Abstract

The aim of this paper is to analyse the relationship between North-South migration and trade. The evidence on the topic is mainly based on country case studies and is mixed. Trade data disaggregated by good typologies, together with a recent dataset on migrants in OECD countries from developing and transition economies, are used in a gravity model. The availability of migration data for three different years allows for panel data techniques. Moreover the estimation of the empirical model for each trade sector separately - besides overall imports and exports - highlights heterogeneous responses of trade to migration according to dikerent good typologies.
