We analyse a model in which families may either be ‘traditional’ single-earner that care for the child at home or be ‘ modern’ double-earner households that use market child care. Family policies may favour one or the other group, like market care subsidies vs. cash-for-care. Policies are determined by probabilistic voting, where distributional impacts matter, both within and across groups. A higher share of modern households—which can be induced by changes in social norms or by changes in gender wage inequality—may have non-monotone effects, with lower net subsidies to traditional households when their share is very low or very high, and higher subsidies in some intermediate stage. This may explain the implementation of cash-for-care policies and their subsequent tightening in late stages of development, when most voters come from modern households, observed in Norway and Sweden.
我们分析了一个模型,在这个模型中,家庭可能是在家里照顾孩子的“传统”单收入家庭,也可能是使用市场托儿服务的“现代”双收入家庭。家庭政策可能偏向于其中一个群体,比如市场医疗补贴vs现金医疗。政策是由概率投票决定的,其中分配影响很重要,无论是在群体内部还是在群体之间。更高的现代家庭比例——这可能是由社会规范的变化或性别工资不平等的变化引起的——可能具有非单调效应,当传统家庭比例非常低或非常高时,其净补贴较低,而在某个中间阶段,补贴较高。这也许可以解释在发展的后期,当大多数选民来自现代家庭时,现金换医疗政策的实施和随后的紧缩,在挪威和瑞典可以观察到。

Career Consequences of Firm Heterogeneity for Young Workers: First Job and Firm Size 企业异质性对青年员工的职业影响:第一份工作与企业规模
Pub Date : 2022-11-17 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3542638

I study the long-term effects of landing a first job at a large firm versus a small one using Spanish social security data. Size could be a relevant employer attribute for inexperienced workers since large firms are associated with greater training, higher wages, and enhanced productivity. The key empirical challenge is selection into first jobs – for instance, more able people may land jobs at large firms. I address this challenge developing an instrumental-variables approach that, while keeping business-cycle conditions fixed, leverages variation in the composition of labor demand that labor-market entrants face. I find that initially matching with a larger firm substantially improves long-term outcomes such as lifetime income, and that these benefits persist through subsequent jobs. Additional results point to mechanisms related to search frictions and better skill-development at large firms. Together, these findings shed light on how heterogeneous firms persistently impact young workers' trajectories.
我利用西班牙社会保障数据研究了在大公司和小公司找到第一份工作的长期影响。对于没有经验的员工来说,规模可能是一个相关的雇主属性,因为大公司与更好的培训、更高的工资和更高的生产率有关。关键的经验挑战是第一份工作的选择——例如,更有能力的人可能会在大公司找到工作。为了应对这一挑战,我开发了一种工具变量方法,在保持商业周期条件固定的同时,利用劳动力市场进入者面临的劳动力需求构成的变化。我发现,最初与大公司匹配会大大改善长期结果,比如终身收入,而且这些好处会持续到后来的工作。其他的研究结果指出了与大公司的搜索摩擦和更好的技能发展相关的机制。总之,这些发现揭示了异质公司如何持续影响年轻员工的发展轨迹。

Male Gatekeepers Gender Bias in the Publishing Process? 出版过程中的性别偏见?
Pub Date : 2022-10-01 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3056627
Felix Bransch, M. Kvasnička
Using data on articles published in the top-five economic journals in the period 1991 to 2010, we explore whether the gender composition of editorial boards is related to the publishing success of female authors and to the quality of articles that get published. Our results show that female editors reduce, rather than increase, the share of articles that are (co-)authored by females. We also find evidence that female editors benefit article quality at low levels of representation on editorial boards, but harm article quality at higher levels. Several robustness checks corroborate these findings. Our results are broadly consistent with existing evidence on the behavior of gender-mixed hiring committees and of relevance for gender equality policy.
利用1991年至2010年前五大经济期刊发表的文章数据,我们探讨了编委会的性别构成是否与女性作者的出版成功和发表的文章质量有关。我们的研究结果表明,女性编辑减少而不是增加了由女性共同撰写的文章的份额。我们还发现,有证据表明,女性编辑在编辑委员会的代表性较低时有利于文章质量,但在较高水平时则不利于文章质量。几个稳健性检查证实了这些发现。我们的研究结果与性别混合招聘委员会的行为以及与性别平等政策相关的现有证据大致一致。

Welfare Costs of Shopping Trips 购物之旅的福利成本
Pub Date : 2021-10-21 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3801142
H. Yilmazkuday
Using data on the number of visitors at the store level, this paper investigates the welfare costs of traditional shopping-trips for the U.S. census blocks. The investigation is based on an economic model, where individuals living in census blocks decide on which store to shop from based on the corresponding shopping-trip costs and idiosyncratic benefits. The implications of the model suggest that the welfare gains from removing shopping-trip costs in percentage terms can be measured for each census block as the weighted average of log distance measures between shopping stores and census blocks. The corresponding results show that the welfare gains from removing shopping-trip costs is about 4% for the average census block, with a range between 0.021% and 18% across census blocks that is further connected to their demographic or socioeconomic characteristics. Certain practical policy implications follow regarding how shopping-trip costs can be reduced to achieve higher welfare gains.
本文利用商店层面的游客数量数据,研究了美国人口普查区传统购物之旅的福利成本。这项调查基于一个经济模型,即居住在人口普查区的个人根据相应的购物成本和特殊利益来决定从哪家商店购物。该模型的含义表明,以百分比计算,消除购物旅行成本所带来的福利收益可以用购物商店与普查街区之间对数距离的加权平均值来衡量。相应的结果表明,消除购物旅行成本的福利收益在平均人口普查街区约为4%,在人口普查街区之间的范围在0.021%到18%之间,这与他们的人口或社会经济特征进一步相关。在如何减少购物费用以实现更高的福利收益方面,有一些实际的政策含义。

Does Inequality Affect the Perception of Needs? 不平等会影响需求感知吗?
Pub Date : 2021-10-14 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3270814

This paper investigates how inequality affects what the poor consider necessary to purchase. Using detailed information on the consumption choices of a large sample of poor households in India, we first provide evidence that inequality exposure tends to make luxuries more necessary (their income elasticity decreases). We rely on national inequality shocks that followed the 1991 economic liberalization reforms, and instrument local inequality using a shift-share strategy. We then estimate a structural model of demand where inequality exposure affects perceived needs, taking into account the supply environment. We find that (1) inequality increases the perceived need of the poor for luxuries and (2) this preference shift generates significant expenditure reallocation at the expense of calorie intakes. Counterfactual simulations show that this preference channel accounts for three fourth of the decline in calorie consumption of the poor over the period.
本文研究了不平等如何影响穷人认为必需购买的东西。利用印度大量贫困家庭样本的消费选择的详细信息,我们首先提供了证据,证明不平等暴露往往使奢侈品变得更必要(他们的收入弹性下降)。我们依靠1991年经济自由化改革之后的国家不平等冲击,并使用转移-份额策略来衡量地方不平等。然后,考虑到供给环境,我们估计了一个不平等暴露影响感知需求的需求结构模型。我们发现:(1)不平等增加了穷人对奢侈品的感知需求;(2)这种偏好的转变以牺牲卡路里摄入量为代价,产生了显著的支出再分配。反事实的模拟表明,这一偏好渠道在此期间造成了穷人卡路里消耗下降的四分之三。

The Need for a Human Capital (Education-Labor) Sector 对人力资本(教育-劳动)部门的需求
Pub Date : 2021-09-21 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3927722
Toinu Reeves
After accumulating USD 1.5 trillion, the US education sector educated 25 million Americans, or just over 15% of the workforce, that were ineligible for 1 million jobs for which it had to import labor. The Indian education sector spending 4-8 cents for every dollar the US sector spends per pupil, supplied 71% of the shortage, just over 66% of which were in computer related jobs alone, with double the median income and projected to grow 11% from 2019 to 2029, much faster than the 3-5% average for all occupations. Although the US education system is developing an overall better product, given the requirements of the US labor market, Indian workers are meeting that requirement at a lower cost. This demonstrates the lack of coordination between the education and labor sectors and the need for vertical integration between the two sectors to explore and expand horizons creating a highly skilled, agile labor pool. We explore the causes of the education-labor disconnect and open the discussion for policy recommendations.
在积累了1.5万亿美元之后,美国教育部门教育了2500万美国人,即刚刚超过劳动力的15%,这些人没有资格获得100万个工作岗位,因此必须进口劳动力。印度教育部门在每个学生上的支出是美国的4-8美分,填补了71%的缺口,其中仅计算机相关工作就占66%以上,收入中位数是美国的两倍,预计从2019年到2029年将增长11%,远快于所有职业3-5%的平均水平。尽管美国的教育体系正在开发一种总体上更好的产品,但考虑到美国劳动力市场的要求,印度工人正在以更低的成本满足这一要求。这表明教育和劳动部门之间缺乏协调,需要两个部门之间的垂直整合,以探索和扩大视野,创造一个高技能,灵活的劳动力资源。我们探讨了教育与劳动脱节的原因,并就政策建议展开讨论。

Moral Barriers to Birth Control Access: How the Pill Changed Dutch Women’s Lives – When Religion Did Not Get in the Way 避孕途径的道德障碍:避孕药如何改变荷兰妇女的生活——当宗教没有妨碍的时候
Pub Date : 2021-09-16 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3924928
O. Marie, E. Zwiers
We investigate how religious beliefs affected the take up of the birth control pill and impacted women’s outcomes using the 1970 liberalization of oral contraceptives in the Netherlands. We first document a massive and immediate drop in fertility among minor women, aged 21 or younger, for whom access restrictions were most drastically lifted. We then evaluate how area level social norms – as proxied by votes for religiously opposed political parties –influenced pill adoption by examining its impact on female fertility control and human capital formation. We find that younger women who grew up in more liberal areas were much less likely to experience a birth or marriage as a minor, invested more in education, and ended up in wealthier households. Finally, we study the potential additional impact of supply side frictions stemming from the moral views of the gatekeepers to the new birth control technology. We show that a larger proportion of religiously opposed health professionals – GPs and pharmacists – around a woman at the time of liberalization cancels out the short- and long-run benefits from pill access.
我们调查宗教信仰如何影响避孕药的使用,并使用1970年荷兰口服避孕药的自由化影响妇女的结果。我们首先记录了21岁或21岁以下的未成年妇女的生育率迅速大幅下降,对她们的准入限制被彻底取消。然后,我们通过检查其对女性生育控制和人力资本形成的影响,评估地区层面的社会规范(以宗教上反对的政党的选票为代表)如何影响避孕药的采用。我们发现,在更自由的地区长大的年轻女性在未成年时生育或结婚的可能性要小得多,她们在教育上的投资更多,最终进入了更富裕的家庭。最后,我们研究了供应方摩擦的潜在额外影响,这些摩擦源于守门人对新生育控制技术的道德观。我们的研究表明,在自由化时期,女性周围更大比例的宗教反对卫生专业人员——全科医生和药剂师——抵消了获得避孕药的短期和长期好处。

Growth of Female Labour Force Participation by Occupation in the Economy of Himachal Pradesh 喜马偕尔邦经济中职业女性劳动力参与率的增长
Pub Date : 2021-09-06 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3920219

The occupational structure is defined as the percentage of its workforce employed in various economic ventures. To put it in other words, articulating the number of the total working population employed in agriculture and associated activities and the number of them involved in the manufacturing and service sectors can be identified from the occupational structure of the nation. The present research paper proceeds with the objective of analyzing the growth of female labour force participation in Himachal Pradesh during 1991, 2001 and 2011. The maximum growth has been witnessed by other workers followed by female main workers, female household industry workers and female agricultural labourers. There was no noticeable growth in female cultivators and it is negative. The growth rate of female other workers is more than 50 per cent, and in comparison to female other workers the growth rate of female agricultural labourers, female household industry and female cultivators is very low. The present research also reviews the female labour force participation rate performance across rural-urban areas. The share of female labour force participation in rural areas is much higher than those in urban areas. But the relieving point is that there is a significant increase in women work participation rate over a period of time in rural and urban segments of Himachal Pradesh
职业结构定义为在各种经济企业中就业的劳动力的百分比。换句话说,在农业和相关活动中就业的总劳动人口的数量,以及参与制造业和服务业的人数,可以从国家的职业结构中确定。本研究论文的目的是分析1991年、2001年和2011年喜马偕尔邦女性劳动力参与率的增长。其他工人的增长最大,其次是女性主要工人、女性家庭工业工人和女性农业工人。雌性耕耘者生长不显著,呈负增长。女性其他工人的增长率超过50%,与女性其他工人相比,女性农业劳动者、女性家庭工业和女性耕种者的增长率非常低。本研究还回顾了农村和城市地区女性劳动力参与率的表现。农村地区的女性劳动力参与率远高于城市地区。但令人欣慰的是,在一段时间内,喜马偕尔邦农村和城市地区的女性工作参与率显著提高

Demographic Change and Economic Growth in India 印度的人口变化和经济增长
Pub Date : 2021-09-02 DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.3916157
N. Jain, Srinivas Goli
In this paper, we assess the economic benefits of demographic changes in India by employing econometric models and robustness checks based on panel data gathered over a period of more than three decades. Our analysis highlights four key points. First, the contribution of India’s demographic dividend is estimated to be around 1.9 percentage points out of 12% average annual growth rate in per capita income during 1981–2015. Second, India’s demographic window of opportunity began in 2005, significantly improved after 2011, and will continue till 2061. Third, our empirical analysis supports the argument that the realisation of the demographic dividend is conditional on a conducive policy environment with enabling aspects such as quality education, good healthcare, decent employment opportunities, good infrastructure, and gender empowerment. Fourth, the working-age population in India contributes around one-fourth of the inequality in per capita income across states. Thus, to reap the maximum dividends from the available demographic window of opportunity, India needs to work towards enhancing the quality of education and healthcare in addition to providing good infrastructure, gender empowerment, and decent employment opportunities for the growing working-age population.
在本文中,我们通过采用计量经济模型和基于三十多年来收集的面板数据的稳健性检查来评估印度人口变化的经济效益。我们的分析强调了四个关键点。首先,1981年至2015年期间,印度人均收入年均增长率为12%,人口红利的贡献估计约为1.9个百分点。其次,印度的人口机会之窗始于2005年,在2011年之后显著改善,并将持续到2061年。第三,我们的实证分析支持这样一种观点,即人口红利的实现取决于有利的政策环境,包括优质教育、良好的医疗保健、体面的就业机会、良好的基础设施和性别赋权等方面。第四,印度各邦人均收入差距的四分之一左右是由劳动年龄人口造成的。因此,为了从现有的人口机会之窗中获得最大红利,印度需要努力提高教育和医疗保健的质量,此外还需要为不断增长的工作年龄人口提供良好的基础设施、性别赋权和体面的就业机会。

First, the contribution of India’s demographic dividend is estimated to be around 1.9 percentage points out of 12% average annual growth rate in per capita income during 1981–2015. Second, India’s demographic window of opportunity began in 2005, significantly improved after 2011, and will continue till 2061. Third, our empirical analysis supports the argument that the realisation of the demographic dividend is conditional on a conducive policy environment with enabling aspects such as quality education, good healthcare, decent employment opportunities, good infrastructure, and gender empowerment. Fourth, the working-age population in India contributes around one-fourth of the inequality in per capita income across states. Thus, to reap the maximum dividends from the available demographic window of opportunity, India needs to work towards enhancing the quality of education and healthcare in addition to providing good infrastructure, gender empowerment, and decent employment opportunities for the growing working-age population.","PeriodicalId":149805,"journal":{"name":"Labor: Demographics & Economics of the Family eJournal","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122101665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An empirical analysis of labor market transitions for spouses in couples is implemented. Object of study are transitions between the states of nonparticipation, unemployed search, and employment. Motivated by a model of household search, the emphasis is on spousal variables and interactions. Additionally, a proxy for the business cycle is included in the analysis, and household specific unobserved heterogeneity is accounted for. Results show that female transitions into nonparticipation (both out of unemployed search and employment) are positively affected by the husband's income (while no effect is found for transitions out of nonparticipation). Men seem to move from employment into unemployed search easier the higher is the wife's income. Since the wife having an income is in turn strongly accociated with female participation, this suggests that households with a participating wife are better able to deal with unemployment of the husband. A supplementary analysis with reservation wages and numbers of applications points in the same direction. Husbands' reservation wages are only sensitive to his own unemployment income if the wife is nonparticipating. This implies that unemployment benefits have a different role in households with the husband as a sole earner compared to dual earner households.
对夫妻双方的劳动力市场转变进行了实证分析。研究对象是不参与状态、寻找失业状态和就业状态之间的过渡。在家庭搜索模型的激励下,重点放在配偶变量和相互作用上。此外,商业周期的代理也包含在分析中,并且考虑了家庭特定的未观察到的异质性。结果表明,女性过渡到不参与(包括失业搜索和就业)受到丈夫收入的积极影响(而没有发现影响过渡到不参与)。妻子的收入越高,男人似乎越容易从有工作转到找工作。由于妻子有收入反过来又与女性参与密切相关,这表明有妻子参与的家庭能够更好地处理丈夫的失业问题。对保留工资和申请数量的补充分析也指向了同样的方向。如果妻子不参与,丈夫的保留工资只对他自己的失业收入敏感。这意味着,与双职工家庭相比,失业救济金在丈夫是唯一收入来源的家庭中扮演着不同的角色。
