ABSTRACT

Over the last decade, there has been a notable surge in the movement of refugees
across international borders, posing significant challenges for the
international community. In response, various policy measures have been
implemented, including the construction of border walls, with the aim of
impeding refugee influx. However, scholars have expressed doubts regarding the
effectiveness of these fortifications, suggesting that walls merely redirect
migrants to alternative routes, discourage return migration, or alter migrants’
cost–benefit calculations. Despite these concerns, there has been a lack of
rigorous testing to support or refute these claims beyond case-specific
evidence. This article addresses this research gap by thoroughly examining the
arguments surrounding the impact of border fencing on refugee flows. We conduct
a systematic, cross-national test of these arguments with a two-way
fixed-effects estimator, an equivalence test, and a recently developed matching
estimator designed for use on time-series cross-sectional data. Our results
strongly support those who are skeptical of the impact of walls. We consistently
demonstrate either that border fencing has not had any causal impact on refugee
flows between 1970 and 2017 or that the statistical state-of-the-art is
incapable of discerning that true effect. In either scenario, the evidence
suggests that border fences fail to deliver the anticipated outcomes. These
findings hold significant implications as violence-driven refugee flows persist,
underscoring that while walls may serve as politically attractive tools for
populist leaders, their actual deterrent effects are highly questionable at
best.
