Aging and pension reform: extending the retirement age and human capital formation* (2015, positive): “Second, we use the life expectancy forecasted by the United Nations (2007) and extrapolate it until 2100 at the same (region and gender-specific) linear rate.15 Then we assume that life expectancy in FGI stays constant.”
Individual Attitudes Towards Immigrants: Welfare-State Determinants Across Countries (2006, positive): “For a formal analysis, see Razin and Sadka (1999), while Storesletten (2000) has studied how migration policy can be used to sustain the existing welfare system in the United States.”
Immigration, Family Responsibilities and the Labor Supply of Skilled Native Women (2011, background): “As pointed out by Aydemir and Borjas (2006), the spatial correlations approach is likely to suffer, in practice, from substantial attenuation bias due to measurement error in the main explanatory variable (some measure of regional immigrant concentration).”
Aging, pension reform and capital flows: a multi-country simulation model (2004, neutral): “Furthermore, there are no skill differences between the two groups as analyzed by Razin and Sadka (1999) and Storesletten (2000), among others. specific gross wages are given by agitg iat ww ε⋅= ,,, , where εa is age-specific productivity and g itw , is the aggregate gross wage resulting from…”
Immigration and Economic Growth in the OECD Countries, 1986-2006 (2016, background): “…analyses have been ﬂourishing in recent years in two key areas that are likely to inﬂuence public opinion on migration, namely, the labour market (Borjas, 2003; Angrist and Kugler, 2003) and the ﬁscal eﬀects of immigration (Auerbach and Oreopoulos, 1999; Storesletten, 2000; Rowthorn, 2008).”
Assessing the Fiscal Costs and Benefits of A8 Migration to the UK (2009, background): “Dynamic models allow for such assessment (see e.g. Storesletten (2000)) but require strong modelling assumptions regarding immigrant fertility, propensity to return to the country of origin, labour market participation, and future government spending and tax policies.”
The Economic Effects of Immigration into the United Kingdom (2004, positive): “Using a dynamic model, Storesletten (2000) obtains an estimate of $7,400 for the net present value of the average immigrant into the United States.”
Population Changes and Capital Accumulation: The Aging of the Baby Boom (2001, background): “See Storesletten (2000) for an excellent study of the role of migrations with an extended version of the OLG model.”
Demographic Change, Human Capital and Welfare (2012, background): “Important ex- amples in closed economies with a focus on social security adjustments include Huang et al. (1997), De Nardi et al. (1999) and, with respect to migration, Storesletten (2000).”
Economic Impacts of Immigration: A Survey (2011, background): “There are a large number of studies concerning the US, of which Table 3 presents a subset for comparison.”
Do Immigrants Cause Crime (2012, background): “This lively research area has emphasized the labor market competition between immigrants and natives (surveys include Borjas, 1994; Friedberg and Hunt, 1995; Bauer and Zimmermann, 2002; Card, 2005) and the effects of immigration on fiscal balances (Storesletten, 2000; Lee and Miller, 2000; Chojnicki”
Diasporas and Technology Transfer (2001, background): “A recent paper, for instance, calculates that the net present value of a highly skilled immigrant in the 40–44 age group is $96 000 against minus $88 000 for a new born in the US (Storesletten, 2000).”
