IMPLICATIONS OF THE MIGRATION PHENOMENON ON ROMANIA’S NATIONAL SECURITY
IMPLICATIONS OF THE MIGRATION PHENOMENON ON ROMANIA’S NATIONAL SECURITY

Summary/Abstract: After the end of the Cold War, a range of international issues has become, in a very short time in some cases, a security subject. International migration - one of these subjects - shows particular shades from the perspective of security, especially because of the fact that its impact is analyzed and interpreted from a different perspective by the countries of origin, respectively as destination of international migration. The impact of migration is often measured through the tangible flows generated by the process or it focuses on the current results of the process. Of an equal importance to the national security are also the intangible flows, as well as the opportunity costs. In the case of Romania, the relationship between external migration and national security presents particularities in the current regional and international context. This paper aims to analyze those consequences (effects) of the external migration that seem to become possible risks for the national security on the long term.
