dc.description.abstract | This paper considers the relation between immigration and prices for a large number of cities
across the world over the period from 1990 to 2006. Aggregate immigration ratios are shown
to have a negative impact on international relative prices. The evidence is consistent with
demand-side and supply-side considerations both being relevant for the price-reducing effect of
immigration, with the latter offering a more likely explanation at annual frequencies during this
period. Our findings regarding the inverse relation of immigration and prices and the channels
via which this operates across international cities, are broadly consistent wih Lach (2007) and
Cortes (2008) who investigate the same relation within Israel and for the US respectively. | en |
