From the article:
An economist who used real-world events to show that large waves of low-skilled immigration did not undermine wages and job prospects for local workers has been honoured with a share of this year’s economics Nobel prize.
David Card, a professor of economics at the University of California, Berkeley, won one half of the award, formally called the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, “for his empirical contributions to labour economics”.
