Migracje międzynarodowe a globalny problem ubóstwa
International migrations and global poverty

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the article was to analyze international migration from countries with the highest poverty rate. The following hypothesis was set: international migrations cannot be considered as a measure significantly contributing to the reduction of poverty in the world. As stated, the poorest countries – even though they have the strongest incentives for emigration – have a limited international mobility. In addition, benefits from migration are limited, which raises a number of challenges, among others, to increase the positive impact of remittances as an instrument for working against extreme poverty.
