Authors : Zehouani Marwa . Tobbi Aicha .

Abstract

This study aims to shed light on the impact and consequences of brain drain on economic growth between Algeria and the European Union during the period from 1990 to 2018, relying on a comparative analysis between the two regions thru some indicators that play a significant role in brain drain, such as capital inputs, labor inputs, hours, quality, total factor productivity, information and communication technology, etc. One of the most important findings of this study is that the Algerian economy faces significant challenges due to the brain drain, especially with its heavy reliance on oil and gas and its chronic economic problems.
