Recenzii
"Great textbook for undergraduate, interdisciplinary classes on immigration! It provides an up-to-date summary of key research findings regarding migration flows over the past decades, focusing on their determinants and selectivity, as well as on the assimilation of migrants and their impact on receiving and sending economies. Overall, a useful and clear introduction to the economics of immigration and a prerequisite to immigration policy discussions."
Catalina Amuedo-Dorantes, Professor of Economics, University of California, Merced
"The Economics of Immigration covers the breadth and depth of the economic analysis of migration. For each topic, the book provides an intuitive summary of the theory, an overview of the state-of-the-art research as well as interesting case studies from all over the world. The book is an indispensable resource for students interested in the causes and consequences of migration."
Benjamin Elsner, Assistant Professor of Economics, University College Dublin
"The authors have created a thoroughly accessible, informative, and authoritative introduction to the economics of immigration. The book is particularly effective at presenting formal economic models in an understandable way and at providing a well-rounded synthesis of the empirical research on the economics of immigration. This textbook is unique in that it goes beyond theory and covers an extensive range of relevant topics and current policy discussions with remarkable breadth and depth. This is an outstanding and comprehensive resource for any student studying migration."
Mary Lopez, Professor of Economics, Occidental College
"Bansak, Simpson, and Zavodny have written an ideal textbook for undergraduate students interested in the economics of emmigration. The text examines the economic costs and benefits of the migration experience from the perspective of immigrants, residents of origin countries, and people in the destination. The authors cover a range of immigration issues while providing important context for understanding how and why academics sometimes disagree about the economic causes and consequences of migration."
Chad Sparber, W. Bradford Wiley Professor of Economics, Colgate University
"The past two decades have seen economists’ interest in immigration grow from beyond the labor market effects on wages and employment to virtually every facet of the economy. Recent research has examined the relationship between immigration and economic growth, fiscal policy, income mobility, law, health, housing, families, innovation, and more. Bansak, Simpson, and Zavodny have managed to distil this vast body of literature into a format that is easily accessible to anyone interested in immigration policy. The result is a textbook than can simultaneously be assigned in both an upper-division economics course and introductory courses on immigration across the social sciences."
