Resumo: | Workers’ mobility, particularly the skilled ones, appears in the literature as one of the major forms of knowledge spillovers. Thus, using a balanced panel of 5015 municipalities over the years 2001 and 2007, this study is aimed at appraising what cities’ characteristics attract skilled migrants. The model with no spatial control provides biased estimates. This sheds lights on the importance of controlling the spatial dependence and unobserved regional characteristics in the estimation of the model. After controlling for spatial dependence, there is evidence that skilled migrants prefer cities with higher expected income, population, GDP per capita and degree of industrialization. Furthermore, they prefer both cities with less crime and traffic and cities that provide better public transportation. The main findings reveal the relevance of surrounding regional characteristics to explain skilled migration flows. |

Sendo assim, a partir de um painel balanceado composto por 5015 municípios e abrangendo os anos de 2001 e 2007, o presente estudo visa avaliar as características das cidades que mais atraem o migrante qualificado. Constata-se que o modelo sem controle espacial fornece estimativas viesadas, enfatizando, assim, a importância do controle da dependência espacial e das características regionais não observadas na estimação do modelo. Ao controlar para dependência espacial, observa-se uma preferência dos migrantes qualificados por cidades com renda esperada, população, PIB per capita e grau de industrialização elevadas. Além disso, preferem tanto cidades com menor criminalidade e tráfego, quanto cidades que oferecem melhor transporte público. Os principais resultados revelam a relevância das características regionais dos vizinhos para explicar os fluxos migratórios de pessoas qualificadas.UFRGS2014-09-02info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/AnaliseEconomica/article/view/2301510.22456/2176-5456.23015Análise Econômica; Vol. 32 No. 62 (2014): setembro de 2014Análise Econômica; v. 32 n. 62 (2014): setembro de 20142176-54560102-9924reponame:Análise Econômica (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)instacron:UFRGSporhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/AnaliseEconomica/article/view/23015/31299Copyright (c) 2019 Análise Econômicainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTaveira, Juliana GonçalvesAlmeida, Eduardo Simões de2022-11-21T19:19:49Zoai:seer.ufrgs.br:article/23015Revistahttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/AnaliseEconomicaPUBhttps://seer.ufrgs.br/index.php/AnaliseEconomica/oai||rae@ufrgs.br2176-54560102-9924opendoar:2022-11-21T19:19:49Análise Econômica (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS)false |
