2004年5月1日欧盟扩大为10个新成员国后，欧盟内部的国际劳动力流动成为一个颇有争议的问题。本文着眼于高技能人群的国际流动：商科和商业专业的大学生。在此背景下，我们首先调查了欧洲各地的学生在理想工作中寻找的是什么，并表明东欧和土耳其的学生在这方面与其他欧洲国家的学生有很大的不同。在本文的第二部分，我们通过观察学生对自己国家/语言的依恋程度来评估他们是否有可能移居国外。这一分析表明，总体而言，东欧和土耳其的学生对国际工作的热情低于许多其他欧洲国家的学生。另一方面，文章的最后一部分表明，东欧和土耳其的学生在语言技能方面似乎普遍为国际工作做好了准备。他们更喜欢在英语国家和南欧国家工作，以前的国际经验和语言技能对国际流动的程度和方向产生了重大影响。
After the enlargement of the European Union (EU) with ten new countries on the 1st of May 2004, international labour mobility within the EU has become a rather contentious issue. This article looks at international mobility for a highly skilled group of people: university students in Business and Commerce. In this context, we first investigate what students across Europe are looking for in their ideal job and show that students from both Eastern Europe and Turkey differ substantially from other European countries in this respect. In the second part of this article, we assess whether students are likely to move internationally by looking at the extent to which they are attached to their own country/language. This analysis shows that, overall, students from Eastern Europe and Turkey are less keen to work internationally than students from many other European countries. On the other hand, the final part of the article shows that students from Eastern Europe and Turkey generally seem well prepared for international work in terms of their language skills. They prefer to work in Anglophone and Southern European countries and previous international experience and language skills are shown to be a major influence on the extent and direction of international mobility.
