요약The relationship between the United States and the refugees it welcomes is full of contradictions: the U.S. has resettled more refugees than any other country, yet the refugee admissions process is byzantine and decentralized and the government has little insight into refugee outcomes. Academic understanding of the refugee experience is similarly fragmented, with scholarship consisting largely of ethnographic research into distinct communities and their practices. Furthermore, refugees are an under-theorized population as the migration processes that affect voluntary economic migrants are distinct from the processes of arrival and incorporation in the refugee community. This dissertation aims to bring refugees into the literature on immigrant incorporation, investigating the socioeconomic outcomes of refugees using contemporary assimilation theories to understand the role that race and place play in refugee integration. It contributes to the body of knowledge by using American Community Survey data on three different-race refugee groups - Bosnians, Laotians, and Somalis - and comparing differences in economic attainment to native-born Whites and same-race natives. This dissertation asks three questions: 1. How does refugee labor force participation differ from native-born Whites and same-race natives? 2. How do the wages of refugees differ from native-born Whites and same-race natives? 3. How does refugee socioeconomic differ from native-born Whites and same-race natives? By controlling for individual and state-level characteristics, this dissertation will probe the extent to which refugees differ from other immigrants and native-born Americans who share similar characteristics.
