Cultural Wage Differentials Among United States Immigrants, Bill Takahashi

University Avenue Undergraduate Journal of Economics

This project will attempt to take a modern snapshot of the ongoing process of immigration and cultural diversification, examine the problem of immigrant adaptation into the American way of life and explore which groups, if any, have an advantage when it comes to integrating into American society. More specifically this paper will address the question: What is the role of cultural factors in determining the standard of living of immigrants.
