Abstract: | In this paper, I empirically investigate the determinants of migration inflows into 14 OECD countries by country of origin
between 1980 and 1995. I analyze the effect on migration of average income and income dispersion in destination and origin
countries. I also examine the impact of geographical, cultural, and demographic factors as well as the role played by changes
in destination countries’ migration policies. My analysis both delivers estimates consistent with the predictions of the international
migration model and generates empirical puzzles. |
