“…For more details on data used in this paper see Appendix A.6 In 2017 irregular migrants were about 490,000 according to the ISMU Foundation, while according to OECD (2018) the number of migrants living in Italy without a regular visa ranges from 279,000 to 461,000. Furthermore, dallaPellegrina et al (2018) show that the probability of regularization of migrants is higher after 2011. 7 Naturalization rate is computed over the number of non citizens.…”

Recently in Italy immigration has been at the centre of public debates. Nonetheless, the still growing literature has focused mainly on the experience of old settlement countries and has looked at single aspects of the phenomenon. In order to guide effective local policy intervention, we offer an exhaustive view of immigration in Italy. We combine the presentation of stylized facts from available data, based on descriptive analyses, with a review of existing studies. Our conclusions tell that evidence available for Italy does not match the policy relevance of the issue and also identify areas where solid evidence is needed.

About 3ieThe International Initiative for Impact Evaluation (3ie) develops evidence on how to effectively transform the lives of the poor in low-and middle-income countries. Established in 2008, we offer comprehensive support and a diversity of approaches to achieve development goals by producing, synthesizing and promoting the uptake of impact evaluation evidence. We work closely with governments, foundations, NGOs, development institutions and research organizations to address their decision-making needs. With offices in Washington DC, New Delhi and London and a global network of leading researchers, we offer deep expertise across our extensive menu of evaluation services.3ie evidence gap maps 3ie evidence gap maps are thematic collections of information about impact evaluations or systematic reviews that measure the effects of international development policies and programs. The maps provide a visual display of completed and ongoing systematic reviews and impact evaluations in a sector or subsector, structured around a framework of interventions and outcomes.The evidence gap map reports provide all the supporting documentation for the maps, including the background information for the theme of the map, the methods and results, protocols, and the analysis of results. About this evidence gap mapThis report presents the findings for a systematic search to identify and map the evidence base of impact evaluations and systematic reviews of interventions that aim to address the root causes of irregular migration in low-and middle-income countries. The EGM was developed by 3ie with funding from the International Organization for Migration (IOM) -Guatemala through the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) funded project, Addressing the Root Causes of Irregular Migration in Guatemala.

This paper proposes a new test of Tiebout sorting that relies on the exogenous time structure of recurrent local elections. The test is based on the idea that competitive elections represent periodic perturbations to the Tiebout equilibrium of local public good provision and allocation of households to communities, so that their schedule should a¤ect the timing of households'sorting decisions. On the other hand, internal migration ‡ows that have nothing to do with the demand for public goods over which localities vote recurrently ought to be orthogonal to the timing of elections in a reduced-form migration equation. I exploit the staggered schedule of mayoral elections in Italy to analyze migration, elections, and public budget data across several thousands of municipalities, and …nd evidence of a systematic in ‡uence of the electoral calendar on the timing of sorting decisions.
