Social network benefits for cluster firms
Regional clusters facilitate social interaction and learning across firms. Here, we assess how social networks of firms influence their competitiveness in relation to cluster- and firm-characteristics. Using survey and administrative data, we simulate co-worker networks that, following the mobility of employees, generate links across companies. Analyzing Sweden’s ICT firms over 20 years, we find that inter-firm co-worker ties, even across compani…
The Transferability of Human Capital and Migrant Incorporation Strategies in the Swedish Labor Market
Migrants benefit differently from their educational credentials depending on their origin. We use the case of Sweden to study the strategies that migrants adopt to overcome barriers keeping them from fully using their education in the host society's labor market. We used administrative register data on employment, self-employment, unemployment, parental leave, and education to classify nine-year-long labor-market sequences of a cohort of migrants…
Kin Propinquity, Residential Mobility, and the Persistence of Segregation
This article presents an analysis of the relationship between kin propinquity, residential mobility, and the persistence of segregation among ancestry groups living in Stockholm, Sweden. Residential segregation between Swedish and non-Swedish ancestry groups is established when immigrants first settle in Stockholm, which creates disparities in the spatial distribution of kin for the children of immigrants compared with their Swedish counterparts.…
Insider Out
This article assesses the impact of household composition and intermarriage on foreign-born women's labor force participation in Japan, Sweden, and the United States. Whereas previous literature on immigrant integration and intermarriage has treated social integration and labor force participation as tightly interlinked phenomena, we use new and previously unavailable data on Japan and the literature on institutional gender inequality to show tha…
Migrant residential mobility and tenure transitions within different housing regimes
Migrant housing-related disadvantages and residential segregation are both important concerns in migrant-receiving countries. However, there exists little understanding about the connection between the two. According to the spatial assimilation framework, migrants who establish themselves in the labour market and experience income increase tend to move to higher-income neighbourhoods. However, migrant opportunities to rent or buy an apartment may…
New immigration destinations in Sweden
This paper aims to examine the residential trajectories of immigrants that intersect rural areas in Sweden. It adds to the literature on new immigration destinations (NIDs) and addresses the need to include migration routes intersecting rural areas, immigrants' secondary migration patterns and temporal dimensions of migration, as well as the multiplicity of migrants in such destinations. We examine whether NIDs have emerged in Sweden and immigran…
From Sequences to Variables
Sequence analysis is increasingly used in the social sciences for the holistic analysis of life-course and other longitudinal data. The usual approach is to construct sequences, calculate dissimilarities, group similar sequences with cluster analysis, and use cluster membership as a dependent or independent variable in a regression model. This approach may be problematic, as cluster memberships are assumed to be fixed known characteristics of the…
Trajectories of Spatial Assimilation or Place Stratification? A Typology of Residence and Workplace Histories of Newly Arrived Migrants in Sweden
In most societies, resources and opportunities are concentrated in neighborhoods and workplaces occupied by the host population. The spatial assimilation and place stratification theories propose trajectories (the sequences of events) leading to minority and migrant access to or exclusion from these advantageous places. However, most previous research on these theories did not ask whether such theorized trajectories occur. We apply sequence analy…
Tract level associations between historical residential redlining and contemporary fatal encounters with police
How does structural racism influence where people are killed during encounters with police? We analyzed geo-located incidents of fatal encounters with police that occurred between 2000 and 2020 in Census tracts that received a classification by the Home Owners Loan Corporation (HOLC) during the 1930's. Statistical models show that incidents of fatal encounters with police in formerly redlined areas are 66% more likely than in zones that received …
Migrants’ long-term residential trajectories in Sweden
Despite time being a key element in the theories on international migrants socio-spatial mobility, it has not been sufficiently addressed in empirical research. Most studies focus on discrete transitions between different types of neighbourhoods, potentially missing theoretically important temporal aspects. This article uses sequence analysis to study the residential trajectories of international migrants in Sweden emphasising the timing, order, …
