Our model shows that migration networks and … immigration policies, the initial pattern of migrants' self-selection on education, and the way time-equivalent migration costs by …

We find that droughts are associated with a higher probability of … migration intentions in Senegal, Niger and Ivory Coast. The effect on international migration intentions are only significant in …

Ecuador experienced an unprecedented wave of international migration since the late 1990s, triggered by a severe … Ecuadorian migrants: the US and Spain. First, we provide a careful description of the main characteristics of migration flows … countries, and attempt to reconcile the features of migration flows with our predictions for earnings by destination. We find …

Many empirical studies on the determinants of international migration flows rely exclusively on macro data, and do not … account for migrants' self-selection. We analyze a very interesting episode in international migration for which we are able … individual earnings and use them to estimate a discrete-choice migration equation that allows for correlated errors across …

The analysis of how the economic crisis in Europe has reshaped migration flows faces two challenges: (i) the … challenge by controlling for multilateral resistance to migration, and the second one by incorporating 10-year bond yields as an … explanatory variable in a study of European bilateral migration flows to Germany between 2006 and 2012. We show that, while …

The scale of international migration flows depends on moving costs that are, in turn, influenced by host … upon bilateral migration flows to multiple destinations. We rely on a Poisson pseudo-maximum likelihood estimator to derive … reflect the uncertainty connected to the use of aggregate data, and we show that bilateral migration flows can be highly …

The rate of migration observed between two countries does not depend solely on their relative attractiveness, but also … destinations on bilateral flows as Multilateral Resistance to Migration, and we show how it can be accounted for when estimating … the determinants of migration flows in the context of a general individual random utility maximization model.
