Diskussionspapier: Feeling Equal before the Law? The Impact of Access to Citizenship and Legal Status on Perceived Discrimination
Das neues Diskussionspapier " Feeling Equal before the Law? The Impact of Access to Citizenship and Legal Status on Perceived Discrimination " von Adriana Rocío Cardozo Silva (DIW) und Christopher Prömel ist ab sofort auf der Seite des DIW zu finden. Abstract: In this study, we contribute to the literature about the effects of improving access to citizenship on integration outcomes. Hereby, we exploit exogenous variation from two citizenship reforms in Germany to estimate the effects of residency requirements on perceived discrimination, which is strongly linked to individual well-being, sense of belonging, and migration desires and decisions. We find that reducing waiting times to become eligible for citizenship decreases perceptions of discrimination. However, heterogeneity analyses reveal that these effects appear to be mostly limited to men and immigrants from Eastern European countries. In addition to our main analysis, we exploit exogenous variation from EU enlargement to show that citizens from countries that became part of the EU report significantly less discrimination than non-EU immigrants.
