Romania suffered one of the most severe population declines\, with a 10 per cent loss in the fifteen years to 2007- the year in which Romania joined the EU.\nI will discuss Romania’s case in a comparative perspective and analyze the likely outcomes of migration on short and longer term. While emigration served as a safety valve in a time of poor employment opportunities and led to high levels of remittances\, the long term implications are negative: smaller working-age population\, loss of educated youth\, and skills shortages. In addition to the social and economic effects of migration\, I will examine its impact on political culture and institutions.
