Abstract: Has the free movement of persons caused job losses or has it stimulated economic growth and the employment of the local labour force as well? Has it led to a lowering of domestic wages or have the stimuli of growth caused them to rise? Through the quantitative analysis of the abolition of a pillar of Swiss migration policy – the employment priority given to the domestic labour force until June 2004 – the study done by the Cantonal Statistis Office of Ticino provides answers to these questions.
