We place labor flows, involving both highly skilled professionals and unskilled workers, within the framework of research on world cities. These flows are central to understanding the growth of world cities, particularly those whose growth is not primarily a result of advanced producer services. The...

We conclude with an agenda for research on migration to world cities and the division of labor in those cities. | ||
