Abstract: Skilled migration is analyzed through an analytical framework that so far has been essentially ignored in the specialized literature on the subject: the deep restructuration process to which innovation systems have been subjected under the context of neoliberal globalization and the leadership of the United States. Besides unraveling the main transformations undertaken by innovation systems worldwide, the explosive growth of patents that has taken place during the last two decades is analyzed. This trend has been accompanied by an increasing participation of scientists and technicians from peripheral and emerging countries. From this particular analytical lens and taking as a reference the Mexican case, several elements aimed at disentangling the new modalities of unequal exchange that have emerged along the North-South divide are provided. At the background of this embryonic trend underlies an unprecedented commodification and appropriation of knowledge, as an intangible common good.
