Abstract:

The paper will explore the evolution of Romanian migration phenomenon and the influence of migration policy of European countries, in order to understand the mechanism of choosing the destination country for Romanian emigrants. What type of evolution knows the migration phenomenon from Romania? Which are the most important factors that influence the emigration from Romania? How does the mechanism of choosing the work destination country for the Romanian emigrants? We expect that during the pre-joining period the European countries with tolerant attitude towards immigrants, and frequent naturalization, or regularization procedures, to be mainly preferred by Romanian immigrants. The empirical support for these hypotheses is examined based on statistical analysis of data provided by the official organisms for statistics in Romania, the Public Opinion Barometer. Official statistics of other European countries on immigration affecting their country, including Romanian immigration, will also be studied.

Keywords:
