Immigrants’ Identity, Economic Outcomes and the Transmission of Identity across Generations (2010, unknown): “In our context, not identifying 4 Edin et al. (2003) and Damm (2009) find evidence that neighbourhood-based ethnic minority networks lead to higher wages of low educated workers.”
The labour market impact of immigration (2008, background): “This is for instance the case with immigrant dispersal policies in Sweden (Edin, Fredriksson and Aslund 2003) and Denmark (Damm 2006).”
Spatial Foundations of Inequality: A Conceptual Model and Empirical Overview (2017, background): “Studies in the United States (Rosenbaum 1991, 1995; Rubinowitz and Rosenbaum 2000; DeLuca et al. 2010; Galster, Santiago, and Lucero 2015a, 2015b; Galster et al. 2015; Chyn 2016), in Sweden (Edin, Fredricksson, and Åslund 2003; Åslund and Fredricksson 2009), and in Denmark (Damm 2009, 2014) all find”
On the Economics and Politics of Refugee Migration (2017, methodology): “Denmark similarly implemented a dispersal policy between 1984 and 1994 (Damm, 2009), and in 1987 and 1994, respectively, the Netherlands and Norway introduced dispersal policies that still remain in place today.”
The Labor Market Impact of Immigration: A Quasi-Experiment Exploiting Immigrant Location Rules in Germany (2012, result): “Card (2001) estimates this selectivity bias to be of the order of 0.05. have a detrimental effect on the employment/labor force rate stands in contrast to a number of other studies for Germany, for instance Pischke and Velling (1997), Bonin (2005), and D’Amuri et al. (2010).”
Crime and Immigration: Evidence from Large Immigrant Waves (2013, unknown): “…countries has generally addressed this identification issue by either devising suitable instruments (Card, 2001) or by exploiting some natural experiment where immigrants where forcibly allocated to areas they had not chosen (Edin et al., 2003; Gould et al., 2004; Glitz, 2006; Damm, 2009).”
Immigration and Voting for the Far Right (2017, unknown): “In specific circumstances, related to policies regarding refugees, researchers can arguably get even closer to random assignment and internal validity than we can in our setting (see, e.g., Edin, Fredriksson, and Åslund 2003; Damm 2009; Glitz 2012; Dahlberg, Edmark, and Lundqvist 2012).”
Job Referral Networks and the Determination of Earnings in Local Labor Markets (2014, background): “This finding is consistent with other work finding that immigrants are more likely to use personal contacts to find work, to reside in ethnic enclaves, and to find jobs by referral than their native counterparts (Andersson et al. 2008; Damm 2009; Beaman and Magruder 2012).”
