditionally emigratory area
for more than one hundred years.
>
By the analyses made we concluded that the changes in the size and the character of
the emigration, since
1945
up until now, are corresponding to the phases of the social
and economic development of the country and the changes of the migration policies of
the receiving countries. By our opinion, four periods are singled out.
-
The first one, starting in
1945
up until the beginning of the sixties, is characterized by
the intensive emigrations of the Turks
.
Comparatively small is the number of Mace¬
donians and other citizens that left the country.
-
The second period
-1961-1975,
is coinciding with the economic emigration
-
tempo¬
rary employment abroad and permanent emigrations in the over-the-ocean countries.
-
In the third period
- 1976-1990,
there was decreasing employment abroad of the
Macedonian citizens, more intensive return of the migrant workers, the juncture of
the families of those that stayed, the self-reproduction of the migration contingent and
394
Summary
.gradual transformation of the temporary stay abroad into permanent one. The emi¬
gration is again intensified at the end of the eighties.
-
The time frame since the gain of the independence of the Republic of Macedonia up
until now is observed as a separate period, when the largest emigration wave since
the start of the economic emigration was encountered.
>
The analysis of the contemporary emigration from the RepubKc of Macedonia showed
that, because of the lack of comprehensive data from the domestic and foreign sources
it is very difficult to determine its amount and dynamics.
>
When quantifying the emigration, it is necessary to have in mind the movements from
the different areas of Macedonia within its ethnic boundaries. It is because of the volu¬
me of the emigration into the over-the-ocean countries, of which it is not easy to differen¬
tiate the citizens of the Republic of Macedonia. Based on several approximations the
number of Macedonian emigrants from all the parts of Macedonia into the over-the-
ocean countries is amounting between
500
and
550
thousand persons. We estimate the
share of the migrants from the Republic of Macedonia at about
30,0%.
>
The quantification of the total number of citizens of the Republic of Macedonia that left
the country since
1945
up until now, is based on all available administrative and statisti¬
cal data sources, the approximations of other authors, as well as on the cognition on the
size of the net migration. Based on those data, the estimate for different time frames
was made. Those estimates showed that between
1945
and
1961,
from the Republic of
Macedonia
left at least
170
thousand persons, in the sixties
(1961-1971) -
between
95
and
100
thousand, since
1971
up to
1981 -
around
70
thousand, and in the time frame
1981-1994 - 140
to
150
thousand persons.
^ In all those approximations of the volume of emigration, the persons that returned in the
country and those born abroad were not counted. Because of lack of relevant data, if
one assumes that the number of returned persons and the persons born abroad is equal
in the whole observed period, then, by our estimate, the total number of citizens that left
the Republic of Macedonia since
1945
up until now, would be between
525
and
540
thousand persons.
^ The approximation of the total number of the Macedonian citizens that currently live
abroad showed that it is very large, amounting between
320
and
350
thousand persons.
It represents between
16,1%
and
17,6%
of the total population in
1999.
With the trans¬
formation of the temporary into permanent movements, as well as with the recent inten¬
sification of the emigration processes, the Republic of Macedonia is permanently losing
significant part of its population.
^ The only available data that would be the basis in determining the changes in the size,
the regional specifics and the structural characteristics of the population and the labour
force emigration, are the census data. Even though its scope is incomplete, the informa¬
tion on the tendencies and some cognition on the changes that happened can be ob¬
tained. From the detailed analysis of that data, several conclusions were done.
-
The number of migrants is constantly increasing, reaching in
1994
an amount of
173.611
persons. The share of the migrants from the rural areas is prevailing, even
with the significant increase of the emigration from the urban areas.
395
-,
Between
1971
and
1994,
the share of the family members in the total migration
contingent increased from
3,6%
to
49,5%,
It is indicating that the temporary emigra¬
tion is gradually transforming into permanent one.
-
One of the characteristics of the emigration is emphasized regional differences. Ac¬
cording to the share of the migrants in the total population, two groups of emigratory
municipalities are isolated. The first one
-
Resen
(26,3 %)
and
Bitola
(25,4%)
and the
second one
-
Demir Hisar,
Ohrid, Struga,
Tetovo, Gostivar and Kitchevo, where this
share ranges between
10,6%
and
19,6%.
In the
1981-1994
time frame, in
17
municipa¬
lities the increase of the migrants is greater than the state average
(72,0%),
which is
implying increasing scale of the emigratory movements.
-
As for the gender structure of the migration contingent, the rise of number of women
happened, especially the active ones. The composition of the migration contingent,
based on the age, showed that a significant vital part of the population is staying
abroad. Namely, very significant are the data on the migratory generation ratios,
according to which the migrants are in average younger than the total population in
the country. In
1994,
abroad was comparatively large part of the basic age contin¬
gents of the total population
(6,9%
of children,
9,9%
of younger
population,
9,4%
of
working-age population and
8,1%
of Women's fertile contingent).
-
According to the nationality in
1994,
largest share belongs to the Macedonians and
the Albanians
- 62,6%
and
29,6%
respectively. The number of migrants of Albanian
nationality is registering a permanent rise, especially in the
1981-1994
time frame,
when the number of the family members was also rising.
-
The changes in the number and structure of the migrants based on the education are
very emphasized. Especially large is the rise of number of persons with finished high
school, college and faculty education. It confirms the indicators based on which one
person with faculty education (college or faculty) in
1971
was joined by
19
persons,
while in
1994
by only
1,3
uneducated person.
-
A specific characteristic of our emigration is large share of emigrants in over-the-
ocean countries. Even though the census data are incomplete, yet it is a base for
relevant cognition on the continued direction of migrants toward specific areas in the
same countries, which is indicating the existence of the migration links
.
-
The duration of stay of migrants is confirming the lasting of those movements and its
intensity in particular time intervals. In
1994,29,3%
of migrants was staying abroad
up to
5
years and
30,3%
of them longer than
20
years.
-
The return streams register a tendency of decline. The number of returnees from
abroad, from about
20.800
in
1981,
decreased to
14.000
persons in
1994.
More than
half of them were staying abroad up to five years.
II. The Emigration and the Socio-economic Development of
the Republic of Macedonia
>
By the research, we found out that the contemporary emigratory movements from the
Republic of Macedonia were under the influence of numerous and varying factors that
396
Summary
would be difficult to totally comprehended and to adequately systematize. Of those,
several groups of factor are distinguished.
- ■ ■
The continued emigration rise is corresponding to the changes in the socio-economic
development of the country. It began in the circumstances of deep changes in the
total development and the economic reform in
1965.
The failure of this and other
reforms contributed to the reduction of the dynamics of the economic growth and
numerous social disruptions. In the eighties, the development stagnation, and then
deep social and economic crisis happened, which was accentuated in the transition
period.
-
There was a strong influence on the size of the emigration from the long-term, very
high, visible unemployment. Together with the unemployment increase, the number
of over-employment was also increasing, which at end of eighties reached the unem¬
ployment level. In the nineties, the transition lead,to significant employment decrease
and enormous rise in the unemployment rate, which, based on all the estimates, is
higher than
30,0%.
-
We are identifying the intensive and chaotic deagrarization process as one of more
significant factors for the emigratory movements. Inadequate treatment of the village
and lack of basic premises for its development did stimulate the emigration from
those areas.
-
The economic development was not the only determinant of large regional differen¬
ces in the intensity of emigration. Namely, of
14
municipalities that between
1971
and
1994
did have a status of underdeveloped municipalities, only six were in the group of
significantly emigratory areas.
-
The rise in the number of migrants in part of the areas with high natality from the
western part of the country, among the other things, is under the influence of incre¬
ased population concentration, especially the agricultural population.
-
The tradition, the formation of numerous Macedonian communities and the estab¬
lished migratory links represent significant, if not crucial determinant of the contem¬
porary emigration from the traditionally emigratory areas and, after
1981,
from the
municipalities in the western part of the country.
-
The significant factor which is influencing the decision of young specialists and highly
educated cadres to leave the country is seriously disrupted system of values in the
last two decades
-
lack of respect to the work, workmanship underrate, limited possi¬
bilities of professional promotion, lack of responsibility which is accompanied with
highly developed system of privileges etc.
-
By having a large migration potential in the country, very significant factors that were
intensifying the emigration were the changes in the immigration policies of the recei¬
ving countries. The increased selectivity in accepting the migrants emphasized the
emigration of highly educated cadres.
>
Having in mind the existence of numerous factors that influence the changes in the size
and the dynamics of the emigration from the Republic of Macedonia and its different
manifestation for the country as a whole and by particular areas, we tried to elucidate it
397
from a different angle, by applying the method of multiple straight-line regression and
correlation. In the same time, the correlation between the emigration and Gross Domes¬
tic Product per capita, the unemployment rate, the crude rate of natural population
increase, the agrarian population, the realized investments per capita and the share of
employed in the total population was analyzed.
The results of the sample from thirty municipalities in the country in
1971,
as well as for
the sample from the twelve municipalities with high emigration intensity in
1971
and
1981,
showed that the selected independent variables represent the significant determi¬
nant of those movements. Based on the analysis of
1981
for the first sample and of
1994
for both samples, the majority or none of the selected variables in the model did not have
statistical significance. So, we concluded that the emigration rise in the last decade is
under the influence of some other factors
-
tradition, migration links, disrupted system of
values, etc.
>
Through the research, we found out that the consequences and implications of the
emigration are numerous and very complex, and are manifested in several domains. As
for the socio-economic development, of special significance is its influence on the demo¬
graphic and economic development.
>
Migratory movements from the Republic of Macedonia toward abroad became the
integral part of the movement of the total population. Today, the emigration have large
influence on the demographic development of the country.
-
The established census data on the total population with and without migrations in
1994
showed that, as a consequence of those migrations, the amount of total popula¬
tion was decreased by
8,2%,
and for the rural population
-
by
11,7%.
Based on our
approximations, without the migration component, the amount of total population to¬
day would be larger by
15,0%
of the current situation, and for the rural population by
more than
20%.
-
The consequences on the total population growth based on the natural increase of the
migration contingent are also significant. By the Census in
1981,19.478
persons born
abroad were registered. That number since
1981
up until now, based on our estimate,
is amounting at least
30.000
children, whish is almost one-year number of live-born
children in the country in the past several years.
-
Within the regional frames, the implications of those movements on the population
increase are more significant in the emigratory areas. So, the number of total popula¬
tion in the municipalities of Gostivar, Kitchevo,
Struga
and Tetovo decreased betwe¬
en
8,9%
and
11,9%,
whereas in the municipality of Demir Hisar this loss is reaching
about one quarter
(24,0%),
and in the municipality of
Ohrid
one fifth
(19,5%).
The
indirect calculations show that the loss is larger in the traditionally emigratory areas
were, under the influence of the emigration, the demographic situation is seriously
worsened. !
-
Large changes in the size and structure of the basic contingents of the Macedonian
citizens abroad did have adverse effect on the demographic development of the country.
The data shows that the direct and indirect influence of the emigration on the age
structure of the population and the acceleration of demographic aging processes are
398
Summary
increasing. Those effects are particularly influencing the rural areas and the tradi¬
tionally emigratory municipalities.
>
Having in mind the economic character of the emigration/the consequences and impli¬
cations on the labour force and the employment are different and correspond to the
changes of the size, structural characteristics and time of stay of the active part of the
migration contingent.
-
In the beginning, the temporary employment abroad was a possibility to relax the
unemployment problem, recovery of the labor-force market, as well as an opportuni¬
ty to acquire migrants' new knowledge and skills. Because, in the meantime, the
provisions for the intensification of the return streams were not created, the expected
effects of those movements were not fulfilled.
-
The transformation of the temporary migrations into permanent ones lead to the loss
of signifi cant part of the labour force. According to the
1994
census data, the amount
of the total working-age population as a result of the emigration is smaller by
9,3 %,
and the active one by
11,3%.
But we estimate that the values of those indicators are
really larger for at least
50,0%.
In those circumstances, the valorization of the influence
of the emigratory movements on the relaxation of the unemployment problem in the
country is getting a different meaning, because when there is a permanent loss of
part of the labour force, the loss is too high. The mutual rise of the emigration and the
unemployment unambiguously indicate that the problem of unemployment is not re¬
laxed nor solved in that way.
-
The negative effects of the emigration on the labour force are especially manifested
in the rural areas, where the number of the working-age population is smaller by
14%,
and of the active population by about
20%.
It influenced the reduction of the
agricultural labour force, it's aging and the disruption of the interrelation between the
labour force and the available production capacities in the agriculture in the traditionally
emigratory municipalities.
У
The trend of increase of the migration of the persons with higher education level and
highly skilled cadres, as well as the young scientists from particular faculties, is implying
the negative effects in many domains.
-
Even though there are no relevant data on the size and structure of this category of
migrants, based on several indices, one can conclude that its size is significant. The
short-term and long-term consequences and implications are huge. They are primari¬
ly manifested on the area of economy and the development of the country, also on the
demographic and socio-economic characteristics of the labour force, scientific and
research activities, etc.
-
Direct losses because of the outflow of educated and highly skilled cadres concer¬
ning the expenses made for its rising and education, are very high. But, the negative
implications are even larger having in mind the expected effects arising from its
economic engagement in the country. The experience shows that those losses are
incomparably larger than the direct losses.
399
>
The foreign currency inflow from Macedonian citizens abroad is one of the develop¬
ment resources coming from the emigration. The changes in its size, even though they
follow the dynamics of the emigration, do not correspond to the total number of mi¬
grants. The causes should be sought in the transformation of the temporary migration
into permanent one and in the mistakes in the economic policy.
-
The available data on the foreign currency inflow refer to only a part of financial
potential of the migrants. The largest part of its savings remains in the banks of the
receiving countries. The total financial potential of our citizens abroad can be esti¬
mated to almost several billion American dollars.
-
The analysis of the participation on the gross and net foreign currency inflow in the
particular key positions of the balance of payment of the country between
1978
and
1998,
showed that those were and remained quiet significant. It is a result of the long-
term stagnation and deep economic crisis, especially during the transition period.
-
As for the internal financial streams, the inflow of foreign currency until the begin¬
ning of nineties was the prevailing component in the structure of citizens' total foreign
currency savings. Because of its large share in the long-term foreign currency poten¬
tials of the banks, they were a significant resource in financing the development
activities of the country.
-
The data on gross balances of receipts and payments of the population and other
relevant information have shown that the emigration did have a positive influence on
payment-enabled demand of the population. Because of permanent economic crisis,
the remittances from abroad influenced the improvement of the standard of living of
the population in the emigratory areas.
-
The positive influence of the foreign currency remittances from abroad and other
allowances of the population on the economic development of the country were omit¬
ted. Even though they were only a part of the total financial potential of the migrants,
its size was not small and if those funds were productively utilized, it could contribute
to the stimulation of the economic activities and larger involvement of the labour
force. The largest part of those funds was utilized in maintaining the families, in
buying the real estate, in acquiring permanent consumption goods etc.
>
The influence of the contemporary economic emigration on the socio-economic develop¬
ment of the Republic of Macedonia is manifested by the short-term and insufficiently
expressed development effects, but numerous long-term negative consequences and
implications. So, we estimate that the overall effect is very adverse. The continued
increase of the emigration did not contribute to the substantial change in the develop¬
ment tendencies and in overcoming the problem of insufficient development. The re¬
sults of the research showed that, by the emigration the Republic of Macedonia perma¬
nently lost significant part of its population and labour force. In those circumstances the
foreign currency inflow cannot compensate the human potential loss, because in a small
country, as the Republic of Macedonia is, such an emigration intensity does have nega¬
tive long-term influence on the demographic development. It rises the essential issues
related to the future existence as a state.

Summary
III. The Emigratory Movements and the Socio-economic
Development of the Municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen.
>
The traditionally emigratory municipalities
-
Bitola
and
Resen,
are two of the areas of
the current territory of the Republic of Macedonia from which the migratory move¬
ments toward abroad last for more than a century.
. >.
Having in mindthe lasting of this process, it is very difficult to determine its total amount.
The
1994
census data showed that more than one quarter of the population and labour
force of those two municipalities is abroad. Thereat, prevailing is the share .of the mi¬
grants from the rural areas.
.
-
The municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen
are distinguished by the demographic and
socio-economic characteristics of the migrants. High is a share of the women in the
total, as well as in the active migration contingent. Quit large are the parts of the
migrants in the basic age contingents of thetotal population. In
1994,
the share of the
children (aged
0-14)
in the corresponding contingents of the total population was
amounting:
24,0%
in
Bitola,
22,1%
in
Resen;
of the young persons (aged
15-29)
30,7%
and
32,6%
respectively, of the working-age population
- 27,4%
and
29,4%
respectively, and of women in the fertile age in the total fertile contingent
- 28,2%
and
. 29,3%
respectively.
■
-
The contemporary emigration from those areas, because of the prevailing direction
•
toward the. over-the-ocean countries (Australia, U.S.A., Canada) is a continuity of
the migrations that started a century ago. In the last four decades the directions of
movements remained almost unchanged. One of additional specifics of the emigra¬
tion is its duration of stay of the migrants. In
1994,
more than half of the total number
of migrants and about three quarters of the active migration .contingent was abroad
for longer than
20
years. Because relatively small number of persons returned into
those municipalities, one can conclude that the emigration from
Bitola
and
Resen
is
practically permanent emigration.
>
The basic determinant of the large size and intensity of those movements from the
analyzed areas, by other conditions being equal-
itì
other parts of the country, is the
already established tradition of emigration in the over-the-ocean countries and the esta¬
blished migration links. It is influencing the emigration process, so that it will start sooner
and will reach larger proportions.
>
The. research showed that the consequences and implications on the demographic and
economic development of the municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen,
because of the long-
lasting intensive emigration, are numerous and very emphasized.
■ >
According to the
1994
census data, as a consequence of those movements, the munici¬
palities of
Bitola
and
Resen
have permanently lost around one third
(33,8%
and
35,3%
respectively) of the total number of inhabitants. The size.of .the rural population is lesser
for
77,0%
in
Bitola
and for
55,0%
in
Resen.
Under the influence of the emigration, large changes arose in me demographic and
socio-economic characteristics of the population. The age pyramids of the population
give a pictorial expression of the population age-gender structure
-
with and without
401
migrations.
There, it is shown that the direct and indirect influence of the emigration on
the intensification of the process of demographic aging, especially in the rural areas, is
very emphasized.
>
The implications on the economic development are highly negative. The
1994
census
data have shown that
Bitola
have permanently lost more than one1 third, and
Ŕesen
around two quarters of labour force; Having in mind the demographic and socio-econo¬
mic characteristics of the migrants, it is a huge loss of high quality human potential.
Even with such proportions of the emigration, the unemployment decrease did riot hap¬
pen.,

-
The negative effects are particularly manifested in the rural areas, where labour
force loss is reaching the enormous proportions, based on the situation in
1994 -
around
90,0%
in
Bitola
and
75,0%
in
Resen.
As a result, there were very negative
implications on the size and structural characteristics of the total and the active agri¬
cultural population* the utilization of the available production capacities and the develop¬
ment of the agricultural activity.
-
Because the permanent emigration was prevailing, the contemporary emigration did
not have a positive effect on the economic development of the municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen.
The effects of so-called "circular migration flows" were minimal, and in
the last decade almost negligible. The comparative analysis
óf
the economic develop¬
ment of those municipalities has shown that, during the intensive migratory move¬
ments, more significant dynamization of its economic development, modernization of
-the economic structure, significant employment increase and resolution of the unem¬
ployment problem did not happen. According to the level of development, between
1971
and
1994
Resen
remained in the group of underdeveloped areas, whereas
Bito¬
la
from the eighth place did slide to 15-th place in
1985.
>
The results of the research in the municipalities of
Bitola
and
Resen
confirmed the
theoretical and empirical cognition that most pictorial representation notion on the mi¬
grations and the development are obtained by conducting the research on smaller areas.
IV. The Emigration and Future Socio-economic Development
of the Republic of Macedonia
>
The cognition on the potential migration which today, according to several indices and
individual estimates, have reached alarming dimensions, refer to the conclusion that the
emigration from the Republic of Macedonia will continue in the future; with compara¬
tively large intensity. Part of it are the unemployed and employed persons, primarily
those with higher education, part of the young scientists from the faculties of the natural
and technical sciences as well as the persons that are acquiring abroad their education
or professional development.
The transformation of the potential migration into definite one will depend on the future
development processes in the country, changes in the personal appraisal of the persons
intending to move abroad, and in a great extend, immigration policies of the potential
receiving countries. Having in mind the realistically achievable dynamics of the econo¬
mic growth and the possibilities in resolving the unemployment problem, one can esti-
402
Summary
mate that on the short and medium term, the Republic of Macedonia will face compara¬
tively large migration potential and still intensive emigration.
>
The consequences and the implications of the emigration on the demographic and eco¬
nomic development will be determined by the current and future volume and intensity of
those movements. The projections for the population up to
2020
show that, if the emi¬
gration continues with the same intensity, it will have considerable influence on the
future population increase and the acceleration of the demographic aging process. The
future emigration of persons with higher degree of education will be reflected on the
volume and quality of the available labour force and it could cause the disruption in the
structural, sectoral and regional distribution of the labour force in the country. The in¬
flow of foreign currency will in the future depend on the share of the permanent and
temporary migrations and the volume of the return streams. Its influence on the balance
of payment and internal financial flows, as well as on the improvement of the wealth
and standard of living of part of the population, will be of great significance.
^ The problem of intensive emigration cannot be overcome by partial short-term measu¬
res. The solution is to be sought in a comprehensive medium and long-term development
policy. The numerous limitations, which today the country faces, are prompting a se¬
lective approach to the problem and socially rational selection of priorities. In reducing
the enormous scale of emigration and potential migration in the medium-term, the prior¬
ities of the country should be in overcoming social and economic crisis, in reducing the
unemployment, in stimulating and supporting the scientific and research activities and in
creating the provisions for the intensification of return streams.
^ The absence of the migration policy in the Republic of Macedonia in the last four deca¬
des emphasized the negative effects of the emigration. Defining and acquiring the con¬
sistent and transparent long-term migration policy is today imposed as inevitable. It
should be directed toward overcoming the current situation of sizeable permanent emigra¬
tions and utilizing large available potentials of migrants in the benefit of the development
of the country. It implies corresponding measures and instruments to stimulate the tempo¬
rary employment and stay abroad, the activities related to the return of the migrants and
its
reintegration in
the economic and social life, as well as the measures aimed at incre¬
asing the foreign exchange inflow and its productive utilization.
