Philip Martin (economics, U. of California-Davis), Susan Martin (international migration, Georgetown U.), and Weil (French National Research Center, Paris) report findings from the Cooperative Efforts to Manage Emigration (CEME) project bringing together 25 North American and European researchers, policy makers, and administrators to conduct background research and visit sites in areas that offer potential best practices to manage migration. Coverage includes the framework guiding the project; the results of the investigations; the team's recommendations; site reports focusing on regional migration within the European Union, between Europe and African countries of emigration, and migration in the Americas; the global migration of Philippine and Chinese nationals; and a proposed framework for sustainable migration management that supports the interests of source countries, destination countries, and the migrants themselves. For researchers, scholars, students, policy makers, and administrators. Annotation ©2006 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
