Alberto Alesina, Elie Murard and Hillel Rpoport, (2019), “Immigration and preferences for redistribution in Europe”, VoxEU, 8 Απριλίου
A large literature shows that generosity, both public and private, is more freely extended within the same group rather than across groups. This column examines how immigration affects natives’ attitudes towards redistribution and the implications for welfare states in Europe. The main finding is that in regions which have received a larger share of immigrants, natives are in general less favourable towards redistribution. Some European countries face the dilemma of natives favouring generous welfare policies for themselves but opposing them for immigrants.
