Abstract

Academic diasporas have an impact both on their host countries and their homeland during the process of knowledge creation and human capital stock increase. This study examines the effect of the reverse migration tendencies of academicians in the Turkish Diaspora on their academic productivity. In the study, data obtained from 466 Turkish scientists working in universities and research centers in Germany were analyzed through Probit Regression. According to the results, while the physical migration tendencies of the scientists in Diaspora have no significant effect on their academic productivity, the tendency of intellectual reverse migration affects academic productivity positively. Accordingly, the intellectual reverse migration tendency of scientists in the diaspora increases their academic productivity by 0.12%. In addition, it is concluded that the academic connections of the academic diaspora affect their academic productivity positively

Özet

Akademik diasporaların bilgi yaratım ve beşeri sermaye stoku artırım sürecinde hem bulundukları ülkelerde hem de anavatanları üzerinde etkileri söz konusudur. Bu çalışmada Türk Diasporasındaki akademisyenlerin tersine göç eğilimlerinin akademik verimlilikleri üzerindeki etkisi incelemektedir. Çalışmada, Almanya’daki üniversite ve araştırma merkezlerinde çalışan 466 Türk akademisyenden elde edilen veriler Probit Regresyon aracılığı ile analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, Diasporadaki bilim insanlarının fiziksel göç eğilimlerinin akademik verimlilikleri üzerinde anlamlı bir etkisi söz konusu değilken, fikirsel anlamda tersine göç eğilimi akademik verimliliği pozitif anlamda etkilemektedir. Buna göre diasporadaki bilim insanlarının fikirsel anlamda tersine göç eğilimi akademik verimliliklerini %0.12 oranında arttırmaktadır. Ayrıca akademik diasporanın uluslararası akademik bağlantılarının da akademik verimliliği pozitif etkilediği sonucuna ulaşılmaktadır.
