[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”9460″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]A new research study by MPG\u2019s Head of Research, Giacomo Solano, Ben van Enk, and \u00d6zge Bilgili, explores the \u201cdiscrimination paradox\u201d across the European Union, which refers<\/span> to <\/span>the finding that higher-educated migrants perceive more discrimination compared to lower-educated migrants.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Higher-educated ethnic minority members perceive more discrimination compared to the lower-educated in countries in which education pays off less, both in terms of the financial returns of education and with respect to the levels of perceived overqualification.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The extent to which higher-educated ethnic minority members perceive more discrimination is not necessarily affected by anti-discrimination policies.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the results from the study show that the \u201cdiscrimination paradox\u201d is not omnipresent in all EU countries. In fact, it is mostly a Western European and Scandinavian phenomenon. Evidence of its presence in Central, Eastern or Southern European countries remains scarce.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
