Question

George Borjas formalized an econometric model to argue that these people are not necessarily positively self-selected. (10[1])Ottaviano and Peri argued that these people are imperfect substitutes in the labor market, (-5[1])dampening their potential competitive (-5[1])effects. In a paper partially titled for inequality, David Card found that a supply shock caused by these people had no negative impact on wages (10[1])for low-skilled (10[1])workers; (10[3])Card’s work focused on these people in Miami from the Mariel Boatlift. Geographers may divide these people’s motivations into “push” and “pull” factors. For 10 points, name these people contrasted with natives, who permanently relocate to a new country. (10[1])■END■ (10[1])

ANSWER: immigrants [accept migrants; accept emigrants; accept Cubans or Cuban immigrants; accept Marielitos before “Mariel”]
