概要 This paper develops a macroeconomic model with skilled and unskilled labor to analyze the impacts of immigration on aggregate income and individual wage, labor employment and consumption in the host country. It is shown that immigrant inflows expand aggregate income but make some domestic workers worse off regardless of whether they are skilled or not, and independently of employment situations. However, the effect of labor productivity improvement, which is intended to offset such welfare losses, depends on the presence or absence of unemployment. For example, under full employment the productivity improvement of skilled labor enriches all people. In the presence of unemployment, it depresses aggregate demand and hurts the unskilled.
