The research‐policy nexus: the case of unauthorised Mexico–US migration and US policy responses

The research‐policy nexus: the case of unauthorised Mexico–US migration and US policy responses Demographers have been more successful reaching agreement on the number of unauthorised foreigners in the United States, (estimated to number around 12 million) than economists have been in reaching consensus on the economic impacts of the mostly low‐skilled unauthorised workers in the US labour market, (who number perhaps 6 million). Some economists have found significant adverse effects of low‐skilled unauthorised workers on comparable US‐born workers, while others have found positive effects of low‐skilled immigrants on US workers. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Population, Space and Place Wiley

Abstract

Demographers have been more successful reaching agreement on the number of unauthorised foreigners in the United States, (estimated to number around 12 million) than economists have been in reaching consensus on the economic impacts of the mostly low‐skilled unauthorised workers in the US labour market, (who number perhaps 6 million). Some economists have found significant adverse effects of low‐skilled unauthorised workers on comparable US‐born workers, while others have found positive effects of low‐skilled immigrants on US workers.
