Abstract
We analyze the influence of terrorism on migration for 152 countries during 1976-2000. We find robust evidence that terrorism is among the 'push factors' of skilled migration, whereas it is not robustly associated with average migration.
⺠Terrorist attacks increase skilled (out-)migration. ⺠Terrorist attacks do not robustly affect overall migration. ⺠Panel data for 152 countries over the 1976-2000 period.
