Too Many Migrants, Too Few Services: A Model of Decision-Making on Immigration and Integration with Cultural Distance

Immigrants decide whether to integrate into the native culture. We show that if services are priced according to per unit costs, the market demand for immigrants will exceed the political demand. Market forces then lead to higher services prices, implying that the initially allowed number of immigrants is 'politically' too large. |
