The interrelationship between migration and household education, depending on certain socioeconomic circumstances, is a complex and multidimensional phenomenon. Migration contributes to the household education through both social and economic remittances. Moreover, the circumstances like urban and rural set up may also have an influence on educational attainment of the households because both have different educational infrastructures. Likewise, from a better destination, people can bring economic and social remittances that can have an influence on education. Hence, the migration-education relationship is more multifaceted than the migration-wellbeing relationship. It is, therefore, difficult to draw a straightforward conclusion about the link between migration and education without assessing other decisive factors, e.g. social and economic remittances. Under the aforesaid circumstances, this study aims at understanding the implications of remittances on household education from a holistic perspective, therefore, divided into two separate parts, the quantitative and the qualitative one. I used the Household Income and Expenditure Survey (HIES) 2010 dataset of Bangladesh for the quantitative analysis by focusing on the economic remittances, where the outcome variables are, the per capita education expenditure and the average years of schooling. To examine the implication of economic remittances, a comparison is drawn between the households having a migrant member and households having no migrant member. I introduced a distinction between international and internal migration, and also investigated if the type of migration (i.e. internal or international) matters for the effect of migration on education outcomes. The study found that households having a migrant member invest more in the household education compared to the households having no migrant member. Furthermore, this study explores the role of educational infrastructure on the household education outcome. By investing more in childrens education, the households are trying to build a human capital that can help diversifying the risks and secure the future household income. The outcome of this study supports the livelihood theory (Ellis, 1998) and the New Economics of Labor Migration (NELM) theory (Stark, 1991). In addition to economic remittances, I have addressed the effects of social remittances, including attitude, knowledge and skills, learned by the migrants from the host countries on childrens education. To do so, I have interviewed the returnees from Malaysia and the Middle East comprehensively. The findings indicate that the social remittances have influences on childrens education and these findings support the theory of social remittances by Levitt (1998). This study attempts to address the role of social and economic remittances on education, from both quantitative and qualitative perspectives, complementing each other. But the quantitative and qualitative parts of the analysis are not used for triangulation purpose. Hence, this study is expected to contribute to the existing literature on the migration-education nexus

This book examines how migrant remittances contribute to household social resilience in rural Bangladesh. Using a mixed methods approach, the authors show that remittances play a crucial role in enhancing the life chances and economic livelihoods of rural households, and that remittance income enables households to overcome immediate pressures, adapt to economic and environmental change, build economic and cultural capital, and provide greater certainty in planning for the future. However, the book also reveals that the social and economic benefits of remittances are not experienced equally by all households. Rural village households endure a precarious existence and the potentially positive outcomes of remittances can easily be undermined by a range of external and household-specific factors leading to few, if any, benefits in terms of household social resilience.

Migration within and beyond the territory that now constitutes Bangladesh has historically been an important livelihood strategy for many of its people. Existing studies on migration and remittances in Bangladesh provide little insight on remittances from the perspective of migrant households and how migrant households use of this source of income. This study adopts a micro-social analysis of thirty six migrant households in three selected villages in Bangladesh to examine the contribution of remittances to migrant households. The ethnographic methodology used in this study aims to better understand the role of remittances at the level of the household. The study found that remittances do not occur in a social vacuum and are part of more complex phenomena of migration and labour. The inward remittances play an important role in providing new opportunities for migrant households and contribute to the resilience of migrant households as well as villages. The interviews with householders reveal that remittances make an important contribution to improving the economic circumstances of migrant households by contributing to their expenditure allocations, income diversification and spreading risk more generally.The study reveals that in the absence of formal or informal markets for credit, insurance and/or commodity exchanges, remittances respond to households' demands for financial resources. Remittances contribute to improving the life chances of individuals and households; they improve living standards by funding household expenditure on food, clothing, consumer goods, housing and the education of family members. The research data for this study depicts a more complex picture of remittances than has been presented by previous research and this in turn leads us to embrace a more cautious interpretation of the benefits of remittances. The study reveals that the social and economic benefits of remittances are not equally celebrated by all migrant households as one would anticipate; the poorest of the poor continue in their struggles for livelihood. However, even those who have benefitted least from migrant remittances recognise the importance of this source of income in transforming the social fortunes by enabling households to endure and overcome immediate pressures, respond to challenges as they arise and plan for the future. The study makes an important contribution in drawing attention to the concept of 'social resilience' as a theoretical tool for understanding and explaining the impacts of remittances on households.

International migration, the movement of people across international boundaries to improve economic opportunity, has enormous implications for growth and welfare in both origin and destination countries. An important benefit to developing countries is the receipt of remittances or transfers from income earned by overseas emigrants. Official data show that development countries' remittance receipts totaled 160 billion in 2004, more than twice the size of official aid. This year's edition of Global Economic Prospects focuses on remittances and migration. The bulk of the book covers remittances.

This paper presents an overview of legal framework of EU governing residence permits, employment pass and access to integration, describing the most frequent migration pathways employed by Bangladeshis in Italy. It discusses their migration trajectories, socio-demographic profile, the importance of remittances to Bangladesh, and the impact that Italian migration policy has had upon this group, as well as other non-EU nationals more generally. In this paper rural household micro quantitative data have been collected from Bangladesh to explore the relationship between legal status, remittance and socioeconomic impact at the left behind household members. Using univariate and multivariate model, investigate the factors determining of remittance inflows and their socioeconomic impact at their left behind rural household members. The empirical results suggest that there is economic variation between the documented and undocumented Bangladeshi migrants in Italy. While international migration is unlikely to provide a secure route out of positive socio-economic impact at their household for many Bangladeshis within a restrictive immigration environment, as they become trapped in more vulnerable and less sustainable migration processes. It concludes with a discussion of the socio-cultural integration of the Bangladeshi migrants in Italy and their future integration opportunities to other EU nations.

This paper, the Working-Lesser model has been applied to estimate the impact of remittances on households' expenditure patterns in Bangladesh. In order to investigate the expenditure patterns, we estimated the regressions for three different categories. The dataset which has used to examine the impact of remittances on household expenditure behaviour was obtained from the Household Survey in Sylhet Division in Bangladesh during the period January to June 2004. Given the specificities in the data, that is, the all positive numbers in current consumption variable and the presence of a considerable number of zero values in the durable goods and education categories, two different estimation methods have been used, that is OLS and Tobit. Regarding the factors affecting the expenditure patterns, the results suggested that as income in the household increases the share of expenditure in current consumption decreases. The effect of income is the opposite on the share of durable goods and education. The age-current consumption relationship is non-linear suggesting a U-shaped function and the lowest point being at the age. Home ownership increases the share of expenditure on current consumption and durable goods, while it decreases the category of education, perhaps reflecting some sort of economic security compared to their counterparts. The estimates suggest that the changes in income of households who receive remittances are spent differently compared to non-recipients across expenditure categories. However, years of migration are not found to affect expenditure patterns. Overall, the findings suggest that there is little evidence that changes in income levels for households receiving remittances are spent very differently from the households not receiving them. Finally, findings may indicate that the policy relevance for remittances is not as important as suggested by the literature for developing countries, especially for those with a similar profile to Bangladesh.
