      abstract = {The economic consequences of migration are hotly debated  and a main topic of recent political movements across  Europe. We analyze Polish immigration in the context of the  2004 enlargement of the European Union and find a positive  and significant spillover effect of the immigrants on the  number of local inventors in German counties in 2001-2010.  For causal identification, we exploit a historical episode  in the Polish migration history to Germany before the fall  of the Iron Curtain and construct a shift-share instrument.  Our results differ from findings for high-skilled migration  to the United States, which is particularly interesting as  Polish immigration to Germany was not based on selection by  qualification in our period of analysis.},
