Descrição: dc.descriptionMigration has been proposed as one of the factors that shape cultural similarities across countries. However, studying the relationship between culture and migration has been chal- lenging, in part because culture is difficult to quantify. The traditionally used survey question- naires have a number of drawbacks, including that they are costly and difficult to scale to a large number of countries. To complement survey data, we propose the use of passively- collected digital traces from social media. We focus on food and drink as markers of a coun- try’s culture. We then measure similarities between countries in terms of food and drink interests using aggregated data from the Facebook Advertising Platform. Methodologically, we offer approaches to measure the similarity between countries with both symmetric and asymmetric indices. Substantively, we assess the association between migration cultural similarity between countries by comparing our measure of cultural similarity with interna- tional migration data. In most countries, larger immigrant populations are associated with more similar food and drink preferences between their country of origin and the country of destination. Our results suggest that immigrants contribute to bringing the culture of their home countries to new countries. Moreover, our study identifies considerable variability in this pattern across countries.-
