Abstract:This article examines the reasons for gender-based income inequalities of tertiary-educated people in European labour markets. In the 50 years since the adoption of the anti-discrimination law in many countries, several explanations for gender-based income inequalities have been proposed. Following a literature review, the author presents two hypotheses concerning the lower female income. Even after two massive expansions of the tertiary level of education, there are still male- and female-dominated fields of study. Hence, the first hypothesis suggests that women tend to enrol in less lucrative study fields. The second hypothesis proposes that women – regardless of their university study field – tend to work in less lucrative occupations. Using data from the European Union Labour Force Survey 2016 for 28 member countries, the author first confirms that women are structurally selected to different parts of the education system (i.e., different fields of study), and to different occupations. In the second part of the analysis, the author tests both hypotheses: gender segregation in the field of study has no negative impact on income, but the gender segregation of the occupation strongly impacts income. Therefore, the author rejects the first hypothesis, supports the second hypothesis, and concludes that – in contemporary European societies – income differences arise not in the education system but in the labour market.
摘要:本文探讨了欧洲劳动力市场中高等教育人群性别收入不平等的原因。在许多国家通过反歧视法以来的50年里,对基于性别的收入不平等提出了几种解释。在文献回顾之后,作者提出了两个关于女性收入较低的假设。即使在两次大规模的高等教育扩张之后,仍然有男性和女性主导的研究领域。因此,第一个假设表明,女性倾向于选择利润较低的研究领域。第二种假设认为,女性——不管她们的大学专业是什么——倾向于从事收入较低的职业。作者利用2016年欧盟28个成员国劳动力调查的数据,首先证实了女性在结构上被选择到教育系统的不同部分(即不同的学习领域)和不同的职业。在第二部分的分析中,作者检验了两个假设:研究领域的性别隔离对收入没有负面影响,但职业的性别隔离对收入的影响很大。因此,作者拒绝第一种假设,支持第二种假设,并得出结论:在当代欧洲社会,收入差异不是来自教育系统,而是来自劳动力市场。

Abstract:The objective of this work is to analyze the types of journeys undertaken by Honduran migrant men in irregular transit through Mexican territory to the United States, by focusing on a set of characteristics of the journeys that are directly shaped by the agency of migrants: the use of coyotes (smugglers), the selection of routes, modes of transport, the support of assistance networks, and being employed en route. Based on data from the Survey on Migration on the Southern Border, a latent class analysis is used to identify groups (classes) of migrants who made the same types of journeys, that is, they had similar response patterns with respect to the selected indicators. Additionally, the article analyzes how the types of journeys are stratified according to migrants' socioeconomic status. As a result of the analysis, three types of migrations in transit are identified: migrants who travel "supported by coyotes"; those "supported by assistance networks" and those who migrate "autonomously".
摘要:本研究的目的是分析洪都拉斯移民男性通过墨西哥领土非正规过境到美国的旅程类型,重点关注由移民机构直接塑造的旅程的一系列特征:使用郊狼(走私者),路线选择,运输方式,援助网络的支持,以及在途中被雇用。根据南部边境移民调查的数据,使用潜在类别分析来确定进行相同类型旅行的移民群体(类别),也就是说,他们对所选指标具有相似的响应模式。此外,文章还分析了如何根据移民的社会经济地位对旅行类型进行分层。根据分析结果,确定了三种过境移徙类型:“由土狼支持”的移徙者;那些“得到援助网络支持的人”和那些“自主”移民的人。

Moroccan Middle Classes between Reality and Perception: A Comparative Analysis of Monetary and Subjective Approaches 现实与感知之间的摩洛哥中产阶级:货币与主观方法的比较分析

Abstract:This article has a twofold purpose: the first is to compare the lifestyle, the socio-demographic profile and perceptions of the middle classes measured according to several monetary approaches. This comparison makes it possible to determine which approaches lead to a middle class that represents the typical characteristics of this group as described in the literature and that is most consistent with the self-identified social status. The second is to analyze the determinants of the self-perceived social status and to explore to what extent it is in line with the objective reality. Thus, four objective definitions of the middle class based on living standards were compared according to several objective and subjective characteristics. Using data from the 2014 National Household Consumption and Expenditure Survey, our results show that, regardless of the approach, the Moroccan middle class is characterized by great diversity in terms of socio-demographic and subjective characteristics. However, these characteristics, as well as the magnitude of the differences between the objective stratification and the subjective one, depend largely on the approach used to delimit this group, suggesting a positive correlation between living standards and self-identified social status. The study of the latter's determinants confirms this positive correlation, although it is far from perfect. Indeed, other factors influence this self-assessment, such as education, occupation and status on the labor market, housing comfort, upward or downward trajectories of the household's standard of living, etc.
摘要:本文有双重目的:第一,比较几种货币方法衡量的中产阶级的生活方式、社会人口特征和观念。这种比较使我们有可能确定哪一种方法导致中产阶级代表了文献中所描述的这一群体的典型特征,并且与自我认同的社会地位最一致。二是分析自我感知社会地位的决定因素,探讨其在多大程度上符合客观现实。因此,根据几个客观和主观特征,比较了基于生活水平的四种中产阶级的客观定义。使用2014年全国家庭消费和支出调查的数据,我们的结果表明,无论采用何种方法,摩洛哥中产阶级在社会人口统计学和主观特征方面都具有很大的多样性。然而,这些特征,以及客观分层和主观分层之间差异的大小,在很大程度上取决于用来划分这一群体的方法,这表明生活水平和自我认定的社会地位之间存在正相关关系。对后者的决定因素的研究证实了这种正相关,尽管它远非完美。事实上,其他因素也会影响这种自我评估,如教育、职业和劳动力市场上的地位、住房舒适度、家庭生活水平的上升或下降轨迹等。

Abstract:This methodological paper proposes a combination of methods for evaluating the gender gap in life expectancy at birth between different populations. This approach consists of three steps. First, the abridged life tables per gender are calculated. Second, the gender differences in life expectancy at birth are decomposed by age by applying a relevant procedure. In the final step, an agglomerative cluster analysis method is applied. Several problems of this method are discussed and ways to overcome them are proposed. Results indicate the method's validity and sensitivity in portraying the segmentation or differences between countries in a cross-sectional study.

Abstract:Women, as bearers and rearers of children, form the foundation for bringing about the next generation of human resources for the economy. To breed good human resources, better nutrition for pregnant women & lactating mothers (PW & LM) is essential. It provides a strong economic justification for maternity benefits interventions. There is diversity in maternity benefits under the various programs implemented in different countries in formal and informal economies. Most of the developed, as well as developing countries, have legislation/policies for providing universal health coverage for PW & LM employed in the formal economy. But women employed in the informal economy lack social protection and paid maternity leaves, especially in low- and middle-income countries. The informal sector employs 60 percent of the female workforce and non-contributory cash transfers can be an innovative way to improve mother and neonatal nutritional status. This study presents a state-of-the-art review of the provisions of maternity benefits and their outcome in different nations as well as their implications on maternal and newborn health. An efficiently implemented maternity benefits program with the provision of cash incentives, nutrition supplement package, and paid maternity leave has several outcomes in terms of long duration & frequent exclusive breastfeeding, distribution of resources & disintegration of poverty transfer, reduced financial and gender inequality, quality childcare – which develops self-confidence and improved social & learning skills for better competence and career attainments – reduced MMR and IMR. And it is more of an investment in its human resource rather than a financial burden for a nation. This paper also addresses key issues in the field of maternal health care and can be advantageous for both beneficiaries as well as policymakers.
摘要:女性作为孩子的承担者和抚养者,是为经济带来下一代人力资源的基础。为了培养良好的人力资源,孕妇和哺乳期母亲(PW和LM)的更好营养是必不可少的。它为产妇福利干预提供了强有力的经济理由。在不同国家、正式经济体和非正式经济体实施的各种方案中,产妇福利存在差异。大多数发达国家和发展中国家都制定了立法/政策,为在正规经济中就业的妇女和妇女提供全民医疗保险。但是,在非正规经济中就业的妇女缺乏社会保护和带薪产假,特别是在低收入和中等收入国家。非正规部门雇用了60%的女性劳动力,非缴费性现金转移支付可以成为改善母亲和新生儿营养状况的一种创新方式。本研究对产妇福利的规定及其在不同国家的结果及其对产妇和新生儿健康的影响进行了最新的审查。通过提供现金奖励、营养补充方案和带薪产假,有效实施的产妇福利计划在以下方面取得了若干成果:长时间和频繁的纯母乳喂养、资源分配和贫困转移的解体、减少经济和性别不平等、高质量的儿童保育(培养自信,提高社交和学习技能,以提高能力和职业成就)、降低产妇死亡率和儿童死亡率。它更像是对人力资源的投资,而不是一个国家的财政负担。本文还讨论了孕产妇保健领域的关键问题,对受益者和决策者都是有利的。

Abstract:This paper explores a new localism dynamic in American communities redeveloping their socioeconomic base for a more stable and promising future. Key to this new localism is the recognition that each community has its own economic and population base linked with neighboring communities. The role of state and local governments is also considered in creating focal sectors. The case of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is used as a specific example of how local communities can welcome new businesses and people, spawning a new localism that becomes a driving force in creating stable and prosperous communities.
摘要:本文探讨了美国社区在重建社会经济基础以实现更稳定和更有希望的未来方面的一种新的地方主义动态。这种新地方主义的关键是认识到每个社区都有自己与邻近社区联系在一起的经济和人口基础。在创建重点部门时也考虑到州和地方政府的作用。宾夕法尼亚州匹兹堡市的案例被用作一个具体的例子,说明当地社区如何欢迎新的企业和人员,从而产生一种新的地方主义,这种地方主义成为创造稳定和繁荣社区的动力。

Abstract:This paper investigates the impact of economic growth on the female labor force participation rate (FLPR) in six selected South Asian countries by employing balanced panel data from 2000 to 2019. Pairwise Dumitrescu Hurlin Panel causality test is used to examine the panel causality test between economic growth and FLPR. Pooled OLS, random effects, fixed effect, PCSE, and dummy variable interaction models are used to examine the impact of economic growth. The panel causality test confirms a unidirectional relationship from economic growth to FLPR. The panel regression confirms the U-shape relationship in Pakistan, while Bangladesh, India, and Nepal predict inverse U-shape relationships. Maldives and Bhutan are showing an insignificant relationship between FLPR and economic growth. This study also indicates a joint significant and U-shaped relationship between FLPR and economic growth within six selected South Asian countries. The control variable female fertility, shows negative and significant while female education shows positive and significant impacts on FLPR. Therefore, governments of the region should frame various policies to improve the female labor market through access to education and various training programs. Further, they should provide access to child care, skill development, maternity provisions, accessible and safe transport, job reservations in different public sectors, and pattern of growth that generates more jobs.
摘要:本文采用2000 - 2019年均衡面板数据,研究了南亚6个国家经济增长对女性劳动力参与率的影响。采用两两Dumitrescu Hurlin面板因果检验检验经济增长与FLPR之间的面板因果检验。采用集合OLS、随机效应、固定效应、PCSE和虚拟变量相互作用模型检验经济增长的影响。面板因果检验证实了经济增长与FLPR之间存在单向关系。面板回归证实了巴基斯坦的u型关系,而孟加拉国、印度和尼泊尔预测了反u型关系。马尔代夫和不丹在FLPR和经济增长之间表现出微不足道的关系。本研究还表明,在选定的六个南亚国家中,FLPR与经济增长之间存在显著的u型关系。对照变量女性生育能力对FLPR的影响为负向显著,女性受教育程度对FLPR的影响为正向显著。因此,该地区各国政府应制定各种政策,通过提供教育和各种培训计划来改善女性劳动力市场。此外,它们应该提供儿童保育、技能发展、产妇服务、便利和安全的交通、在不同公共部门保留工作岗位,以及创造更多就业机会的增长模式。

Taylor’s Law and the Relationship between Life Expectancy at Birth and Variance in Age at Death in a Period Life Table 泰勒定律及周期生命表中出生时预期寿命与死亡时年龄差异的关系
IF 0.7 Q4 DEMOGRAPHY Pub Date : 2022-02-24 DOI: 10.1353/prv.2022.0001

Abstract:Mean age at death in a period life table is a major indicator of population health, as is the table’s variance in age at death. Taylor’s Law is a widely observed empirical pattern that relates variances to means in sets of non-negative measurements via an approximate power function. It has found application to human mortality. We add to this research by showing that Taylor’s Law leads to a model that reasonably describes the relationship between mean age at death in a life table (which is the same as life expectancy at birth) and the life table’s variance in age at death. We built a demonstration model, tested its accuracy, and found that it provides reasonably accurate estimates of variance in age at death in a life table. Employing independent data, the model was used to provide estimates of variance at age in death for six countries, three of which have high levels of life expectancy at birth and three of which have lower levels. The two parameters in Taylor’s Law, a and b, can be interpreted, respectively, as: (1) a ≈ the product of life expectancy at birth and the sum of mean years lived and mean years remaining; and (2) b ≈ the square of life expectancy at birth. This provides Taylor’s Law with a theoretical foundation when it is used to estimate variance in age at death in life tables constructed for human and other species. A significant strength of our application is that where mean age at death itself is estimated, it provides an estimate of variance in age at death that may not otherwise be available. This is useful because major agencies have produced estimates of life expectancy at birth for small areas. We illustrate this important application of the TL Method using empirical data and conclude that there is a need for a model that can produce accurate estimates of variance in age at death in a life table.
摘要:周期生命表中的平均死亡年龄是人口健康状况的一个重要指标,也是周期生命表中死亡年龄方差的一个重要指标。泰勒定律是一种广泛观察到的经验模式,它通过近似幂函数将方差与非负测量集的均值联系起来。它已被应用于人类死亡。我们通过显示泰勒定律得出了一个模型,该模型合理地描述了生命表中平均死亡年龄(与出生时的预期寿命相同)与生命表中死亡年龄方差之间的关系。我们建立了一个示范模型,测试了它的准确性,发现它对生命表中死亡年龄的方差提供了相当准确的估计。采用独立数据,该模型用于估计六个国家的死亡年龄差异,其中三个国家的出生时预期寿命水平较高,另外三个国家的预期寿命水平较低。泰勒定律中的两个参数a和b可以分别解释为:(1)a≈出生时预期寿命与平均寿命与平均剩余年数之和的乘积;(2) b≈出生时预期寿命的平方。这为泰勒定律用于估计人类和其他物种生命表中死亡年龄的差异提供了理论基础。我们的应用程序的一个重要优势是,在估计平均死亡年龄本身时,它提供了可能无法获得的死亡年龄方差估计。这是有用的,因为主要机构已经对小地区的出生时预期寿命进行了估计。我们使用经验数据说明了TL方法的这一重要应用,并得出结论,需要一种能够准确估计生命表中死亡年龄方差的模型。

Taylor’s Law is a widely observed empirical pattern that relates variances to means in sets of non-negative measurements via an approximate power function. It has found application to human mortality. We add to this research by showing that Taylor’s Law leads to a model that reasonably describes the relationship between mean age at death in a life table (which is the same as life expectancy at birth) and the life table’s variance in age at death. We built a demonstration model, tested its accuracy, and found that it provides reasonably accurate estimates of variance in age at death in a life table. Employing independent data, the model was used to provide estimates of variance at age in death for six countries, three of which have high levels of life expectancy at birth and three of which have lower levels. The two parameters in Taylor’s Law, a and b, can be interpreted, respectively, as: (1) a ≈ the product of life expectancy at birth and the sum of mean years lived and mean years remaining; and (2) b ≈ the square of life expectancy at birth. This provides Taylor’s Law with a theoretical foundation when it is used to estimate variance in age at death in life tables constructed for human and other species. A significant strength of our application is that where mean age at death itself is estimated, it provides an estimate of variance in age at death that may not otherwise be available. This is useful because major agencies have produced estimates of life expectancy at birth for small areas. We illustrate this important application of the TL Method using empirical data and conclude that there is a need for a model that can produce accurate estimates of variance in age at death in a life table.","PeriodicalId":43131,"journal":{"name":"Population Review","volume":"3 1","pages":"31 - 42"},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81251069","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}

Abstract:In Morocco, the fertility transition process, like changes in fertility preferences, has been accompanied by a notable improvement in women's status. The aim of this paper is to study the impact of Moroccan women's empowerment on the actual-ideal gap, an indicator that measures the gap between two components, the number of surviving children and the ideal number of children, and hence on their ability to limit their fertility to this ideal. To build a good indicator of the empowerment, we used the SWPER composite index proposed in the literature, which is based on several dimensions, including participation in decision-making, attitude towards male violence, and other conventional measures of women's status such as education and participation in economic activity. The empirical examination was conducted using the Skellam method, which models difference between two Poisson variables. Data were derived from two national population and family health surveys conducted in 2004 and 2011. The results indicate that there is a plausible negative association between women's empowerment and the ideal number of children. However, the relationship with the number of surviving children is not always verified. The lack of a link between women's empowerment and the actual-ideal gap can hide a non-symmetric and equally strong effect on its two components. Moreover, in an advanced transition context, women's empowerment may not operate significantly on surviving fertility because of actual constraints like contraceptive efficiency and sex preferences.
摘要:在摩洛哥,生育转型过程与生育偏好的变化一样,一直伴随着妇女地位的显著提高。本文的目的是研究摩洛哥妇女赋权对实际-理想差距的影响,这是一个衡量两个组成部分之间差距的指标,即幸存子女数量和理想子女数量,从而影响她们将生育率限制在这一理想水平的能力。为了建立一个良好的赋权指标,我们使用了文献中提出的SWPER综合指数,该指数基于几个维度,包括决策参与、对男性暴力的态度,以及其他衡量女性地位的传统指标,如教育和经济活动的参与。使用Skellam方法进行实证检验,该方法模拟两个泊松变量之间的差异。数据来自2004年和2011年进行的两次全国人口和家庭健康调查。研究结果表明,妇女赋权与理想子女数量之间存在似是而非的负相关关系。然而,与幸存儿童数量的关系并不总是得到核实。妇女赋权与实际与理想差距之间缺乏联系,可能会掩盖对其两个组成部分的不对称和同样强烈的影响。此外,在高级过渡背景下,由于避孕效率和性别偏好等实际限制,赋予妇女权力可能不会对幸存的生育能力产生重大影响。
