摘要

我们的论文描述了1980年古巴难民危机导致的马里埃尔偷渡船事件造成的犯罪影响,该事件使迈阿密的人口增加了近10%。采用综合控制方法将迈阿密与表现出类似干预前犯罪模式的城市进行匹配,我们发现了强有力的证据,表明迈阿密的财产犯罪和谋杀率相对增加;我们还记录了与古巴人涌入有关的人均暴力犯罪的较弱但具有暗示性的相对增长。新来者的构图特征似乎推动了我们的结果;不成比例的年轻男性马里埃尔古巴人的特征与非法活动高度相关。考虑到这一群体的独特构成和缺乏严格的筛选,我们的发现可能构成了由移民引起的犯罪的“上限”。

Crime and the Mariel Boatlift
Our paper describes crime effects attributable to the Mariel Boatlift, the 1980 Cuban refugee crisis that increased Miami’s population by nearly 10%. Using synthetic control methods to match Miami with cities that exhibit similar pre-intervention crime patterns, we find strong evidence the phenomenon comparatively increased property crime and murder rates; we also document weaker but suggestive relative growth in per capita violent crime linked with the influx of Cubans. Compositional features of the newcomers seemingly drive our results; the disproportionately young, male Mariel Cubans’ characteristics highly correlate with illicit activity. Given the unique composition of the group and the absence of rigorous screening, our findings likely constitute the “upper bound” of crime caused by migration.
