Intergenerational income mobility and returns to education in Southern Brazil
This study analyzes intergenerational income mobility in Southern Brazil. Previous research has demonstrated that Brazil continues to be one of the least mobile countries in the world; however, the country has experienced strong socioeconomic advances in recent decades that may have affected mobility. The use of data from the 1982 birth cohort in the city of Pelotas, in the extreme south of Brazil, makes this one of the first studies to estimate mobility using direct observations of parental and filial income in Brazil. Using various estimation techniques, the results reveal relatively high income mobility compared with past Brazilian standards. Mobility is higher for nonwhites, extremely similar across genders, and higher among the poor. The findings indicate that increased government investment in education and reduced returns to education in recent decades are possible channels.
期刊介绍:
Economic Modelling fills a major gap in the economics literature, providing a single source of both theoretical and applied papers on economic modelling. The journal prime objective is to provide an international review of the state-of-the-art in economic modelling. Economic Modelling publishes the complete versions of many large-scale models of industrially advanced economies which have been developed for policy analysis. Examples are the Bank of England Model and the US Federal Reserve Board Model which had hitherto been unpublished. As individual models are revised and updated, the journal publishes subsequent papers dealing with these revisions, so keeping its readers as up to date as possible.
