The People’s Romance: Why People Love Government (as much as they do)
Klein, Daniel - Ratioinstitutet - 2004

Partial Legalization and Parallel Markets: The Effect of Lawful Crossing on Unlawful Crossing at the US Southwest Border
Clemens, Michael A. - 2024
Legal and illegal markets often coexist. In theory, marginal legalization can either substitute for the remaining parallel market, or complement it via scale effects. I study migrants crossing without prior authorization at the US southwest border, where large-scale unlawful crossing coexists...
