Abstract:
Does regulation of product and labor markets alter the impact of immigration on wages of competing native workers? We take German reunification as a natural experiment and compare the wage consequences of East Germans migrating into different segments of the West German labor market: one segment without product and labor market regulation, to which standard immigration models best apply, one segment in which product and labor market regulation interact, and one segment covering intermediate groups of workers.
