Sammendrag
This dissertation comprises five essays on demographic consequences of international and internal migration: The essay «Why immigrant fertility in Norway has declined» shows that the fertility decline among immigrant women in Norway since 2000 mainly can be attributed to lower fertility among newly arrived immigrants. Immigration may generate more immigration. «Forecasting immigration in official population projections using an econometric model» shows how this mechanism, along with other determinants of migration, is used to project future immigration to Norway. In origin areas, emigration affects families left behind. «Fathers’ whereabouts and children’s welfare in Malawi» compares health and welfare of children whose father is a migrant with that of other children. Migrants may be affected by norms in the destination area, also regarding preferences for children’s sex. This is discussed in «Changing trend? Sex ratios of children born to Indian immigrants in Norway revisited». Finally, «Childhood residential mobility and long-term outcomes» examines the effect of childhood relocations on several outcomes, including early mortality and early parenthood.Artikkelliste
