Ah, I didn't realize Pinotti had a book!

Re. Venezuela - this paper? https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00220388.2024.2407822?src=exp-la

I'm planning to cover it in a post about refugees (along with a couple of papers on Syrian refugees in Turkey: https://eaf.ku.edu.tr/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/erf_wp_2113.pdf, https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0305750X22000481).

I think it was this IZA paper on Chile. Maybe I'm misremembering the VZ connection.

I think the World Bank might have done some research like it as well. Or IMF? They had a series on Venezuelan refugees since it was such a large number and there was some policy variation among receiving countries.

AEJ published it: https://www.aeaweb.org/articles?id=10.1257/app.20210156

Editing to add that I also liked this paper given that language barriers meant that I couldn't parse the German data myself.
