Abstract: Abstract In this chapter, we conduct our quantitative analysis on labor mobility. Given data limitation, some of our research questions are analyzed using descriptive statistics and graphical analysis, while others make use of panel regression models. The chapter points to an increase of intra-EU migration over the sample period, suggesting an endogenous development of the region toward an OCA over time. Migration flows react to unemployment in the EA as well as work as an indirect redistribution tool from richer to poorer countries. EA membership even intensifies EU intra-migration.
