“…The study explicitly provides extant research themes that can be directly reflected in immigrant administration policies. These policies include, but are not limited to, housing, poverty, politics, economy, regional development, consumption (e.g., energy, household consumption goods), services (health, food supply), and culture [16,49,53,63,71,83]. The results imply that ICBs should be integrated into immigration policies (current and future), which should consider characteristics of the host country, home country, religion, culture, etc.…”

“…A large portion of researchers from the dataset contributed to the theme, focusing on the different constituents of the ICB research domain. Among them, Fukumura et al (2020), Hewings and Kim (2015), Sidaway (2007), and Ventura and Ventura (2021) [48][49][50][51] are the authors who created knowledge concentrated on building the domain. This theme emphasizes the role that various factors or constituents play in the ICB phenomenon and its related theories.…”

“…These policymaking perceptions are also related to industry development and business management in specific immigrant-receiving countries. This research sheds light on the implications of immigrants' preparation of consuming products and their conservation practices, as well as the consuming style [17,25,49], which potentially contributes to business administration, marketing, housing and health management in regards to ethnic groups.…”

This article explores the concept of “immigrant consumption behavior (ICB)” in the context of its holistic surroundings. The study investigated the current dynamics and scientometrics of the research field regarding immigrant consumption behaviors. Using an integrative approach employing bibliometric and content analysis, it scrutinized a collection of 224 studies from the Web of Science and Scopus databases to detect the field evolution, disciplinary distribution thematic map, and emerging trends in the ICB literature, as well as to forecast research directions. The results showed that ICB is a multi- and inter-disciplinary research area that experienced three phases of growth between 1989 and 2023: initiation (1989–2006), development (2007–2012), and consolidation (2013–now). The thematic analysis revealed five current trends, i.e., (1) the immigrant consumption behavior domain, (2) the demographic sub-groups of immigrants and related consuming products, (3) country-, region-, and cultural-focused studies, (4) the effects of culture and the acculturation process, and (5) the impact of urbanization. Each theme contains a number of sub-themes. Based on the current thematic evolution and keyword burst analysis, this paper suggests a number of critical research directions, comprising (1) observatory studies including remittances, China, ethnic minorities, lifestyle, inequality, urbanization, and food consumption; (2) context-based studies focused on socioeconomic, cultural, legal, and environmental factors; (3) studies based on compensatory and compromissory consumption behavior; (4) studies focused on sustainable and green consumption behaviors; and (5) studies regarding the behavior of specific demographic co-ethnic communities. The results have great implications for developing interventions and programs that can support immigrant populations in making appropriate consumption patterns and adapting to new cultural environments. The paper pushes forward the ICB investigation from individual empirical studies to synthesis-based research, which (1) provides an ample overview of the ICB literature, (2) identifies research priorities, emerging trends, and gaps, (3) proposes new research avenues for investigation, and (4) outlines expected contributions. The research contributes to a variety of disciplines through the provision of new knowledge, since ICB studies are multidisciplinary in nature. It also has numerous implications for policymakers and practitioners.

“…For instance, Plane and Jurjevich (2009) described age-specific county-to-county migration pattern along urban hierarchy in the USA with special attention to baby boomer retirees and their echo cohorts. In the context of regional economic growth model, Hewings and Kim (2015) applied a population shock, measured by shifting trend of age composition structures, to measure the effect on Korean economy using ICGE model. Lee and Kim (2014) analyzed production cost change of manufacturing sector among Korean cities with highway investment.…”

The purpose of this paper is to examine the regional impact of educational investment policies on migration and economic growth utilizing an interregional computable general equilibrium (ICGE) model with a human capital module. The CGE model is developed for three industrial sectors of two regions in South Korea, specifying the behaviors of the following economic agents: six producers, two regional households, two regional governments, a national (central) government, and the rest of the world. The model primarily focuses on structural linkages among migration, university education, labor productivity, and human capital formation in the short run and long run. Our paper demonstrates that the impact of the human capital investment on GRP growth was higher for the 30s age cohort than for any other age cohort, and this holds for both the Seoul Metropolitan Area (SMA) and the rest of Korea (ROK). With the aim of reducing regional disparity and of redistributing concentrated populations, the national government's human capital investment policy should focus on local job training programs with the target population of the 30s age cohort in the ROK.
