*Description:*
This past September, we had the opportunity to learn how these
recently-released data arrived to ICPSR. Now it is time for an introduction
to the data collection itself! Principal Investigator Sherrie Kossoudji
will describe these data (Immigrants Admitted to the United States, Federal
Fiscal Years 1972-2000), which include every single person admitted as an
immigrant 1972-2000, and give insights into the types of analyses that
might be undertaken. Could you be the first to publish using these data?

Dr. Sherrie A. Kossoudji is presently an associate professor in the School
of Social Work and an adjunct associate professor in the Department of
Economics. Her principal research area is immigration. She has written
numerous articles on the legal status of immigrant workers in the United
States and the incentives to cross the border illegally. Much of her work
attempts to discern the link between legal status in the United States and
economic outcomes. She has written on wealth disparities for immigrants--in
particular, on homeownership as assets for immigrants. Her latest
immigration work focuses on new immigrant children to the United States,
particularly adopted orphans from abroad, and on the economic incentives
and consequences of citizenship for immigrants to the United States.
Recently, she has examined markets for body parts around the world. In
particular, markets for sperm and ova are useful to identify social
constructions of desirability and the price associated with them. She has
also written on numerous labor and wealth issues and gendered outcomes.
Much of her work focuses on gendered differences in economic outcomes for
those at the margins of society. Dr. Kossoudji speaks publicly around the
world about immigration, citizenship, and life sciences and reproduction.

*Presenter:*
Sherrie A. Kossoudji is a retired associate professor in the School of
Social Work and an adjunct associate professor in the Department of
Economics. Her research relates to migration and immigration around the
world. Early in her career she wrote about the prospects for economic gain
for immigrants to the United States. She has written numerous articles on
the legal status of workers in the United States and the incentives to
cross the border clandestinely. Much of her work attempts to discern the
link between legal status and economic outcomes, showing that when people
gain legal status their economic lives improve. She publishes on the
impacts of legalization (regularization) policies on undocumented residents
in different countries. As a teacher, she helps students explore the impact
of immigration policies on immigrants, potential immigrants, and community
members. Contested Borders, a mini-course that examines ‘policy on the
ground’, takes place at the U.S./Mexico border and situates the conflict
between the Border Patrol and people who cross the border. She has recently
been working on refugee movements and rapidly changing asylum policies
around the world.
