The revision of the EU’s Blue Card Directive and its competitiveness against the national high-skilled migration schemes

Introduction:

This thesis attempts to explore whether the proposal for a new Blue Card policy provides for a viable point of departure to achieve the so far failing harmonisation of high-skilled migration policies in the European Union (EU). The paper particularly looks into the Dutch and the Swedish high-skilled immigration policies to compare them with the EU proposal, and attempts to explain (or perhaps predict) the Dutch and the Swedish position towards it based on the outcome of the question above.
