利用丹麦行政数据,研究三代移民与本地人的收入轨迹,发现第二、三代移民逐渐同化但收入差距持续存在,族裔资本是重要解释因素。

Abstract

This paper examines income trajectories among migrants from various countries across three generations in Denmark, comparing them to native Danes. Exploiting comprehensive administrative datasets, we investigate economic mobility and evaluate whether Denmark provides economic opportunities for non-natives and their descendants. Our findings indicate that second and third generation immigrants gradually assimilate with Danes but maintain a significant and persistent income gap, contrasting with findings in the United States. We find suggestive evidence that ethnic capital plays a persistent and significant role in explaining these disparities.
