This essential volume examines the influence of immigrants on the process of international economic integration specifically, their influences on bilateral and multilateral trade flows. It extends beyond the identification and explanation of the immigrant trade link and offers a more expansive treatment of the subject matter, making it the most comprehensive volume of its kind. The authors present abundant evidence that supports the notion that immigrants exert positive influences on trade between their home and host countries and demonstrate that while the immigrant trade link may not be universal, the operability of the link depends on the conditions with which immigrants the world over are met. Applying the augmented gravity model to data on trade and migration, International Migration and Economic Integration provides answers to the following questions: Do immigrants exert positive influences on trade between their respective host and home countries? Are the effects of immigrants on trade homogenous across different immigrant entry classifications? Do the influences of immigrants on trade in goods extend to trade in services? Are these influences homogenous across product types and industry/sector classifications? Do differences in relative levels of economic and/or social development for immigrants host and/or home countries affect the existence or the magnitude of the immigrant trade link? Have immigration policies and changes in such policies influenced the immigrant-trade relationship? Do cultural differences between immigrants home and host countries inhibit trade flows and, if so, to what extent do the pro-trade influences of immigrants counter the trade-inhibiting effects of cultural distance? Is there variation in the pro-trade influences of immigrants across migration corridors? Is the influence of immigrants on trade conditional on the volume of trade taking place between their host and home countries? Are the effects of immigrants (emigrants) on trade universal? What factors/conditions correlate with the existence and operability of the immigrant trade relationship? Though ideally suited to advanced undergraduate and graduate students in international trade, international economics, public policy, sociology and international relations and their professors, this engaging work will also be relevant for anyone outside of academia who is interested in public policy, immigration, or international relations.

Migration, Unemployment and Trade focuses on the issues of migration, welfare and unemployment in a trade and development framework. Several chapters of the book analyze the implications of internal labor mobility in a model designed to highlight its implications for regional welfare, urban unemployment, rural-urban dichotomy and structural adjustment. An important innovation in this work is the disaggregation of the economy and the use of separate utility functions to highlight non-homogeneity of preferences. The book also deals with international mobility of factors in different frameworks. In particular it concentrates on the highly emotive issue of legal and illegal migration. Thus this work incorporates interesting and important features of labor economics and factor mobility into trade and distortion theory.

This paper investigates the relationship between international trade flows and immigration/emigration flows. Earlier work appears to have followed two discrete lines of inquiry. One strand of the literature is firmly rooted in the economics of international trade, while another approach employs methods of labor economics. More recently, a few authors have considered immigration policy and reform in a median voter framework of public choice. Virtually all of this literature however, is largely inaccessible to the legal community, in part because of the mathematical techniques employed. In this paper, we attempt to synthesize some of the existing theoretical and empirical literature and to place it in a legal context. The paper begins by observing that although, international trade flows have increased substantially over the preceding two decades, international migration flows have exhibited no such increase in spite of the secular fall in transport costs and information costs and despite increased wage differentials between rich and poor countries. This pattern is in sharp contrast to the pattern observed at the beginning of this century and during the 1960s in Europe when trade and migration flows both exhibited simultaneous sharp increases. The central question to be addresses by the paper is the extent to which trade flows may be substitutes for or complementary to flows of factors of production such as labor and capital. Furthermore, if a stable relationship is found to exist between trade and migration flows, then an immigration policy response say, to large uncontrolled flows of illegal labor, could well be fashioned in terms of trade policy. The standard result of relatively early vintage stems from work of Heckscher-Olin, Rybczynski, Samuelson-Stolper and Mundell. Essentially, with two inputs (factors of production), perfect competition and zero transportation costs, trade in goods can be shown to be fully substitutable with factor mobility (migration). The policy implications of the result are clear-- migration flows including illegal immigration can be stemmed through trade liberalization. When the theoretical framework is extended beyond the simple two-factor fully mobile factor context, the impact of trade liberalization on migration flows becomes ambiguous and depends upon specific parameter values. For example, it can be shown that in a Ricardian type framework where factor endowments across countries are identical but technologies vary, increased migration of labor can lead to increased capital-labor ratios and thereby, to increased trade. In other words, migration and trade flows act in a complementary fashion instead of being substitutes. Similarly, in a model where certain factors of production are specific to their uses (for example, land or non-moveable capital equipment), the impact of trade liberalization on the flows of internationally mobile factors such as labor, is ambiguous. More recent work in international trade incorporates increasing returns to scale and monopolistic competition. When increasing returns to scale are present (as for example, in the information industry) increased trade leads to greater specialization in the sector characterized by increasing returns to scale, to higher wages and to larger migration flows. Again, trade liberalization and migration flows are complementary rather than being substitutes. The issue naturally arises as to which model or framework is suitable or applicable to say, trade/migration in the NAFTA region or within the EU. There may be reason to believe that extant labor market rigidities and monopolistic competition are more prevalent in the EU than in the US so that the modern increasing returns to scale models may be more relevant to trade and migration flows within the EU rather than the Americas. The next part of the paper deals with normative issues. Given the existing trade regime, is it efficient (welfare enhancing) to liberalize or restrict international migration further? The results will depend in part, upon the welfare criterion adopted, i.e., host country welfare or global welfare, but also upon the model context. However, a surprisingly broad generalization (also noted recently by Chang) is that world welfare would generally be enhanced by liberalization of immigration restrictions in developed countries. If so, the question naturally arises as to why are inefficiently restrictive policies adopted. In the context of a median voter framework of public choice, it is possible to show that under certain plausible assumptions, the median voter may prefer a general ban on immigration, while at the same time supporting selective illegal immigration. The paper concludes with general discussion of the political economy of illegal immigration.

Two prominent features of globalization in recent decades are the remarkable increase in trade and in migratory flows between industrializing and industrialized countries. Due to restrictive laws in the receiving countries and high migration costs, the increase in international migration has involved mainly highly educated workers. During the same period, technology in developed countries has become progressively more skill-biased, increasing the productivity of highly educated workers more than less educated workers. This paper extends a model of trade in differentiated goods to analyse the joint phenomena of migration and trade in a world where countries use different skill-specific technologies and workers have different skill levels (education). We calibrate the model to match the features of the Western European countries (EU-15) and the new Eastern European members of the EU. We then simulate the effects of freer trade and higher labor mobility between the two regions. Even in a free trade regime the removal of the restrictions on labor movements would benefit Europe as a whole by increasing the GNP of Eastern and Western Europe. Interestingly, we also find that the resulting skilled migration (the so-called "brain drain") from Eastern European countries would not only benefit the migrants but, through trade, could benefit the workers remaining in Eastern Europe as well.

Understanding Global Migration offers scholars a groundbreaking account of emerging migration states around the globe, especially in the Global South. Leading scholars of migration have collaborated to provide a birds-eye view of migration interdependence. Understanding Global Migration proposes a new typology of migration states, identifying multiple ideal types beyond the classical liberal type. Much of the world's migration has been to countries in Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and South America. The authors assembled here account for diverse histories of colonialism, development, and identity in shaping migration policy. This book provides a truly global look at the dilemmas of migration governance: Will migration be destabilizing, or will it lead to greater openness and human development? The answer depends on the capacity of states to manage migration, especially their willingness to respect the rights of the ever-growing portion of the world's population that is on the move.
