Göçün emek piyasaları üzerindeki etkisi: Venezuela örneği

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of Venezuelan immigrants on the Latin American Economies, particularly on labor markets. In this context, we analyze the Latin American countries, which have the highest number of Venezuelan immigrants, namely Colombia, Peru, Argentina, Ecuador, Brazil, and Chile. The analysis chapter of the study is composed of two sections. The first section investigates the impact of Venezuelans on selected countries' economies. Since the visible movement is quite new, it is not possible to relate the economies' situation with Venezuelan immigrants. In the second part of the analysis chapter, we perform a time series analysis to see the causality relationship between Venezuelan immigrants and Colombian employment for the period between 2017M01 and 2021M07. Accordingly, a unidirectional causality is obtained from Venezuelan immigrants to Colombian employment. According to findings a unidirectional Granger causality is obtained from Venezuelan migrants to employment in Colombia.
