Immigration Policy and Self-Selecting Migrants

Milo Bianchi

Working Papers from HAL

Abstract: We build a simple model of self-selection into migration and immigration policy determination. We first show that the effect of any immigration policy can be decomposed into a size and a composition effect. We then explore how the optimal policy may change once the latter effect is considered.
