ABSTRACT Migration played a central role in industrialisation by reallocating labour from the countryside to urban areas and centres of manufacturing where it was in high demand, and better remunerated, with implications for economic growth and individual well-being. We investigate the labour market performance of internal migrants in Sweden around the turn of the last century; a period of industrialisation and increasing migration. We add to the literature in two ways: first by focusing on earnings instead of occupational attainment; second by extending the scope beyond the prevailing focus on men by also considering women. To assess how migrants fared compared to locals, we use detailed matched firm-individual data covering three manufacturing industries which varied in terms of production, organisation, and composition of the workforce. We find that migrants, irrespective of gender, performed well in that their earnings were higher than those of locals in general and of co-workers in the same firm. These premia are consistent with a Roy model in which migrants’ sort into locations where returns to skills match individual ability. An increase in both hours worked and effort further explains the observed earnings premium among female migrants.
移民在工业化中发挥了核心作用,将劳动力从农村重新分配到城市地区和制造业中心,在那里劳动力需求高,报酬高,对经济增长和个人福祉有影响。我们调查了上个世纪之交瑞典内部移民的劳动力市场表现;工业化和移民增加的时期。我们通过两种方式补充文献:首先是关注收入,而不是职业成就;第二,将范围扩大到普遍关注的男性之外,也考虑到女性。为了评估移民与本地人相比的表现,我们使用了详细的匹配公司-个人数据,涵盖了三个制造业,这些制造业在生产、组织和劳动力构成方面各不相同。我们发现,无论性别如何,移民的表现都很好,因为他们的收入总体上高于当地人和同一家公司的同事。这些溢价与罗伊的模型一致,在罗伊模型中,移民会进入技能回报与个人能力相匹配的地区。工作时间和努力的增加进一步解释了在女性移民中观察到的收入溢价。

The Norwegian forest concession law of 1909 and concession policy 1909–28 1909年的挪威森林租界法和1909 - 28年的租界政策

ABSTRACT This paper employs a case study of the Norwegian forest concession law of 1909 and concession policy from 1909–28 to examine the expansion of state resource regulation at the start of the 1900s. The case is studied by examining the main aims of the law and what concession policy was conducted for forests between 1909–28. The forest concession law of 1909 regulated the sale of forests, requiring all buyers of forest property larger than municipal limits to acquire concession. Strict limitations were set on domestic companies’ ability to purchase forests, while foreign companies were effectively barred. Non-local Norwegian citizens were also required to acquire concession. The forest concession law had four aims: (1) Improve local political and economic conditions, (2) Stop foreign acquisitions of forests, (3) Avoid monopolies and unhealthy competition, (4) Avoid speculation on forests. The Norwegian forest concession policy was, in nearly the entire period, to support local and municipal forest ownership and restrict both foreign and domestic companies’ ownership of forests. The law was similar to Finnish and Swedish forest regulations in promoting social goals such as protecting farmers and crofters but was somewhat more protective than the Finnish and Swedish regulations.
本文以挪威1909年的森林租界法和1909 - 28年的租界政策为例,考察了20世纪初国家资源管制的扩张。本文通过考察该法律的主要目的以及1909-28年间对森林实施的特许政策来研究该案例。1909年的森林特许权法规定了森林的销售,要求所有超过市政限制的森林财产的购买者获得特许权。对国内公司购买森林的能力设置了严格的限制,而外国公司实际上被禁止。非本地挪威公民也必须获得特许权。森林特许权法有四个目的:(1)改善当地的政治和经济条件;(2)阻止外国收购森林;(3)避免垄断和不健康的竞争;(4)避免对森林的投机。挪威的森林特许政策几乎在整个期间都是支持地方和市政森林所有权,并限制外国和国内公司对森林的所有权。在促进诸如保护农民和佃农等社会目标方面,该法律与芬兰和瑞典的森林条例类似,但在某种程度上比芬兰和瑞典的条例更具保护性。

Nationalisation of foreign property in the Russian revolution: the Swedish case 俄国革命中外国财产的国有化:瑞典的例子

ABSTRACT In contrast to other economic calamities such as financial crises or war, the topic of nationalisation has received only little attention by economic and business historians. Drawing on Russian and Swedish archival sources, this paper takes stock of the economic losses incurred on foreign investors in the 1917 Russian revolution, with particular emphasis on the Swedish case. Constructing lower and upper bounds for the losses, the paper argues that depending on the chosen measure these were in the range from 380 to 1,140 million SEK in 1917. For a country that remained neutral throughout two world wars, the Russian revolution represents one of the largest (if not the largest) externally incurred losses on Swedish firms and households in modern history. These results suggest that the role of revolutions in international business history needs to be better understood.
摘要与金融危机或战争等其他经济灾难相比,国有化话题很少受到经济和商业历史学家的关注。本文借鉴俄罗斯和瑞典的档案资料,对1917年俄罗斯革命中外国投资者遭受的经济损失进行了评估,特别是瑞典的案例。在构建损失的下限和上限时,论文认为,根据所选择的衡量标准,1917年损失在3.8亿至1.14亿瑞典克朗之间。对于一个在两次世界大战中都保持中立的国家来说,俄罗斯革命是现代史上瑞典公司和家庭遭受的最大(如果不是最大的话)外部损失之一。这些结果表明,革命在国际商业史上的作用需要更好地理解。

Scraping the bottom of the barrel? Evidence on social mobility and internal migration from rural areas in nineteenth-century Norway 刮桶底?19世纪挪威农村地区社会流动和内部移民的证据

ABSTRACT We aim to answer whether expected occupational gains motivated rural-urban and rural-rural migration in nineteenth-century Norway. Human capital theory indicates that the higher expected gains, the more prone an individual will be to migrate. We use a micro-level data set of over 42,000 rural sons linked to their fathers based on 1865 and 1900 Norwegian censuses and employ a switching endogenous regression model controlling for the endogeneity of migration decisions. Our main finding is that the effect of expected occupational gain on the probability of rural-urban migration differs according to the rural sons’ destination and parental occupational status: the sons from low status families were migrating motivated by expected occupational advancement. Sons from families with higher occupational status were motivated by expected occupational gains only in the case of rural-urban migration.
我们的目的是回答在19世纪的挪威,预期的职业收益是否激励了农村-城市和农村-农村的移民。人力资本理论表明,个体的预期收益越高,其迁移倾向越大。我们使用了基于1865年和1900年挪威人口普查的4.2万多名农村儿子与其父亲相关的微观数据集,并采用了一个切换内生回归模型来控制迁移决策的内生性。我们的主要发现是,期望职业增益对农村-城市迁移概率的影响根据农村儿子的目的地和父母职业地位的不同而不同:低地位家庭的儿子受到期望职业提升的激励而迁移。来自较高职业地位家庭的儿子只有在从农村向城市迁移的情况下才会受到预期职业收益的激励。

A technical workforce for regional industrial development? Origin and dispersion of graduates from the technical secondary schools in Malmö and Borås 1855–1930 区域工业发展的技术劳动力?1855年至1930年马尔默和博尔斯中专毕业生的来源和分布

ABSTRACT This article connects to the discussion on skills and knowledge during the early industrialisation. It focuses on how two out of four technical secondary schools in Sweden (Malmö and Borås) lived up to their aims communicated by politicians and other stakeholders: to provide emerging industries and crafts in their regions with technicians and to prepare for studies at the Technological Institute. Initially, a majority of students came from the school regions, but the share of long-distance students increased over time. A majority served in industry and craft, and the study reflects chemistry’s and electricity’s breakthrough with increasing shares of graduates employed over time. Several graduates continued to further studies; not only at the Technological Institute but also elsewhere in Sweden and abroad. As for the purpose to provide the regions with technicians, the results are ambiguous. Many graduates, especially from Borås, moved to other parts of Sweden and abroad. Malmö graduates stayed more often in the school region because Malmö was a larger city, and the school region more industrially diversified. The brain-drain from the school regions was not necessarily problematic as in-migration of technicians from other schools compensated.
摘要本文与早期工业化期间关于技能和知识的讨论有关。它重点关注瑞典四分之二的中专学校(马尔默和博尔斯)如何实现政治家和其他利益相关者传达的目标:为所在地区的新兴产业和工艺提供技术人员,并为在理工学院学习做准备。最初,大多数学生来自学校地区,但随着时间的推移,远程学生的比例有所增加。大多数人在工业和工艺领域工作,这项研究反映了化学和电学的突破,随着时间的推移,毕业生的就业比例不断增加。几名毕业生继续深造;不仅在理工学院,而且在瑞典和国外的其他地方。至于为这些地区提供技术人员的目的,结果并不明确。许多毕业生,尤其是来自Borås的毕业生,搬到了瑞典其他地区和国外。马尔默的毕业生更多地留在学校区域,因为马尔默是一个更大的城市,学校区域的工业更加多样化。学校地区的人才外流并不一定有问题,因为从其他学校迁移技术人员是有补偿的。

The price of neutrality: ocean freight rates and shipping policy towards the Northern Neutrals during the First World War 中立的代价:第一次世界大战期间对北方中立国的海运费率和航运政策

ABSTRACT In 1915 and 1916, nearly one half of the total tonnage engaged in the trade of the UK was flying foreign flags. The Northern Neutrals, comprising the three Scandinavian countries, accounted for a large share of the neutral merchant fleet. A new set of detailed regional freight rate indices covering the period 1910–1920 provides the basis for comparing earnings from different trades during the First World War. This article shows that the UK authorities directed neutral tonnage into routes that were more hazardous but also much less remunerative than alternative trade routes in Asia and America. Thus, the price of neutrality comprised both loss of tonnage and foregone freight earnings for Scandinavian shipping. The new data series also form the basis of a discussion of how the wartime shipping controls created economic inefficiencies by distorting the shipping trade.
在1915年和1916年,英国从事贸易的总吨位中有近一半是悬挂外国国旗的。由三个斯堪的纳维亚国家组成的北方中立国占了中立国商船队的很大一部分。一套新的详细的区域运价指数涵盖了1910-1920年期间,为比较第一次世界大战期间不同行业的收入提供了基础。这篇文章表明,英国当局将中性吨位引导到更危险的路线上,但也比亚洲和美洲的替代贸易路线报酬低得多。因此,中立的代价既包括吨位损失,也包括斯堪的纳维亚航运放弃的运费收入。新的数据系列也为讨论战时航运管制如何通过扭曲航运贸易造成经济效率低下奠定了基础。

Income inequality in Finland, 1865–2019 芬兰的收入不平等,1865-2019

ABSTRACT This study contributes to long-run inequality discussions by presenting a new series of Finnish income inequality statistics for the years 1865–2019. It shows that income inequality rose and peaked during the industrialisation phase at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Overall, top income shares decreased during the first part of the twentieth century, mainly as a result of shocks to capital (e.g. civil war, WWI & WWII) and rising taxation. After 1948, income inequality rebounded slightly until the advent of the welfare state in the mid-1960s. The role of redistribution through taxes and transfers strengthened and inequality decreased considerably until the late 1980s. During the 1990s, however, income inequality significantly increased, which was driven by capital incomes in the top income groups. Moreover, top income taxes started to diminish already in the late 1970s, and a great taxation reform was enacted in the 1990s, which partly explains the growing income inequality. In contrast, income inequality has remained at relatively similar levels in the twenty-first century.
本研究通过提供1865-2019年芬兰收入不平等的一系列新统计数据,为长期的不平等讨论做出了贡献。它表明,收入不平等在19世纪和20世纪之交的工业化阶段上升并达到顶峰。总体而言,最高收入占比在20世纪上半叶下降,主要是由于资本冲击(如内战、第一次世界大战和第二次世界大战)和税收增加。1948年之后,收入不平等略有反弹,直到20世纪60年代中期福利国家的出现。直到1980年代末,通过税收和转移进行再分配的作用得到加强,不平等现象大大减少。然而,在20世纪90年代,收入不平等显著加剧,这是由最高收入群体的资本收入推动的。此外,最高收入税在20世纪70年代末已经开始减少,20世纪90年代实施了一项重大的税收改革,这在一定程度上解释了收入不平等日益加剧的原因。相比之下,收入不平等在21世纪一直保持在相对相似的水平。

ABSTRACT This paper examines the specificities of interpersonal credit networks in both a rural and an urban setting in pre-industrial Finland. To analyse peer-to-peer lending, the article studies a sample of 1047 probate inventories from the town of Kristinestad and its surrounding rural area, the parish of Lappfjärd. These probate inventories feature more than 5000 credit relations between households for the period 1850–1855 and 1905–1914. This paper also concerns itself with the changes pertaining to the advent of banking institutions in the mid-nineteenth century. Traditional behavioural sciences argue that formal institutions replaced informal ones because they are more efficient, more inclusive, or both. No longer needed, informal institutions are supposed to have disappeared when formal ones emerged. But this argument does not consider the social context – or embeddedness, a term coined by Granovetter – and the individuals evolving in it. Embeddedness does not disappear. Therefore, one may ask how banks penetrated communities and the credit networks that were already in place in order to supplant private lending. Tools from social network analysis help to draw insights into the features and changes pertaining to credit networks.
摘要本文考察了工业化前芬兰农村和城市环境中人际信贷网络的特殊性。为了分析点对点贷款,本文研究了来自Kristinestad镇及其周边农村地区Lappfjärd教区的1047份遗嘱认证清单样本。这些遗嘱认证清单显示了1850年至1855年和1905年至1914年期间5000多个家庭之间的信用关系。本文还关注与19世纪中期银行机构出现有关的变化。传统行为科学认为,正式机构取代了非正式机构,因为它们更高效、更具包容性,或者两者兼而有之。当正式机构出现时,非正式机构就不再需要了。但这一论点没有考虑社会背景——或者Granovetter创造的术语“嵌入性”——以及在其中进化的个人。嵌入性并没有消失。因此,人们可能会问,银行是如何渗透到已经存在的社区和信贷网络中,以取代私人贷款的。社交网络分析工具有助于深入了解信贷网络的特点和变化。
