Wright* The relocation of jobs abroad by multinationals and the increased labor market competition due to immigrant workers are often credited with the demise of many manufacturing jobs once held by American citizens. While it is certainly true that manufacturing production and employment, as a percentage of the total economy, have declined over recent decades in the United States, measuring the impact of those two aspects of globalization on jobs has been difficult.

  • “Brain Drain” from Italy?
    HOW LARGE IS THE “BRAIN DRAIN” FROM ITALY? SASCHA O. BECKER ANDREA ICHINO GIOVANNI PERI CESIFO WORKING PAPER NO. 839 CATEGORY 4: LABOUR MARKETS JANUARY 2003 An electronic version of the paper may be downloaded • from the SSRN website: www.SSRN.com • from the CESifo website: www.CESifo.de CESifo Working Paper No. 839 HOW LARGE IS THE “BRAIN DRAIN” FROM ITALY? Abstract Using a comprehensive and newly organized dataset the present article shows that the human capital content of emigrants from Italy significantly increased during the 1990’s . This is even more dramatically the case if we consider emigrating college graduates, whose share relative to total emigrants quadrupled between 1990 and 1998. As a result, since the mid-1990’s the share of college graduates among emigrants from Italy has become larger than that share among residents of Italy. In the late nineties, between 3% and 5% of the new college graduates from Italy was dispersed abroad each year. Some preliminary international comparisons show that the nineties have only worsened a problem of ”brain drain”, that is unique to Italy, while other large economies in the European Union seem to experience a ”brain exchange”. While we do not search for an explanation of this phenomenon, we characterize such an increase in emigration of college graduates as pervasive across age groups and areas of emigration (the North and the South of the country). We also find a tendency during the 1990’s towards increasing emigration of young people (below 45) and of people from Northern regions. JEL Classification: F22. Sascha O.

  • Impact of Migration on Income Levels in Advanced Economies Florence
    Impact of Migration on Income Levels in Advanced Economies Florence Jaumotte, Ksenia Koloskova, and Sweta C. Saxena1 Abstract: This paper examines the longer-term impact of migration on the GDP per capita of receiving advanced economies. Addressing carefully the risk of reverse causality, it finds that immigration increases the GDP per capita of host economies, mostly by raising labor productivity. The effect—while smaller than in earlier estimates—tends to be significant: a one percentage point increase in the share of migrants in the adult population can raise GDP per capita by up to 2 percent in the long run. Both high- and low-skilled migrants contribute, in part by complementing the existing skill set of the population. Finally, the gains from immigration appear to be broadly shared. JEL Classification: E24, E25, F22, F62, J15, J24, J61 Keywords: international migration, productivity, inequality, skilled migration 1. Introduction Immigration has taken center stage in the western political dialogue recently, even though labor is the least mobile factor of production. In 2010, migrants constituted only 3 percent of the world population, while trade in goods accounted for about 30 percent of world GDP and capital 15 percent of total world investment. Immigration has also long been a controversial topic among economists (Card, 2009). A long-standing literature analyzes the impact of immigrants on labor market outcomes (i.e. wages and employment) for natives. For instance, Borjas (2003, 2006) and Aydemir and Borjas (2007, 2011) document a negative impact on low-skilled natives’ wages in the U.S. labor market, while Card (1990) finds no impact on wage and employment of native U.S.

  • Selected Issues in the Rise of Income Inequality
    10922-10a_Gordon.qxd 1/25/08 11:24 AM Page 169 ROBERT J. GORDON Northwestern University IAN DEW-BECKER Harvard University Selected Issues in the Rise of Income Inequality INCREASED AMERICAN INCOME INEQUALITY, in particular the increased skewness at the very top of the income distribution, has received enormous attention. This paper surveys three aspects of rising inequality that are usu- ally discussed separately: inequality within the bottom 90 percent, inequality within the top 10 percent, and international differences in inequality, par- ticularly among top earners. We begin by examining data from the Current Population Survey (CPS) on income ratios between the 90th, 50th, and 10th percentiles, both for men and women separately and for the two sexes combined. We then examine several proposed explanations of changes in relative incomes within the bottom 90 percent, including the impacts of unions, free trade, immigration, the real minimum wage, and top-bracket tax rates. We also assess the hypothesis that the primary driver of increased inequality is skill-biased technological change. We then tackle the most controversial issue, namely, why American incomes at the very top have increased so much, both relative to incomes below the 90th percentile in this country and relative to top incomes in Europe and Japan.1 We distinguish three types of top-level income earners: We are grateful for superb research assistance from two Northwestern undergraduates, Bobby Krenn and Neil Sarkar, and for helpful comments from David Autor, Polly Cleve- land, Xavier Gabaix, James Heckman, and Lawrence Katz. This is a drastically shortened version of a complete survey soon to be available as a National Bureau of Economic Research Working Paper.

  • Immigration Economics: a Review David Card Giovanni Peri UC
    Immigration Economics: A Review David Card Giovanni Peri UC Berkeley UC Davis and NBER and NBER April, 2016 Abstract We review Immigration Economics (IE) by George J. Borjas, published in 2014 by Harvard University Press. The book is written as a graduate level textbook, and summarizes and updates many of Borjas' important contributions to the field over the past 30 years. A key message of the book is that immigration poses significant costs to many members of the host‐country labor market. Though the theoretical and econometric approaches presented in the book will be very useful for students and specialists in the field, we argue that book presents a one‐sided view of immigration, with little or no attention to the growing body of work that offers a more nuanced picture of how immigrants fit into the host country market and affect native workers. *We are extremely grateful to Gaetano Basso and Ingrid Hägele for their assistance. Immigration Economics: A Review George Borjas is the leading economic scholar of immigration. Over the past three decades he has authored or co‐authored dozens of papers that have opened up new lines of investigation and help frame the way that economists think about immigration. He has also written two previous books on the topic – Friends or Strangers? The Impact of Immigrants on the U.S. Economy in 1990, and Heaven’s Door: Immigration Policy and the American Economy in 1999 – and contributed important reviews to the Journal of Economic Literature and the Handbook of Labor Economics. Borjas’ new book, Immigration Economics (IE), summarizes much of his past work, updating the empirical work in some of his seminal papers and addressing concerns that have been raised by other researchers (including us).

  • Rationalizing U.S. Immigration Policy: Reforms for Simplicity, Fairness, and Economic Growth
    DISCUSSION PAPER 2012-01 | MAY 2012 Rationalizing U.S. Immigration Policy: Reforms for Simplicity, Fairness, and Economic Growth Giovanni Peri MISSION STATEMENT The Hamilton Project seeks to advance America’s promise of op- portunity, prosperity, and growth. We believe that today’s increasingly competitive global economy demands public policy ideas commensurate with the challenges of the 21st Century. The Project’s economic strategy reflects a judgment that long-term prosperity is best achieved by fostering economic growth and broad participation in that growth, by enhancing individual economic security, and by embracing a role for effective government in making needed public investments. Our strategy calls for combining public investment, a secure social safety net, and fiscal discipline. In that framework, the Project puts forward innovative proposals from leading economic thinkers — based on credible evidence and experience, not ideology or doctrine — to introduce new and effective policy options into the national debate. The Project is named after Alexander Hamilton, the nation’s first Treasury Secretary, who laid the foundation for the modern American economy. Hamilton stood for sound fiscal policy, believed that broad-based opportunity for advancement would drive American economic growth, and recognized that “prudent aids and encouragements on the part of government” are necessary to enhance and guide market forces. The guiding principles of the Project remain consistent with these views. Rationalizing U.S. Immigration Policy: Reforms
