I’m curious if anyone has seen research or thought about the inverse, Poor to Rich country spillover effects. While the findings in this post are promising, I worry that they may further incentivize under-investment in international development, as I am similarly worried about efforts to increase high-skill immigration to developed countries, which I fear benefits rich countries at the expense of poorer ones. These are just intuitions though, so I’m not sure if these concerns are unfounded.
