DESCRIPTION:We examine both theoretically and empirically how migration aff
 ects cultural change in home and host countries. Our theoretical model inte
 grates various compositional and cultural transmission mechanisms of migrat
 ion-based cultural change for which it delivers distinctive testable predic
 tions on the sign and direction of convergence. We then use the World Value
  Survey for the period 1981-2014 to build time-varying measures of cultural
  similarity for a large number of country pairs and exploit within country-
 pair variation over time. Our evidence is inconsistent with the view that i
 mmigrants are a threat to the host country’s culture. While migrants do a
 ct as vectors of cultural diffusion and bring about cultural convergence\, 
 this is mostly to disseminate cultural values and norms from host to home c
 ountries (i.e.\, cultural remittances).\\n\\nContact: Timothée Demont: ti
