Sažetak
The paper takes a brief look into international scientific discourse concerning the nexus of skilled migration/mobility and diaspora engagement for homeland development. Like other countries with large diaspora and concerns about the impact of the increasing brain drain on local development, Croatia is targeting in particular highly skilled diaspora through outreach and return policies. Croatian programmes to initiate circulation dynamics for highly skilled professionals, such as scientists, present a local response to a problematic shared across the entire Central and South Eastern European region. In order to draw attention to the precarious relationship between policy intentions and actual experience and to address the sustainability aspect of brain gain policies that specifically target the return of highly skilled migrants and members of diaspora communities a shift to the actor´s perspective is proposed. Based on narrative interviews with scientists who have worked abroad and eventually returned to Croatia the role of networks and social capital, chances for knowledge transfer and adaption strategies have been identified as key aspects to observe when assessing sustainable reintegration and brain gain policies and possible spaces for agencies of change.
