Notes	Renata Bertotti (2008). Migratory Decision-making in Post Civil War Bosnia - A Case Study of Banja Luka City This paper examines the potential for loss of human capital and brain drain from Banja Luka, the capital of Bosnia and Herzegovina a Serb entity, Republika Srpska. The migratory decisions of young people betweenthe ages 18-35 in the study area were analyzed with a focus on the level of their educational attainment and the relevant push / pull factors that affect their decisions to remain or migrate from Banja Luka. Data was collected during the field portion of this research in 2004, using a survey questionnaire and personal interviews designed to address the main hypotheses of this research. The study findings suggest that although the potential for human capital loss is very high, the college-educated young individuals are, at least for the time being, the least likely to emigrate from Banja Luka. Existing employment and salary policies are designed to ensure a relatively comfortable life for Banja Luka's collegeeducated, multi-lingual elite. Those young adults without a college degree however cannot compete for well paying jobs and overwhelmingly prefer emigration of a permanent nature. The study further supports the importance of economic factors, gender and presence of children in a person's migratory decision process. This research offers valuable insight at post civil war related migration and the challenges young adults face in post war environment.
