Review of literature pertinent to the economic consequences of deportation of unauthorized immigrants

Literature Review on the Economic Consequences of the Deportation of Unauthorized Immigrants

A 20 page literature review that examines a wide range of papers and analyses relevant to the economic consequences of mass deportation and the evolution of the research on the subject, by Robert Lynch and me, is now available on SSRN.

Recently cited by MSNBC.

This paper differs from the paper described in my next post in that it is a large survey on a range of literature that is pertinent to the economic impact of deportation and has a history of the evolution in that literature. The next post is focused more narrowly on the literature that has looked specifically on mass deportation.
