The Economics of Immigration 2nd Edition by Cynthia Bansak

Exercise 11

Web exercise: Pick an OECD country that has data on inflows of foreign population available in the OECD International Migration Database (https://stats.oecd.org/viewhtml.aspx?datasetcode=MIG&lang=en). For the most recent year that data on inflows by country of birth/nationality are available, list the top 15 countries of birth/nationality of inflows into the country you chose and calculate their shares of total inflows into that country that year. (Use the customise layout option to make this easier.) Does the pattern fit with the models discussed in this chapter?
