Abstract

Cultural Gravity is defined as the power of the cultural milieu of a locality to attract immigrants. We test the impact of Cultural Gravity on the spatial clustering and productivity of culturally diverse migrants throughout the European Union. We add to the literature in two ways. First, we clarify...
