本章回顾并讨论了关于福利磁铁假说的主要理论和实证研究，即移民是否更有可能移居到福利制度慷慨的国家。虽然经济理论预测福利慷慨会影响移民的数量、组成和地点，但经验证据却相当复杂。我们提供了可能的解释，这种混合的证据的存在，并强调到目前为止，文献忽略了不同的移民制度的存在，以及福利支出和移民之间的反向因果关系的可能性。
This chapter reviews and discusses major theories and empirical studies about the welfare magnet hypothesis, i.e. whether immigrants are more likely to move to countries with generous welfare systems. Although economic theory predicts that welfare generosity affects the number, composition and location of immigrants, the empirical evidence is rather mixed. We offer possible explanations for the existence of such mixed evidence and highlight that the literature so far has overlooked the presence of different migration regimes, as well as the possibility of reverse causality between welfare spending and immigration.
