A THEORETICAL EXPOSITION OF MIGRATION ENFORCEMENT ON EXISTING MIGRANT AND DOMESTIC HOUSEHOLDS*
构建了一个包含本土家庭和到达时间不同的移民家庭的模型,分析发现公众对无证工人的反感增加会降低本土和现有移民家庭对子女教育的私人投资,并导致公共教育支出下降,对所有家庭的教育成果产生负面影响。
ABSTRACT This paper presents a model with a domestic household and a heterogeneous migrant household in arrival timing. The domestic and documented migrant households divide their one unit of time between lobbying for/against immigration enforcement expenditures and employment. The analysis shows that an increase in public dislike for undocumented workers lowers domestic and existing migrant households private investment in own child education. It also causes average public expenditures on education to fall and leads to a negative impact on the educational outcomes of all households.
