“…It is also argued that migration of professionals positively influences the formation of business networks in developing countries and helps those countries to become a part of international trade platforms (Docquier & Marfouk, 2004;Kone & Özden, 2017). For example, Khadria (2014) argues that Indian professional migrants are 'agents of development' who bring advanced technologies and investment opportunities to India.…”

“…Politikas līmenī aizvien vairāk valstu atzīst, ka nozīmīga ir ne tikai fi ziskas atgriešanās veicināšana, bet arī ciešāku sadarbības saišu veidošana ar diasporu (Meyer, 2001;Haas, 2006;Merz, Chen, & Geithner, 2009;. Vienlaikus daudzas valstis saskaras ar grūtībām politi kas formulēšanā, jo ir nepieciešams uzrunāt gan augsti kvalificētus, gan arī mazkvalificētus emigrantus, bet diasporas organizāciju līmenī šīs grupas bieži vien savā starpā nesadarbojas (Khadria, 2014).…”

Monogrāfijā augsti izglītoto emigrantu problēmas tiek skatītas mikro, mezo un makro līmenī. Tas ļauj pievērst uzmanību gan indivīdu izvēlēm, gan ģimenes un radinieku, gan sociālo tīklu un organizāciju ietekmei, gan arī ekonomiskiem un politiskiem faktoriem. Atbilstoši šiem līmeņiem veidots pētījuma teorētiskais pamats un Eiropas Savienības dalībvalstu un citu valstu emigrācijas pētījumu konteksts.

“…India is one of the countries actively seeking “development aid” from its diaspora, a process that started in the 1980s and has been steadily intensifying (Khadria, ; Lessinger, ). Since the release of the country's diaspora strategy (Singhvi, ), several measures have been undertaken to strengthen the ties between the diaspora and the “motherland.” One of the most effective ones was the development of a quasidual citizenship programme (Naujoks, ).…”

Indian nationals are a small but quickly growing migrant group in Germany that merits more research, especially related to remittance behaviour. Most of them are embedded in transnational networks; the remittances they send to India are an important way of expressing belonging, allowing the remitters to induce changes and fulfil traditional roles in spite of being physically absent. The findings presented in the paper's empirical section were collected with a mixed-methods-research approach. They are discussed against the background of the ongoing discourse on remittances and development. The idea of remittances as a better form of development aid is questioned. The article illuminates which types of remittances are important for Indian migrants in Germany, how the practice of remitting depends on the specific migration path, and how it differs between first and second generation. Analysis of the empirical results shows that seven types of remittances are relevant for Indian migrants in Germany. Individual remittances are more important than collective remittances, and parent support is the most important type of remittance. Charitable engagement within this group is highly individualised. The findings illustrate further how the remitting practices change over time-within life course and between generations.The results of this research show that as remittances for charitable reasons can only be considered as a highly personalised form of temporary engagement, it can be assumed that they hardly create sustainable structures. Individual remittances to family and friends, which are more important in this case study, do not necessarily result in desirable development.
