Summary/Abstract: Migration is not a new phenomenon, it means there are always in different ways, and became a global affecting the majority of the countries on the world map. The aim of this research is to study the phenomenon of migration, and how it is reflected in public policies. After 1989, with the fall of the Communist regime in Romania, migration has become a worrying phenomenon, up to 15 percent of Romania's population, leaving the country and then emigrating to the country such as Israel, Turkey, Italy, Hungary, Germany, Spain etc. Permanent migration grew rapidly in the first years after the revolution, dropping further, due to the difficulties to obtain a long-term residence and work permit in the host countries. However, temporary migration has evolved very dynamic, requiring an economic analysis of possible positive or negative externalities of this phenomenon.
