Abstract
Migration has increased in many parts of the world for a variety of reasons. In our study, we examine bilateral migration flows between one country and the rest of the world. To this end, we develop a formal model that assumes rational individuals and which is partly based on insights from the micro-theory of migration. In doing so, we include human development and distinguish between regular and aysl-related migration. We test the model empirically on the example of Germany. It turns out that climate change and life expectancy have a significant impact on migration. Contrary to our expectations, the economic development, the extent of social assistance and the level of education do not seem to have any significant influence. With our paper, we expand previous research on migration with an empirically based model.
