Prof. Brücker erforscht die Arbeitsmarktintegration von Migranten und Geflüchteten in Deutschland und Europa, mit aktuellem Fokus auf transnationale Migrationsperspektiven. Seine Arbeiten untersuchen, wie Migrationspolitiken, Arbeitsmarktregulierungen und institutionelle Maßnahmen die Chancen von Zugewanderten auf dem Arbeitsmarkt beeinflussen – etwa die Anerkennung ausländischer Berufsabschlüsse, Freizügigkeitsregelungen oder Steuervergünstigungen für Fachkräfte. Für Unternehmen und die öffentliche Hand liefert er evidenzbasierte Analysen zur Wirksamkeit von Integrationspolitiken und zur Fachkräftegewinnung. Seine Forschung ist relevant für Arbeitsmarktpolitik, Fachkräfterekrutierung und die Gestaltung von Migrationspolitik in Deutschland und der EU.

Abstract In this paper we employ a wage‐setting approach to analyze the labor market effects of immigration into Germany from 1980 to 2004. This enables us to consider labor market rigidities, which are prevalent in Europe. We find that the elasticity of the wage‐setting curve is particularly high for young workers. Moreover, natives and foreigners are imperfect substitutes. The wage and employment effects of immigration depend on the skill structure of the immigrant workforce. Because the foreign labor supply shift has mainly affected the high‐skilled labor market segment, the 4 percent increase of the workforce through immigration has not increased either aggregate or foreign unemployment.
Net migration into the EU has been substantial over the past decade: After peaking at over 1 million per year in the early 1990’s, net migration to the EU declined over the past decade but is now rising again, and was over 700,000 in 1999. The net legal immigration rate for the EU, 1990-98, was 2.2 per 1000 inhabitants, compared with 3 for the US and almost 0 for Japan. Illegal immigration is estimated to be 60 % higher in Europe, at about 500,000 per annum, than in the US. The population of the EU is 34% larger than that of the US. Refugees seeking asylum in the EU between 1989 and 1998 have also exceeded an average of 350,000 per annum, with over 20 % being granted entry. As a result of substantial net migration flows, the stock of foreign born in the population of a typical EU country has steadily increased – particularly in Germany – where the stock of foreign population grew by about 3 million to 7.3 million between 1985 and 1999. The percentage of the population with foreign nationality in EU

The worldwide race to attract talents is getting tougher. The US has been leading the race, with its ability to attract PhD candidates and graduates not only from emerging countries, but also from the European Union. However, a growing number of countries have adopted immigration policies specifically aimed at selecting and attracting skilled workers. This book describes the global competition to attract talents. It focuses in particular on two phenomena: the brain gain and brain drain associated with high-skilled migration. Part I provides an overview of immigration policies designed to draw in skilled workers. It describes the economic gains associated with skilled immigration in the destination countries and the main determinants of the inflows of skilled immigrants (such as wage premia on education and R&D spending). It also discusses why skill-selective immigration policies do not find more support in receiving countries and shows that interest groups are actively engaged in affecting policies towards skilled migrants. Part II examines the consequences of brain drain for the sending countries. It reviews the channels through which skilled emigration can affect the source countries and looks at remittances, return migration, diaspora externalities, and network effects that may compensate the sending countries for their loss of human capital. Contrary to traditional wisdom, the results indicate that most developing countries experience a net gain from skilled emigration.
