abstract: 'Spain is one of the Southern European nations characterized by very low
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inter-provincial mobility rates despite large inter-regional
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unemployment rate differences. We examine whether non-contributory
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pensions - an increasingly important component of many welfare systems,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
have curtailed the internal migration of younger cohorts over the past
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
three decades. Using changes in the number of beneficiaries brought
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
about by a policy reform in 1991, we show that old-age non-contributory
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pensions are associated with reduced internal migration of 25-to-35 year
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
old men and women with less human capital. The effects do not appear to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
be driven by intergenerational reciprocity or quid pro quo exchanges,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and do not extend to other types of pensions, hinting on systematic
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment barriers faced by younger, less educated, or unexperienced
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
men and women from lower income households qualifying for these
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
pensions. The ability to rely on the support from older family members
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
residing nearby might provide a lifeline but, simultaneously, curtail
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
their propensity to out-migrate.'
