| dc.description.abstract | Displaced workers are followed for ten years in order to analyse the
earnings effects from internal migration. We utilise a large dataset containing all
workers in Sweden who were displaced during 1987 or 1988. Effects from migration
are investigated controlling for human capital, family, and labour market
characteristics. Internal migration has positive earnings effects for men, while the
consequences for women are in general negative or non-existent. Positive effects for
immigrant men occur several years after migration, implying that long term effects are
important to migrants and showing the importance of using a long observation period
in migration studies. | eng |
