📢🤩@PapadiaAndrea @AriellZimran and I have a new WP. Using novel data for all existing Brazilian municipalities in 1920, we examine the effects of immigration in a developing country. Immigration boosted agricultural development, captured by farm value. https://t.co/yWOYLoPuCK

Migration to Brazil during the Age of Mass Migration, 1855–1920, led to increases in farm values through more intensive cultivation — evidence of immigration’s impact in developing countries, from @drescamillag, @PapadiaAndrea, and @ariellzimran https://t.co/1v6I4YnRn7

1/14 A thread on our newly released NBER paper
which explains how the Italian mass migration (1876-1920) evolved in a process of spatial diffusion of migration networks

[NBER @nberpubs]

Italian migration shows that a slow spatial diffusion of migration networks delayed emigration from the European periphery during the Age of Mass Migration, from @YannayASpitzer and @AriellZimran https://t.co/mrfc6dFmxU

“There is interesting economics to learn about the past. If you don’t go back and look at how we got to this place, you have no hope of understanding the problem in its entirety," explains former #OIGI visiting scholar @AriellZimran.

[Yannay Spitzer @YannayASpitzer]

A nice summary in Der Standard of my paper with @AriellZimran. We think that the diffusion hypothesis is an important part of the explanation for the delayed migration from the European periphery, based on data from Italy 1876-1920.
