5. Communism‘s last decade (1980-1989) has cost
Poland 1.2 million of the best and the brightest
(http://focus-migration.hwwi.de/Poland.2810.0.html?&L=1)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Between 1980 and 1989, an estimated 1.1 to 1.3
million Poles have left Poland for good.
24,000 fewer inhabitants to make TRICITY
(ca. 2% of Polands population) smarter!

POLES IN THE UNITED
KINGDOM
>60,711 Polish-born (2001 Census)
>579,000 Polish-born (2011 Census)
>850,000 resident Poles (May 2012)
>637,000 Polish citizens residing in the
UK for more than 2 months (2013)
7. POLES IN GERMANY
Poles with Polish citizenship living 2013 in
Germany:
609.855
(“Ausländische Bevölkerung 2007-2013“;
destatis.)
People with ethnic Polish background 2009 in
Germany:
1.5 million
(Sebastian Nagel, Zwischen zwei Welten:
Kulturelle Strukturen der polnischsprachigen
Bevölkerung in Deutschland. Analyse und
Empfehlungen, Stuttgart: Institut für
Auslandsbeziehungen, 2009, p. 9.)
8. Just in 2012 Germany welcomed 184,325 Poles
(173,000 in 2011).[http://www.derwesten.de/wirtschaft/zuwanderung-nach-deutschland-auf-rekordhoehe-id7927281.html]
9. HOLDERS OF POLISH PASSPORTS LIVING ABROAD (IN MILLION)
[Polish Ministry of Finance; http://www.ft.com/intl/cms/s/0/47717194-4b80-11e2-88b5-00144feab49a.html#axzz3C3oBv7fI]
• 2011: 2.1 million
[=45,000 fewer
inhabitants
for making
TRICITY
smarter!]
10. If Germany is a reliable indicator for the ratio between
Polish passport holders living abroad and ethnic Poles living
abroad (1:2.5) there are some 5.5 million ethnic Poles abroad.
That is a total loss of ca.
110,000 smart inhabitants
that would have made TRICITY smarter.

12. Emigrants of the 1980s left two siblings behind to secure netto-reproduction.
Emigrants from 2010 ff. left less than one sibling behind,
thereby ending netto-reproduction.

lifetime) stood at ca.
• 3.5
• Poles of the cohorts 1990-
1994, who have been
emigrating 2010-2014,
were born at a time when
Poland‘s total fertility
(children in a woman‘s
lifetime) stood at ca.
• 1.7

children in a woman’s life time).
2 High elite emigration.
3 Low attraction for skilled immigrants.
4 Low innovation (few patents).
5 No technological leadership to set
prices.
6 Low competitiveness
7 Low quality of aging
