Abstract:
This study focused on doctoral recipients in social science disciplines and their decision making about returning to the native country upon graduation. In interviews of faculty who studied PhD students, we found that plans to return were associated with a blend of cultural, family, and academic ties. Political and economic factors interact with the influence of family ties. They were also apparent in the perceived prestige of studying abroad, which was believed to lead to a certain job offer from a university.
