Responding to Negative Public Attitudes towards Immigration through Analysis and Policy: Regional and unemployment dimensions
This paper examines two key dimensions of the impact of immigration for Australia and related policy aspects. One is sub-national and the other is national. They are, first, the regional location aspects of immigration and, second, the aggregate unemployment implications of immigration. These are chosen so as to focus on two important issues that condition public attitudes towards immigration. In relation to the first, there is a common positive …

Do Migrants Rob Jobs? Lessons of Australian History, 1861–1991
Historically, lands of recent settlement have had a thirst for immigrants, but one that has been procyclical (negatively related to unemployment rates).
