This paper investigates the economy-wide effects of cross-border movements of Palestinian labor for employment in Israel. The integration of Palestinian and Israeli labor markets is unique, as it differs from international labor migration and associated remittances described in the literature. Especially, it departs from the cultural and social dimensions associated with international migration because there is no shift in residence. We find based on an economy-wide model calibrated to a newly developed database of the West Bank economy that increasing Palestinian labor demand in Israel negatively affects the West Bank economy by bidding up domestic wages, reallocating labor away from tradable activities and reducing competitiveness of the Palestinian export sector. However, increasing labor income from Israel has positive welfare effects for Palestinian households. Considering these results, the paper identifies policy options for the Palestinian National Authority.

本文调查了巴勒斯坦劳动力在以色列就业的跨境流动对整个经济的影响。巴勒斯坦和以色列劳动力市场的整合是独一无二的,因为它不同于文献中描述的国际劳动力迁移和相关汇款。特别是,它脱离了与国际移民相关的文化和社会层面,因为没有居住地转移。我们发现,基于一个新开发的西岸经济数据库校准的全经济模型,以色列增加的巴勒斯坦劳动力需求通过抬高国内工资、将劳动力从可贸易活动中重新分配并降低其竞争力对西岸经济产生负面影响。巴勒斯坦出口部门。然而,增加来自以色列的劳动收入对巴勒斯坦家庭具有积极的福利影响。考虑到这些结果,本文确定了巴勒斯坦民族权力机构的政策选择。
