Economic reasons are considered the main factor for professionals to move with limited influence by the spouses, the tied migrants. The analysis of qualitative interviews with 38 German families who moved temporary to the United States show that the interests of the spouse, cultural curiosity about a global world, and the work itself are equally important to economic gains. Women's progress in education and paid work, have changed the role of the tied migrant and its influence on the settlement or return decision.New Americans (LFB Scholarly Publishing LLC)Foreign workers, GermanUnited StatesBrain drainGermanyProfessional employeesUnited StatesProfessional employeesGermanyImmigrantsUnited StatesSocial conditionsGermanyEmigration and immigrationSocial aspectsUnited StatesEmigration and immigrationSocial aspectsForeign workers, GermanBrain drainProfessional employeesProfessional employeesImmigrantsSocial conditions.331.6/243073Eich-Krohm Astrid1962-1811440MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910967313303321German professionals in the United States4363316UNINA
