How the earnings growth of US immigrants was underestimated
Two radically different descriptions of immigrant earnings trajectories in the USA have emerged. One asserts that immigrant men, following the 1965 Immigration and Nationality Act, have low initial earnings and high earnings growth. Another asserts that the post-1965 immigrants have low initial earnings and low earnings growth. We describe the methodological issues that create this divide and show that low earnings growth becomes high earnings gr…
Immigration and the Labor Force
This entry examines how immigrants fare in their adopted country's labor market and their effect on the native‐born workforce. Illuminating the first issue requires measuring immigrant earnings growth. When no assumptions are imposed, an inverse relationship between immigrant entry earnings and earnings growth emerges: recent immigrants in the United States and Canada have low initial earnings, relative to natives and earlier immigrant cohorts, b…
U.S. Immigration Policy at a Crossroads
An ongoing debate is whether the U.S. should continue its family-based admission system, which favors visas for family members of U.S. citizens and residents, or adopt a more skills-based system, replacing family visas with employment-based visas. In many ways, this is a false dichotomy: family-friendly policies attract highly-skilled immigrants regardless of their own visa path, and there are not strong reasons why a loosening of restrictions on…
Implications for social security policy‐making of research in mortality 1
The main purpose of this article is to outline the relationship between mortality research and policy-making in social security. Reasons are first discussed as to why more information is needed for social security purposes on how and why mortality varies over time periods and across population groups. There follows a synopsis of the correspondence between the type of policy question asked and the kind of research required to answer it. The paper …
