Acquiring citizenship is often seen as a milestone of integration.

For once because it is assumed to lead to better job prospects. A new study on #Italy challenges this assumption.

I am soo excited to share my newest article, “Unnatural Wills.” It’s about inheritance disputes!!! Murder, gold diggers, sex work, racial passing, secret lesbian lovers…WOW this was fun to write, and I hope it’s fun to read, too.

🗳️ Why it matters

Italy just voted *NO* to a referendum that would have shortened the residence requirement for citizenship.
Our findings suggest: when access remains slow and selective, citizenship rewards those already integrated

🧪 Data & Methods

We link longitudinal survey data with administrative registers on income & naturalisations (2012–2021).

We use growth curve models + two-way fixed effects to control for observable selection bias

🚨New paper out🚨
First evidence on the returns of citizenship acquisition in Italy

🔎 Naturalized do better, but not because of naturalization
