我们通过比较墨西哥移民及其后裔与本土白色和黑人美国人的劳动力市场表现来评估同化理论的最新修订。使用当前人口调查临时工系列，我们研究了公共和非标准就业以及除收入外的附带福利。我们发现几乎没有证据表明墨西哥裔美国人集中在非标准工作中，而是注意到福利和薪酬的代际改善。然而，所有墨西哥裔工人在福利方面都比土著白人处于不利地位。只有在公共部门，墨西哥裔工人的劳动力市场结果才与本土白人趋同。
We evaluate recent revisions of assimilation theory by comparing the labor market performance of Mexican immigrants and their descendents to those of native white and black Americans. Using the Current Population Survey Contingent Worker Series, we examine public and non-standard employment and fringe benefits in addition to earnings. We find little evidence that Mexican Americans cluster in non-standard work, noting instead intergenerational improvement in benefits and pay. However, all Mexican-origin workers are disadvantaged relative to native whites in terms of benefits. It is only within the public sector that the labor market outcomes of Mexican-origin workers converge with native whites.
