Abstract
In the literature on the relationship between migration and development, it is common to assess the impacts of migration on countries of origin and on destination countries separately (see Goldin, Cameron and Blarajan, 2011: 162‑210). Strictly speaking, this differentiation tends to correspond to another one, made in practice but rarely specified, which involves the overlap between country of origin and developing country, on the one hand, and between country of destination and developed country, on the other. Transposing many of the conclusions of this literature to analyse the impacts of emigration in a country of origin classified as of high human development, like Portugal, is often difficult, requiring a careful selection of what is or is not applicable and analytical readiness to identify and explain particular dynamics of this type of countries: developed countries of emigration.
