Do offshoring and immigration really increase unemployment?
Not quite, according to this study by economists at the London School of Economics.

Quote:We find that offshoring has no effect on native
employment in the aggregate, while the effect of immigration on native employment is positive. This hints at the presence of a “productivity effect" whereby offshoring and immigration improve industry efficiency, thereby creating new jobs.

It's just over two years old, but I figure that they'd reach the same conclusions if they conducted their research today.
