Russian technology and highly educated personnel on the modern American market

Abstract

The economic and social aspects of the Russian technology and manpower transfer to the American market are under research. While analysing the direct and indirect forms of the work of the Russian highly educated personnel for American companies, main case studies are made in software industry. The stimulus for the Russian personnel's direct outflow to the American labor market (produced both by Russian and American sides), as well as its economic and social consequences are under special consideration. There is also a detailed analysis of offshore programming. Technology and manpower transfer via partnership in the Russian-American joint ventures is also analysed in the research. Space launching is picked out as the most interesting example here.
