The Effects of international migration on global income inequality
Grace Githemo
This paper explores the nuanced impact of international migration on global income inequality, a pivotal concern in the discourse on globalization and socioeconomic development. Through an extensive review of existing literature complemented by an analysis of pertinent datasets, this study aims to unravel the intricate ways through which migration influences income disparities within and between nations. Focusing on various channels such as remittances, labor market adjustments, and the flow of human capital, the paper delves into the dualistic nature of migration's impact on income inequality. By employing a comprehensive analytical approach that integrates statistical data analysis with theoretical insights, the findings offer a multidimensional perspective on migration's role in shaping economic landscapes across the globe. The objective is not only to contribute to the scholarly understanding of migration's socioeconomic effects but also to inform policy discourse aimed at leveraging migration for equitable growth and development.
