abstract: 'This paper is in empirical attempt to quantify caste-based
discrimination in the labor market using household data taken from rural
North India. In the regression analysis, transaction costs associated
with entry into the labor market and reservation wages are estimated
simultaneously along with market wages. The estimation results provide
evidence of the existence of transaction costs in the labor market and
discrimination against backward classes with regard to access to regular
employment. In line with previous studies, the results suggest that the
achievements of India''s reservation policy so far have at best been
limited. In addition, a comparison between the estimates from the model
employed in this paper and conventional (reduced-form) approaches shows
that discrimination in labor market entry is likely to be underestimated
in the conventional reduced-form approaches. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All
