520 $a The main focus of the dissertation is the study of immigration policy, particularly the roles of skill accumulation and the welfare state as determinants of the desired number and skills of new immigrants.
520 $a Chapter 1 presents the basic model of immigration policy. The native population, composed of skilled and unskilled workers, chooses immigration policy by majority vote in each period. Voters are aware that immigrants gain the right to vote after one period. The two types of labor are complementary in production and their size varies as a result of (endogenous) immigration and an (exogenous) increase in the fraction of skilled workers from one generation to the next (skill upgrading). The main result is the existence of a trade-off between factor complementarity and the effects of current immigration on future policies.
520 $a Chapter 2 extends the basic model. The native population now simultaneously votes over immigration policy and income redistribution. Voters anticipate the future effects of current immigration on both policies. When calibrated to the US economy, the equilibrium features an unskilled majority, a large degree of income redistribution and unskilled immigration. Intuitively, unskilled natives admit unskilled immigrants to regenerate the political support for high income redistribution, despite the resulting lower unskilled wages.
520 $a Chapter 3 contains an empirical investigation of the role of families as vehicles for skill accumulation. We carry out a cohort analysis of the effect of parental education on the educational attainment of children, allowing for different gender effects of parents and children. We find a sharp decline in the effect of maternal education on the attainment of sons for the cohorts born after 1955. In contrast, the effect of maternal education on daughters over the same time period remained fairly constant. Overall, our results suggest a trend toward increasing same-gender specialization, that is, paternal education mattering more for sons and maternal education mattering more for daughters. We provide evidence of a link between the rise in gender specialization and the expansion of employment among married women. Our results are robust to the presence of unobserved hereditary ability.
