Economic Integration of Non-European Immigrants: Difficulties That Ease Over Time

MIRAGE Model Documentation Version 2.0

MIRAGE is a multi-sector, multi-region computable general equilibrium model designed by the CEPII for economic policy analysis, particularly focusing on trade and environmental policies. The model features advanced trade modeling capabilities with detailed treatment of trade costs, Armington specifications, and analysis of trade barriers through the MAcMap-HS6 database. Enhanced energy sector representation includes detailed electricity generation modeling with renewable energy integration considering base-load and peak-load, capital-energy bundles, and greenhouse gas emissions accounting with carbon market mechanisms. The sequential dynamic framework enables long-term economic projections by combining total factor productivity calibration with macroeconomic forecasts from the MaGE model for consistent policy scenario analysis.

The growing US dependence to Chinese products over the past thirty years has increased the cost of geopolitical disputes with China for the US. While decoupling from China could offer geopolitical benefits, the paper highlights a fundamental security dilemma: decoupling can paradoxically raise the risk of escalation by weakening incentives for restraint.
