Hur påverkas ett lands offentliga ekonomi av invandring? Arena Idés chefsekonom Sandro Scocco skriver om hur länders ekonomi påverkas invandring på Social Europe.
Immigration seems to be a very good thing if you look at economic research, and not just in terms of benefits for public finances in the long run, but also for natives and even low-skilled natives. Fewer dirty jobs with better pay – who can say no to that? If this were a more common perception in UK, maybe even the Brexit debate would look a bit different. One reason for this might be that studies often used to calculate the “cost” of immigration, so-called cross-sectional calculation, have a methodological flaw which makes the result bleaker than it should be.
