Abstract

We investigate intergenerational income mobility across labor market regions in Norway, looking at gender differences in response to industrial diversity. Our identification strategy exploits variation in the timing of regional migration, measured over the age spans 6−19 and 13−19 years. We make extensive use of fixed effects so that each region only affects adult outcomes, measured as income rank, through differences in exposure time. Our results reveal significantly larger exposure effects among daughters than among sons. The difference is particularly large when we contrast sons to fathers and daughters to mothers, but it is also apparent when we place sons and daughters, respectively, fathers and mothers, in the same distribution. We further find that industrial diversity, and thus the range of job opportunities, matters most during the teenage years. The patterns are, to some extent, detectible on maps, for example, with better mobility opportunities for men in coastal regions based on maritime and/or marine specialization. We conclude with assessments, a recommendation for regional policy, and some international considerations.

挪威代际流动的地理分布:劳动力市场多样性、职业机会和性别
我们研究了挪威劳动力市场地区间的代际收入流动性,探讨了性别差异对产业多样性的影响。我们的识别策略利用了地区迁移时间的变化,以6-19岁和13-19岁的年龄跨度来衡量。我们广泛使用了固定效应,从而使每个地区仅通过接触时间的差异来影响成年后的结果(以收入排名衡量)。我们的结果显示,女儿的接触效应明显大于儿子。当我们将儿子与父亲、女儿与母亲进行对比时,这种差异尤为明显,但当我们将儿子和女儿、父亲和母亲分别置于相同的分布中时,这种差异也很明显。我们还发现,在青少年时期,行业多样性以及工作机会的范围最为重要。这种模式在一定程度上可以在地图上发现,例如,在沿海地区,男性在海事和/或海洋专业领域有更好的流动机会。最后,我们将进行评估,为地区政策提出建议,并考虑一些国际因素。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Regional Science (JRS) publishes original analytical research at the intersection of economics and quantitative geography. Since 1958, the JRS has published leading contributions to urban and regional thought including rigorous methodological contributions and seminal theoretical pieces. The JRS is one of the most highly cited journals in urban and regional research, planning, geography, and the environment. The JRS publishes work that advances our understanding of the geographic dimensions of urban and regional economies, human settlements, and policies related to cities and regions.
