INVITED FOR REVISIONS AT OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS
How does natural resource wealth affect immigration policies? Drawing from the resource curse literature and the Dutch Disease model, the book, based on an award-winning dissertation, unpacks how different types of natural resources alter the preferences of domestic groups and their relative power in immigration policymaking. Focusing on the oil-rich Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and Scandinavian democracies, the book manuscript shows that political institutions condition how natural resource wealth shape immigration policy outcomes. Funded by three distinct grants from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and financial support from the Netherlands Organization for Scientific Research (NWO), the book manuscript features a global analysis of immigration policy, a subnational analysis on Senate and House voting on immigration bills, and an in-depth case study of Norway and its Nordic neighbors.
