| Abstract: | The paper uses a dynamic efficiency-wage model to analyze the consequences of immigration for a small country when there is discrimination against immigrants in a dual labour market with unemployment. Discrimination is of the type 'equal pay for equal work, but unequal work' which is characteristic of economies with 'guest-worker' systems. The model exhibits three regimes for rising immigration levels. An analysis of regime switches shows that changes attributable to 'globalization' and technical progress are consistent with growing opposition to immigration. |
