    Diverging economic conditions significantly impact labor migration within reunified Germany. This study uses a life-cycle model to estimate future migration patterns, offering insights into East-West European mobility.

    Area of Science:

    • Economics
    • Sociology
    • Demographics

    Background:

    • Post-reunification Germany experienced diverging economic conditions between East and West.
    • Labor migration is a key indicator of economic integration and disparity.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the impact of economic divergence on internal labor migration in Germany.
    • To forecast future labor migration trends using a life-cycle model.
    • To provide indicators for potential migration between Eastern and Western Europe.

    Main Methods:

    • Life-cycle model incorporating consumer sovereignty in location choice.
    • Random utility approach to account for individual heterogeneity.
    • Estimation of labor migration for future periods.
