The papers in this book provide an analysis of the economics of immigration. Junankar discusses why people migrate, the likely destinations for migrants, and their employment in the destination countries. He studies the benefits to the migrant families in terms of higher wages and living standards, and also studies how immigrants fare in the Australian labour markets in terms of finding good jobs, and whether there is discrimination against them. Economics of Immigration analyses the macroeconomic impacts of immigration on the Australian economy and discusses why some groups favour immigration while other groups are against it. Junankar argues immigration has been beneficial for employment and growth; not only adding to labour supply but also to labour demand, hence leading to favourable outcomes. This collection of essays shows how immigration has helped the economic development of Australia, while also highlighting that the historical reasons for immigration lie in the colonisation of many countries in Asia and Africa. 606 $aLabor economics 606 $aEconomic policy 606 $aMacroeconomics 606 $aInternational economic relations 606 $aLabor Economics 606 $aEconomic Policy 606 $aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics 606 $aInternational Political Economy? 615 0$aLabor economics. 615 0$aEconomic policy. 615 0$aMacroeconomics. 615 0$aInternational economic relations. 615 14$aLabor Economics. 615 24$aEconomic Policy. 615 24$aMacroeconomics and Monetary Economics. 615 24$aInternational Political Economy?. 676 $a331 700 $aJunankar$b P.
