Abstract
In this paper we have undertaken a synthesis of implications from migration theory and presented some empirical evidence to argue against the formulation of purely defensive national migration policies driven by fears of mass-immigration. Although migration potential in some lower developed country is likely to grow, immigration of unskilled or semi-skilled migrants from third countries is largely demand based.
