A study on the effects of minimum wage on income inequality, taking into account the effects of various kinds of automation within the economy.
|
||||
The study considers several types of automation, with automation on the extensive margin (automation of more tasks) leading to decreased wage inequality between low-skill and high-skill earners if it results in decreased overall outputs due to wage compression, and vice versa for increased total outputs.
|
||||
Automation on the intensive margin (increased productivity of automating existing tasks) has ambiguous effects on the employment share of low-skill workers (who are possibly displaced) and a higher minimum wage here decreases the inequality between low-skill wages and higher-skill wages.
|
||||
However, it may also result in a ripple effect which results in the overall share of income of low-skill workers not increasing, if more machines or high-skill workers displace them.
|
||||
Then, while the wage differences may decrease, the low-skill workers share of national income is identified as non-increasing and the share of low-skill employment could decrease.
|
||||
The effects on low-skill income share under a system of minimum wage are thus primarily dependent on the amount of low-skill job displacement, as well as the effects of the minimum wage on overall economic output in the first place.
|
||||
Ultimately, the author also suggests the institution of low-skill worker training programmes either targeting enhanced productivity for their existing tasks ('deepening skills') or enabling their capability for undertaking tasks previously only assigned to high-skill workers ('expanding skills') which would respectively counteract the negative automation effects on both margins.

A qualitative analysis of the impacts of social protection reforms, especially pensions, in Turkey on the gender equality and gender pay gap on in pensions and on the labour market.
|
||||
It finds that, while policy efforts are made in the Turkish system to strive toward gender 'neutralization' in law, the gender-blindness of the implementations obstructs genuine equality.
|
||||
The social security system still excludes the majority of women, especially those who are seen as dependents of their husbands or fathers (especially house-wives).
|
||||
Aside from lower access, women's generally lower wages and shorter paid work lives also lower benefits, especially those from pensions.
|
||||
Additionally, while men are subject to means-testing for receiving widowers' entitlements and only receive survivor's benefits until age 18,
|
||||
women receive the entitlement until they start working, or are married ---
|
||||
another factor which may contribute to a skewed female labour market participation rate.

A study modeling the effects of transport infrastructure investments in Tanzania on rural income inequalities and household welfare inequalities, modeled through consumption indicators.
|
||||
Generally it finds that the results of public investment measures into transport infrastructure largely depend on the financing scheme used.
|
||||
Comparing four financing schemes when looking at the effects on rural households, it finds that they are generally worse off when the development is deficit-financed or paid through tariff revenues.
|
||||
On the other hand, rural households benefit through increased income from measures financed through consumption taxes, or by external aid.
|
||||
The general finding is that there is no pareto optimum for any of the investment measures for all locations,
|
||||
and that much of the increases in welfare are based on movement of rural workers out of quasi-subsistence agriculture to other locations and other sectors.
|
||||
The study creates causal inferences but is limited in its modeling approach representing a limited subset of empirical possibility spaces,
|
||||
as well as having to make the assumption of no population growth for measures to hold.

A study on the effects of labour, business and credit regulations, FDI and school enrolment on the income inequality in developing countries from 1970 to 2012.
|
||||
It finds that in MENA, SSA, LAC and to some extend AP increased labour and business regulations are actually negatively related to equitable income distribution, with market regulation not having significant effects.
|
||||
Similarly, FDI is negatively related and the authors suggest it is unlikely to generate general welfare effects in developing countries as it often has the wrong targeting incentive structure.
|
||||
The authors identify developing countries lacking in institutional capability to accomplish regulatory policies optimized for benefits and see the need for policies requiring more specific targeting of inequality reduction as their agenda.
|
||||
On the other, they find school enrolment and thus education-oriented policies to be positively related with an equitable income distribution,
|
||||
suggesting it increases the capacity of public administration practitioners and in turn lead to more adapted policies specific to developing countries' institutional contexts.
|
||||
Overall, the authors suggest that regulatory policy in developing countries needs to be built for their specific contexts and not exported from developed countries due to their different institutional capabilities and structural makeup.
|
||||
The study is limited in its design focus that lying purely on the macro-level regional analyses and can thus, when finding correlations towards income inequality, also only identify far-reaching structural and institutional possible root causes.

A study on the effects of unequal distributions of political power on the extent and provision of collective labour rights.
|
||||
It is a combination of quantitative global comparison with qualitative case studies for Argentina and Chile.
|
||||
It finds that, for societies in which power is more unequally distributed, collective bargaining possibilities are more limited and weaker.
|
||||
It suggests that, aside from a less entrenched trade unionization in the country, the primary channel for the its weakening are that existing collective labour rights are often either restricted or disregarded outright.
|
||||
Employers were restricted in their ability to effectively conduct lobbying, and made more vulnerable to what the authors suggest are 'divide-and-conquer' strategies by government with a strongly entrenched trade unionization, due to being more separate and uncoordinated.
|
||||
A limit is the strong institutional context of the two countries which makes generalizable application of its underlying channels more difficult to the overarching quantitative analysis of inequality outcomes,
|
||||
which retains a potential for measurement bias due to country-level concurrent shocks.

A study on the impacts of an urban micro-finance programme in Malaysia on the economic empowerment of women.
|
||||
The programme introduced the ability for low-income urban individuals to receive collateral-free credit.
|
||||
The study finds that the programme, though not specifically aimed at women, indeed increased women's economic empowerment with an increase in household decision-making, as well as increased personal economic security.
|
||||
Primarily this is due to the increased access to finance, though it also functions thorugh an increase of collective agency established for the women in organised meetings and trainings.
|
||||
It also finds, however, that the empowerment outcomes are constrained by the inability for individuals to obtain loans, with the programme only disbursing group loans which are harder to achieve through obstacles to collective organisation by different racial and socio-demographic backgrounds in each dwelling.
|
||||
The study is somewhat limited in its explanatory power since even through its random sampling design it can not establish control for all factors required in experimental design.

A study on the effects of both political orientation of governments' parties and a country's trade unionization on its income inequality.
|
||||
It finds that, generally, strong unionization is strongly related to decreasing income inequality, most likely through a redistribution of political power through collective mobilization in national contexts of stronger unions.
|
||||
It also suggests that in contexts of weaker unionization, post-redistribution income inequality is higher, thus also fostering unequal redistributive policies.
|
||||
Lastly, it finds positive relations between right-wing orientation of a country's government and its income inequality, with more mixed results for centrist governments pointing to potential fragmentations in their redistributive policy approaches.
|
||||
The study is mostly limited in not being able to account for individual drivers (or barriers) and can thus not disaggregate for the effects for example arbitration or collective bargaining.

A study using a microsimulation to estimate the effects of a minimum wage increase in New Zealand on overall income inequality and further disaggregations along gender and poverty lines.
|
||||
It finds limited redistributional effects for the policy, with negligible impact on overall income inequality and the possibility of actually increasing inequalities among lower percentile income households.
|
||||
Additionally, while it finds a significant reduction in some poverty measures for sole parents that are in employment, when looking at sole parents overall the effects become insignificant again.
|
||||
The authors suggest this points to bad programme targeting, which at best has negligible positive impact on income equality and at worst worsens income inequality in lower income households, due to may low-wage earners being the secondary earners of higher-income households but low-wage households often having no wage earners at all.
|
||||
A pertinent limitation of the study includes its large sample weights possibly biasing the impacts on specific groups such as sole parents and thus being careful not to overestimate their significance.

A study on the effects of the introduction of legal access to contraceptive measures for women in the United States, measuring the impacts on closing the gender gap through the gendered hourly working wage distribution.
|
||||
The study finds that of the closing gender pay gap from 1980 to 2000, legal access to 'the pill' as contraceptive from an early age contributed by nearly percent in the 1980s and over 30 percent in the 1990s.
|
||||
Thus, overall the authors estimate that nearly one third of total female wage gains during this time were attributable to legal access to contraception.
|
||||
The primary channels identified are greater educational attainment, occupational upgrading, and increased labour market experience made possible due to no early exit.
|
||||
The authors also argue that the pill spurred individual agency to invest in personal human capital and career.
|
||||
However, there are some limitations to the findings: The dataset cannot capture specific access to contraception beyond age 20, which makes the window of analysis more restricted and especially focused on the segment of women under 21.
|
||||
Additionally, the study can not control for social multiplier effects such as employers reacting with changed hiring or promotion patterns or expectations about marriage and childbearing, as well as the overall coinciding paradigmatic change in norms and ideas about women's work and end of the national baby boom.

|
||||
An observational study on the effects of the policy trajectories of European countries concerning long-term care work, with a special focus on the impacts on gender equality.
|
||||
The trajectories for the study are mostly described through measures of social protection and social security such as pensions or the provision of residential or at-home care facilities, regulation and fiscal policies.
|
||||
Regarding the effects on the labour market it uses the full-time equivalent employment rate gap between men and women.
|
||||
It finds that few countries in Europe fit one of the ideal-type household their ranking predicted, between male bread-winner, unsupported double-earner and supported double-earner households.
|
||||
Only half of the countries clearly fall into one of the three ideal-types and no countries fall into the category of male bread-winner.
|
||||
While supported double-earner type is mostly prevalent in Western Europe and the Scandinavian countries, Southern and Eastern Europe are predominantly shaped by the unsupoorted double-earner type.
|
||||
Generally, more women will take on more unpaid care work in this model especially, though the prevalence exists in all models, which also explains the employment rate gap not decreasing significantly.
|
||||
Where it decreases, the 'familialization' of care work is often undergoing a process of being taken on as cash-for-care work by migrants in a rising work sector in the former countries, which in turn may slightly increase the overall female labour force participation.
|
||||
However, relying on this type of work may not be sustainable or provide decent work, as it often remains poorly regulated and low paid, and may in turn have negative consequences on gender inequality in migrant communities or home countries.
|
||||
Some limitations of the study include its scarce underlying data for comparable care work and care migration data, as well as the weak categorization possibilities perhaps obscuring incongruent patterns of policy effects.

A study looking at the effects of a housing mobility intervention in the United States on employment for disadvantaged households,
|
||||
and comparing its impacts to the ownership of a car for the same sample.
|
||||
It follows the 'Moving to Opportunity' programme which provided vouchers to randomized households for movement to a geographically unrestricted area or to specifically to a low-poverty area (treatment group),
|
||||
some of which are in areas with well-connected public transport opportunities.
|
||||
The sample for the study is made up predominantly of women (98%).
|
||||
No relationship between programme participation and increased employment probability could be established.
|
||||
However, a positive relationship exists between owning an automobile and improved employment outcomes for low-income households,
|
||||
as well as including those households that are located in 'transit-rich' areas.
|
||||
Access to better transit itself is related to employment probability but not gains in employment -
|
||||
the authors suggest this reflects individuals' strategic relocation to use public transit for their job.
|
||||
However, moving to a better transit area itself does not increase employment probability,
|
||||
perhaps pointing to a certain threshold required in transit extensiveness before it facilitates employment.
|
||||
Ultimately, the findings suggest the need to further individual acess to automobiles in disadvantaged households or for extensive transit network upgrade which have to cross an efficiency threshold.
|
||||
Some limitations of the study are its models low explanatory power for individual outcomes, more so among disadvantaged population groups,
|
||||
as well as some remaining possibility of endogeneity bias through unobserved factors such as individual motivation or ability.

A study on the introduction of univeral paid maternal leave in Australia, looking at its impacts on mothers returning to work and the conditions they return under.
|
||||
It finds that, while there is a short-term decrease of mothers returning to work since they make use of the introduced leave period, over the long-term (after six to nine months) there is a significant positive impact on return-to-work.
|
||||
Furthermore, there is a positive impact on returning to work in the same job and under the same conditions,
|
||||
the effects of which are stronger for more disadvantaged mothers (measured through income, education and access to employer-funded leave).
|
||||
This suggests that the intervention reduced the opportunity costs for delaying the return to work, and especially for those women that did not have employer-funded leave options, directly benefiting more disadvantaged mothers.
|
||||
Some potential biases of the study are its inability to account for child-care costs, as well as not being able to fully exclude selection bias into motherhood.
|
||||
There also remains the potential of results being biased through pre-birth labor supply effects or the results of the financial crisis, which may create a down-ward bias for either the short- or long-term effects.

A study on the wage gap in the Italian labour market, looking especially at the effects of collective negotiation practices.
|
||||
It finds that the Italian labour market's wage gap exists primarily due to occupational segregation between the genders, with women often working in more 'feminized' industries, and not due to educational lag by women in Italy.
|
||||
It also finds that collective negotiation practices targeting especially managerial representation and wages do address the gender pay gap, but only marginally significantly.
|
||||
The primary channel for only marginal significance stems from internal heterogeneity in that only the median part of wage distributions is significantly affected by the measures.
|
||||
Instead, the authors recommend a stronger mix of policy approaches, also considering the human-capital aspects with for example active labour-market policies targeting it.
|
||||
A limitation of the study is the short-term explanatory power of its underlying dataset consisting of a cross-sectional decomposition.

An analysis of the potential factors influencing mentally ill individuals in the United States to participate in the labour force, using correlation between different programmes of Medicaid and labour force status.
|
||||
In trying to find labour force participation predictors it finds employment motivating factors in reduced depression and anxiety, increased responsibility and problem-solving and stress management being positive predictors.
|
||||
In turn barriers of increased stress, discrimination based on their mental, loss of free time, loss of government benefits and tests for illegal drugs were listed as barriers negatively associated with labour force participation.
|
||||
For the government benefits, it finds significant variations for the different varieties of Medicaid programmes, with the strongest netagive labour force participation correlated to Medicaid ABD, a programme for which it has to be demonstrated that an individual cannot work due to their disability.
|
||||
The authors suggest this shows the primary channel of the programme becoming a benefit trap, with disability being determined by not working and benefits disappearing when participants enter the labour force, creating dependency to the programme as a primary barrier.
|
||||
Two limitations of the study are its small sample size due to a low response rate, and an over-representation of racial minorities, women and older persons in the sample mentioned as introducing possible downward bias for measured labour force participation rates.

A study looking at the effects of minimum wage increases on a country's income inequality, looking at the impacts in a sample of 43 countries, both LMIC and HIC.
|
||||
Using a general-equilibrium model, it finds that there are differences between the short-term and long-term effects of the increase:
|
||||
In the short term it leads to a reduction of the skilled-unskilled wage gap, however an increase in unemployment and welfare,
|
||||
while in the long term the results are an overall decrease in wage inequality as well as improved social welfare.
|
||||
It finds those results primarily stem from LMIC which experience significant effects driven by a long-term firm exit from the urban manufacturing sector thereby increasing available capital for the rural agricultural sector, while in HIC the results remain insignificant.
|
||||
The study uses the Gini coefficient for identifying a country's inequality.
|
||||
Some limitations of the study include the necessity to omit short-term urban firm exit for the impact to be significant, as well as requiring the, reasonable but necessary, prior assumption of decreased inequality through increased rural agricultural capital.

A simulation study on the income inequality effects of both a policy targeting a reduction in working time and the introduction of a universal basic income in Italy.
|
||||
It finds that while both decrease overall income inequality, measured through Gini coefficient, they do so through different channels.
|
||||
While provision of a universal basic income sustains aggregate demand, thereby spreading income in a more equitable manner,
|
||||
working time reductions significantly decrease aggregate demand through lower individual income but significantly increases labour force participation and thus employment.
|
||||
It also finds that through these channels of changing aggregate demand, the environmental outcomes are oppositional, with work time reduction decreasing and UBI increasing the overall ecological footprint.
|
||||
One limitation of the study is the modeling assumption that workers will have to accept both lower income and lower consumption levels under a policy of work time reduction through stable labour market entry for the results to hold.

An experimental study on the impacts of providing childcare vouchers to poor women in urban Kenya, estimating the impacts on their economic empowerment.
|
||||
The empowerment is measured through disaggregated analyses of maternal income, employment probability and hours worked.
|
||||
It finds that, for married mothers there was a significantly positive effect on employment probability and hours worked, suggesting their increased ability to work through lower childcare costs increasing personal agency.
|
||||
For single mothers, it finds a negative effect on hours worked, though with a stable income.
|
||||
The authors suggest this is due to single Kenyan mothers already working increased hours compared to married mothers, though the effect shows the ability of single mothers to shift to jobs with more regular hours, even if they are not compatible with childcare.
|
||||
Minor limitations of the study are its restriction to effects within a period of 1 year, and a somewhat significant attrition rate to the endline survey.

A study on the impact difference of special education between young men and women on their relative employment probabilities and incomes.
|
||||
It finds that, overall, young women with disabilities were significantly less likely to be employed, earned less than males with disabilities, had lower likelihood of obtaining a high school diploma and were more likely to be a biological parent.
|
||||
For the employment outcomes, the primary channels identified were men with disabilities being in employment both more months in the preceding period and more hours per week on average than women with disabilities.
|
||||
Overall, more women were employed in clerical positions and substantially more men employed in technical or skilled positions for both special education and the control samples.
|
||||
Similarly, for income there was a gender-based difference for the whole sample, though with substantial internal heterogeneity showing only marginal differences between men and women in the high-achieving subsample and the largest differences in the low-achieving and special needs subsample.
|
||||
The suggestions include a strengthening of personal agency to remain in education longer and delay having children through self-advocacy and -determination transition services for young women to supplement structural education efforts.
|
||||
Some limitations include initial subsample selection based on parent-reporting possibly introducing selection bias and the special education sample not including students with more severe impairments due to the requirement of self-reporting.

A study on the return to work ratios for high-skill women workers in public academic universities in the United Kingdom, comparing the results for those in fixed-term contract work versus those in open-ended contracts.
|
||||
It finds that there is a significantly decreased return to work probability for those working under fixed-term contracts, and most universities providing policies with more limited access to maternity payment for fixed-contract staff.
|
||||
This is possibly due to provisions in the policies implicitly working against utilization under fixed-terms:
|
||||
there are strict policies on payments if a contract ends before the maternity leave period is over, and obligations on repayments if not staying in the position long enough after rtw.
|
||||
Additionally, most policies require long-term continuous service before qualifying for enhanced payments in the maternity policies.
|
||||
There is high internal heterogeneity between the univserities, primarily due to the diverging maternity policy documents, only a small number of the overall dataset providing favorable conditions for fixed-term work within.

A study looking at the impact of the cash transfer programme Oportunidades in Mexico, conditioned on a household's children school attendance, on income inequality among others.
|
||||
It finds that a combination of effects raises the average income of the poorest households by 23 percent.
|
||||
The authors argue in the short run this benefits households through the direct cash influx itself, as well as generating a positive wage effect benefitting those who keep their children at work.
|
||||
For the estimation of income inequality it uses the Gini coefficient.
|
||||
Additionally, over the long-term for the children in the model there is a direct benefit for those whose human capital is increased due to the programme, but also an indirect benefit for those who did not increase their human capital, because of the increased scarcity of unskilled labor as a secondary effect.
|
||||
Due to the relatively low cost of the programme if correctly targeted, it seems to have a significantly positive effect on the Mexican economy and its income equality.

A study looking at the returns of the Tanzanian 'Universal Primary Education' program on consumption and on rural labour market outcomes.
|
||||
The programme both attempted to increase access to schools but also changed curricula to contain more technical classes, judged relevant to increase equity in rural areas.
|
||||
Even though the programme aims to increase universal equality of access to education, the study finds that gender, geographical and income inequalities persist throughout, with individuals that complete primary education more likely to be male urban wage workers.
|
||||
The study measures returns purely on consumption of households to show the estimated effect on their productivity ---
|
||||
here, it finds generally positive returns but greatest for non-agricultural work, self-employed or as wage work.
|
||||
Importantly, the introduction of more technical classes, however, also changes employment sector choices, with men working less in agricultural work and more in non-farm wage sectors and an increased probability for rural women to both work in agriculture and to work formally.
|
||||
Limitations of the study include the inability to directly identify intervention compliers and having to construct returns for each household head only and a possibly unobserved 'villagization' effect by bringing people together in community villages for their education leading to other unobserved variable impacting the returns.

A study on the effect of trade unionization in European labour markets, with a specific emphasis on its effects on gender inequalities.
|
||||
It finds, first of all, that increased unionization is related to the probability of being employed on a standard employment contract for both men and women.
|
||||
It also finds no evidence that men seem to carry increased benefits from increased unionization, although in combination with temporary contract and family policy re-regulations, men do seem to experience greater benefits than women.
|
||||
At the same time women's employment under standard contracts does not decrease, such that there is no absolute detrimental effect for either gender.
|
||||
It does, however, pose the question of the allocation of relative benefits between the genders through unionization efforts.
|
||||
The study is limited in that, by averaging outcomes across European nations, it can not account for nation-specific labour market contexts or gender disaggregations.

A study interested in the long-run effects on children's outcomes of increasing the period of paid leave for mothers in Germany.
|
||||
While the study focuses on the children's outcomes, it also analyses the effects on the return to work rates and cumulative incomes of the policies within the first 40 months after childbirth.
|
||||
It finds that, while short-term increases of paid leave periods (up to 6 months) significantly increased incomes, over longer periods (10-36 months) the cumulative incomes in fact decreased significantly,
|
||||
marginally for low-wage mothers for 10 month periods, and across all wage segments for 36 month periods.
|
||||
For the share of mothers returning to work, it finds that there is a significant increase in the months away from work among all wage segments for all paid leave period increases, positively correlated with their length.
|
||||
Still similar numbers of mothers return once the leave period ends, though with significant decreases for leave periods from 18 to 36 months.
|
||||
For its analysis of long-term educational outcomes on children, however, it does not find any evidence for the expansions improving children's outcomes, even suggesting a possible decrease of educational attainment for the paid leave extension to 36 months.
|
||||
Some limitations of the study include its sample being restricted to mothers who go on maternity leave and some control group identification restrictions possibly introducing some sampling bias.

|

|
||||
A study on the effects of direct state transfers to people in poverty in the post-socialist countries of Hungary, Romania and Bulgaria.
|
||||
It first lookst at the correlations of socio-demographic characteristics with poverty to find that in each country there was an increased probability for poverty of low-education, larger and predominantly Roma households.
|
||||
It also found that poverty itself was most feminized Hungary, the country with the most advanced market transition in the study period, and least feminized in Bulgaria, the country with the least advanced market transition, and suggests that poverty may have feminized as the market transitions progressed.
|
||||
For the state transfers it found that while the level of payments may have been too small to eliminate longer-term adverse effects of the market transitions,
|
||||
in each country's case the transfers to individuals reduced their poverty and were beneficial at least in the short term.
|
||||
The authors thus suggest that their findings may be compatible both with an institutionalist perspective seeing poverty-eliminating benefits in the short term and with an underclass perspective which contends that nonetheless the transfers do not eliminate the deprivations members of disadvantaged groups face, while providing little evidence for generating welfare dependency proposed in a more neoclassical perspective.
|
||||
However, due to no long-term panel data available to fully analyse the underclass and neoclassical arguments, these findings should not be understood too generalizable.

A study on the effects of a more unionized workforce in the United States, on the representation of women and minorities in the management of enterprises.
|
||||
It finds that while stronger unionization is associated both with more women and more minorities represented in the overall workforce and in management, this effect is only marginally significant.
|
||||
Additionally, there are drivers which may be based on unobservables and not a direct effect ---
|
||||
it may be a selection effect of more unionized enterprises.
|
||||
It uses union elections as its base of analysis, and thus can not exclude self-selection effects of people joining more heavily unionized enterprises rather than unionization increasing representation in its conclusions.

An experimental study looking at the effects of granting women increased access to their own financial accounts and training, on their employment and hours worked, as well as long-term economic empowerment.
|
||||
The background of the experiment was the rural Indian MGNREGS[^1] programme which, despite ostensibly mandated gender wage parity, runs the risk of discouraging female workers and restrictring their agency by depositing earned wages into a single household account --- predominantly owned by the male head of household.
|
||||
To grant increased financial access, the treatment changed the deposits into newly opened individual accounts for the women workers, as well as providing additional training to some women.
|
||||
It found that, short-term, the deposits into women's individual accounts in combination with provided training increased their labour supply, while longer-term there was an increased acceptance of female work in affected households and a significant increase in women's hours worked.
|
||||
The impacts on increased hours worked were concentrated on those households where previously women worked relatively lower amounts and there were stronger norms against female work while less constrained households' impacts dissipated over time.
|
||||
The authors suggest the primary channel is the newly increased bargaining power through having a greater control of one's income, and that it in turn also reflects onto gender norms themselves.

A qualitative study on the mechanisms of workplace accomodation for people with mental health conditions to allow their successful return-to-work.
|
||||
The intervention is based on an accommodation which disaggregates the effects of social and technical components of the process and included a disclosure and psychoeducational plan.
|
||||
It finds that successfull return-to-work through accommodation requires consideration of the social component ('who is involved'), with unsuccessful accommodation often only relying on the functional aspect ('what is involved').
|
||||
The primary barrier identified for successful return-to-work are actually relationship issues not functional ones, with supervisors playing a key role for the success of the accommodation process.
|
||||
Additionally, it highlighted the necessity of strengthening the individual agency of the returnee, accomplished in the intervention through a concrete training plan with the worker but also with other key workplace players such as the supervisors.
|
||||
Additionally, providers must be willing to develop a disclosure plan with the employee and enter the workplace itself to adequately assist in the accommodation process.
|
||||
Limitations to the study include the limited generalizability of its findings with a small non-randomized sample size and restriction to mental health disability.

A study looking at the distributional effects of introducing a minimum wage in Britain, with a specific spatial component.
|
||||
Overall it finds little effect on income inequality in the country.
|
||||
It finds that the effects on rural areas differ depending on their proximity to urban areas.
|
||||
While overall income inequality only decreases a small amount, the intervention results in effective targeting with remote rural households having around twice the reduction in inequality compared to others.
|
||||
Rural areas that are accessible to urban markets are less affected, with insignificant impacts to overall income inequality reduction.
|
||||
One limit of the study is that it has to assume no effects on employment after the enaction of the minimum wage for its results to hold.

A study modeling the effects of a targeted wage subsidy aimed at low- and medium-skilled workers and provided to their employers as an incentive for new job creations, looking at its effects on poverty and income inequality in South Africa.
|
||||
The study finds that, using the Gini coefficient, the overall income inequality reduced by 0.5 percentage points, which provides an insignificant outcome.
|
||||
This primarily occurs because of an overall income redistribution and especially an increase in formal employment for low- and medium-skill workers.
|
||||
Using an absolute poverty headcount ratio, it finds that a significant 1.6 per cent of households move out of poverty, with similar changes observed across urban and rural spaces.
|
||||
They attribute this primarily to income gains for poorer households and the targeting benefiting the poorest households most by providing them greater income gains.
|
||||
Limitations of the study include the general equibilibrium model approach being potentially restricted by its prior assumptions in validity and generalizability, as well as potentially not accounting for unobservables or exogenous shocks.

A study on the labour force impacts for women of reductions in child care costs in Norway.
|
||||
It finds that overall the reductions in child care cost increased the female labour supply in the country (by about 5 per cent),
|
||||
while there were no significant impacts on mothers which already participated in the labour market.
|
||||
It also finds some internal heterogeneity, with the impact being strongest for low-education mothers and low-income households,
|
||||
a finding the authors expected due to day care expenditure representing a larger part of those households' budgets thus creating a larger impact.
|
||||
Though it may alternatively also be generated by the lower average pre-intervention employment rate for those households.
|
||||
Interestingly when disaggregating by native and immigrant mothers there is only a significant impact on native mothers,
|
||||
though the authors do not form an inference on why this difference would be.
|
||||
A limitation of the study is that there was a simultaneous child care capacity increase in the country,
|
||||
which may bias the labour market results due to being affected by both the cost reduction and the capacity increase.

An experimental study looking at the effects of providing free childcare for poor urban mothers in Nicaragua under the 'Programo Urbano', looking at the effects on inequality for mothers and children.
|
||||
It finds that providing free childcare for young children of poor mothers significantly increases the employment probability of the mothers (14ppts) independently of the childcare quality.
|
||||
It also finds significantly positive impacts on the human capital of the children, though dependent on the quality of childcare facilities.
|
||||
This suggests childcare costs being removed through a quasi-subsidy reducing the required childcare time burden on mothers, increasing parental agency and employment choices.
|
||||
Some limitations to the study include a relatively small overall sample size, as well as employment effects becoming insignificant when the effect is measured on randomization alone (without an additional instrumental variable).

A simulation study on the effects of trade liberalization through FTA on income inequality in Pakistan between different households, measured through the Gini coefficient.
|
||||
It finds that there is no clear general direction for changes through FTA visible, with its impact primarily depending on micro-economic factors.
|
||||
Some large trade agreements are negatively correlated with the Gini while others are positively related, similar to regional and bilateral agreements.
|
||||
Gnerally, this is due to increases in the income of poor rural agricultural farm households being dependent on grain (which is the largest export good often rising under FTA), while livestock predominantly owned by poor rural households decreases in returns under FTA.
|
||||
The deciding channel can then be increases on the wages of farm workers (after among others grain export increases) increasing income equity, which, when they do not happen, can in turn lead to an overall decrease.
|
||||
Lastly, there are wage compression effects between urban and rural households, with richer urban households often decreasing processed food or service production.
|
||||
A greater mobility would dissipate all short-term gains and losses, as changes would get more evenly distributed across regions and households, while over the long term some positive aspects on income equality are visible if increased agricultural growth can be sustained.
|
||||
The study may have some limits to its generalizability due to the production factor reallocations for agricultural households being specific to the rural poor context in Pakistan.

A study looking at the effects of Japan's move to decarbonise its energy sector on employment, especially rural employment.
|
||||
It finds that, while employment in general is positively affected, especially rural sectors benefit from additional employment probability.
|
||||
This is due to the renewable energy sector, while able to utilise urban areas for smaller scale power generation, being largely attached to rural areas for larger scale projects such as geothermal, wind power or large-scale solar generation.
|
||||
The study also suggests some possible inequality being created in between the different regions of Japan due to the Hokkaido region having limited transmission line capacity and locational imbalance between demand and potential supplies.
|
||||
Limitations include its design as a projection model with multiple having to make strong assumptions about initial employment numbers and their extrapolation into the future,
|
||||
as well as having to assume the amount of generated power to increase as a stable square function.

A study on the effects of previous inequalities on the outcomes of a work programme in India intended to provide job opportunity equality for already disadvantages population.
|
||||
It specifically looks at the NREGA programme in India, and takes the land-ownership inequality measured through the Gini coefficient as its preceding inequality.[^nrega]
|
||||
The study finds that there is significantly negative relationship between the Gini coefficient and the provision of jobs through the work programme.
|
||||
In other words, the workfare policy implemented at least in part to reduce a district's inequality seems to be less effective if there is a larger prior capital inequality.
|
||||
The authors see the primary channel to be the landlords' opposition to broad workfare programme introduction since they are often followed by overall wage increases in the districts.
|
||||
They suggest that in more inequally distributed channels the landlords can use a more unequal power structure to lobby and effect political power decreasing the effectiveness of the programmes,
|
||||
in addition to often reduced collective bargaining power on the side of labour in these districts.
|
||||
The results show the same trends for measurement of land inequality using the share of land owned by the top 10 per cent largest holdings instead.
|
||||
|
||||
[^nrega]: The National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGA) is a workfare programme implemented in India, the largest of its kind, which seeks to provide 100 days of employment for each household per year. It was rolled out from 2005 over several phases until it reached all districts in India in 2008.

A simulation model on the effects of trade liberalization in Sri Lanka on income inequality and absolute poverty.
|
||||
It finds that the complete elimination of tariffs results in an overall reduction in absolute poverty, while tariff elimination with resulting fiscal policy responses to balance the budget would result in more mixed results but still pointing to an absolute reduction in poverty.
|
||||
On the other hand, income inequality is seen to increase for most sectors over the short term and for all sectors over the long term.
|
||||
The primary channels for this change are increased wage differences --- especially the increased wages for managers, professionals and technicians, as well as increased differences between urban workers ---
|
||||
and low-income households being more dependent on private or government transfers, which do not increase with trade liberalization.

An analysis of the effects of minimum wage increases on income inequality in Romania.
|
||||
It finds that, generally, minimum wage increases correlate with small wage inequality decreases, but carry a larger impact for women.
|
||||
The channels for the policies effects are two-fold in that there is an inequality decrease as the number of wage earners in total number of employees increases,
|
||||
as well as the concentration of workers at the minimum level mattering --- the probable channel for a larger impact on women since they make up larger parts of low-income and minimum wage households in Romania.
|
||||
Limitations to the study are some remaining unobservables for the final inequality outcomes (such as other wages or incomes), the sample over-representing employees and not being able to account for any tax evasion or behavioural changes.

A study on the income inequality in Singapore and how national education policies impact this inequality, looking especially at the 'Yearly Awards' scheme and the 'Edusave Entrance Scholarship for Independent Schools'.
|
||||
It finds that, generally, income inequality for migrants in Singapore is relatively high, primarily due to generated between-occupational income inequalities and migration policies which further stimulate occupational segregation.
|
||||
Then, for the higher-education interventions, it identifies issues which may exacerbate the existing inequalities along these lines:
|
||||
Already-advantaged (high-income) households generally stem from non-migration households and are also reflected in higher representation of high-achievement education brackets.
|
||||
The education policies thus may exacerbate income inequality through their bad targeting when considering inter-generational academic achievements with high-education households remaining the primary beneficiaries of the policies, a finding which is more significant for the 'Edusave Entrance Scholarship for Independent Schools' than the 'Yearly Awards' scheme which has fewer benefit accruals to wealthier households.
|
||||
More generally, the study suggests that the system of financing for higher education in Singapore aiming for providing equal education opportunity for all, may in fact further disadvantage poorer, low-income households that have a low-education parental background.

A study on the effects of introductions of a variety of maternity leave laws in Japan on the employment numbers and job quality of women.
|
||||
Contrary to notions of demand-side mechanisms of the welfare state paradox, with women being less represented in high-authority employment positions due to hiring or workplace discrimination against them with increased maternity benefits,
|
||||
it finds that this is not the case for the Japanese labour market between 1992 and 2009.
|
||||
There were no increases in hiring discrimination against women, and either no significant change in promotions for firms not providing paid leave before the laws or instead a positive impact on promotions for firms that already provided paid leave.
|
||||
The authors suggest the additional promotions were primarily based on voluntary compliance of firms in order to maintain positive reputations, signaled through a larger positive response to incentive-based laws than for mandate-based ones.
|
||||
Additionally, the authors make the conjecture that the welfare paradox may rather be due to supply-side mechanisms, based on individual career planning, as well as reinforced along existing gender divisions of household labour which may increase alongside the laws.
|
||||
Limitations of the study include foremost its limited generalizability due to the unique Japanese institutional labour market structure (with many employments, for example, being within a single firm until retirement), as well as no ability yet to measure the true causes and effects of adhering to the voluntary incentive-based labour policies, with lasting effects or done as symbolic compliance efforts and mere impression management.

A study on the impacts of allowing increased access to social welfare provisions and education to urban migrants in China, looking at the effects on wage inequality between skilled and unskilled sectors and workers.
|
||||
It uses skilled-unskilled inequality instead of rural-urban inequalities since the real wages of the rural sector are already much lower in China, making comparisons along the 90th to 10th decile ratios more difficult.
|
||||
The study finds that reforms to increase access to social security and education for urban migrants decreases wage inequality between the sectors if the skilled sector is more capital intensive than the unskilled sector, though it makes no specific identification of individual channels.
|
||||
There are several limitations to the study such as no disaggregation between the private and the (very important for the Chinese economy) public sector, job searching not being part of the model, and, most importantly, a severely restricted generalizability due to the reform characteristics being strongly bound to the institutional contexts of Chinese *hukou* systems.

A study looking at the effects of vocational rehabilitation on employment probabilities, as well as the factors influencing successful employment, in the United States.
|
||||
It finds that the primary factors negatively correlated with sucessful employment were for women in the sample, for having mental illness or traumatic brain injury as the primary disability, having multiple disabilities, an interpersonal or self-care impediment and receiving social security benefits.
|
||||
On the other hand, having participated in a youth-transition training programme, as well as making use of more vocational rehabilitation services, are correlated with an increased employment probability.
|
||||
It thereby highlights the gendered dimension of employment probabilities and points to a necessity to focus training and rehabilitation efforts along multiple dimensions.
|
||||
Some limitations of the study include its limited generalizability, having a sample located in a single state, as well as a dataest intended for service provision not academic pursuits possibly introducing unreliability in its data and not measuring service quality.

A cross-country analysis on the impacts of structural changes in Brazil, Mexico, Thailand and India from 1987 to 2008, and its effects on female labour market participation and the gender wage gap.
|
||||
Basing its analysis on the theory of capital displacing brawn in production for transition economies, it finds that all countries had reduced brawn requirements over time, though with large heterogeneity: Thailand lead the change with 15 percentage points while India had the smallest change with 0.2 percentage points.
|
||||
Following this, there was the largest steady labour market participation inequality in India, while there were mixed results for Mexico and Thailand, with Brazil having female employment shares changes similar to that of the United States.
|
||||
The channels here are seen as a reduced requirement for physical labour replaced by for example more service-oriented economies ('brawn' to 'brain').
|
||||
For female wage shares, in Brazil the wage gap closed most rapidly, though it began widening in 2005, while Thailand and India had converging but mixed changes.
|
||||
In Mexico, while the gap widened during the 1990s, it began closing again afterwards.
|
||||
The differences in wage gap effects compared to both other countries and the respective country's physical labour market requirements show that contextual structural changes played a large role in each case:
|
||||
with erstwhile reduced returns on Brazilian returns for brain intensive occupations, the introduction of a female-lead manufacturing sector in Mexico in the 90s, and widely diverging basic labour market skill structures in Thailand and India necessitating subsistence-oriented participation; the results show impacts of structural changes, though limited through a variety of mediating factors influencing each case.

An experimental study on the impacts of benefits and vocational counseling for disabled veterans in the United States, measuring effects on the return to work through average hours worked.
|
||||
It identifies time worked through a timeline follow-back calendar, measuring the change in days worked in the 28 days preceding the final study measurement.
|
||||
Here, it finds the sessions having a significant increase on more waged days worked, with an additional three days for the 28 preceding days on average.
|
||||
One limitation is the inability of the study to locate an active ingredient:
|
||||
Though the intervention clearly aims at strengthening some aspect of individual agency, the exact mediators are not clear, with neither beliefs about work, beliefs about benefits, nor provided service use for mental health or substance abuse impacted significantly.

A qualitative study on the significance of vocational and educational training provided for disabled veterans in the United States.
|
||||
It finds that both the vocational and educational services help strengthen individual agency, autonomy and motivation but impacts can be dampened if the potential for disability payment loss due to the potential for job acquisition impedes skill development efforts.
|
||||
The primary barriers of return to work efforts identified are an individual's health problems as well as various programmes not acommodating the needs of disabled veteran students,
|
||||
while the primary Facilitators identified are financial assistance provided for education as well as strengthened individual agency through motivation.
|
||||
Some limitations include a possible bias of accommodations required through the sample being restricted to veterans with a caregiver, which often signals more substantial impairments than for a larger training-participatory sample, as well as the data not being able to identify the impact of supported employment.

A study on the effects of providing relatively higher wages for teachers, as well as fertility differences, on labour market participation of young female teachers.
|
||||
It finds that providing relatively higher wages for teaching professions as compared to non-teaching professions significantly increases female labour force participation for teachers, though the strongest determinant for it is possessing a college major in education, with overall education level being another determinant.
|
||||
The study also looks at the effects of the presence of a new-born baby and finds that it significantly decreases female labour force participation and is almost twice as large for women in the teaching profession as compared to non-teaching jobs, though it does not have an effect on the choice of job between teaching or non-teaching.
|
||||
The authors suggest this relatively higher exit from the labour market for women with new-born babies in teaching professions may once again be due to low wages: teachers leaving the labour market experience relatively lower temporary wage losses than in other professions, decreasing the exit-cost.
|
||||
A limitation of the study is its restricted focus on strictly female underlying panel data which does not allow for comparisons between genders within or across professions.

A study on the impacts of minimum wage and direct cash transfers in Brazil on the country's income inequality but especially the way the policies interact with spatial inequalities.
|
||||
It finds that incomes between regions have converged during the time frame and overall the cash transfers under the 'Bolsa Familia' programme and minimum wage were accounting for 26.2% of the effect.
|
||||
Minimum wage contributed 16.6% of the effect to overall Gini reduction between the regions while cash transfers accounted for 9.6% of the effect.
|
||||
The authors argue that this highlights the way even non-spatial policies can have a positive (or, with worse targeting or selection, negative) influence on spatial inequalities,
|
||||
as transfers occuring predominantly to poorer regions and minimum wages having larger impacts in those regions created quasi-regional effects without being explictly adressed in the policies.
|
||||
Some limitations include limited underlying data only making it possible to estimate the cash transfer impacts for the analysis endline,
|
||||
and minimum wage effects having to be constructed from the effects wages equal to minimum-wage.

A study on the impact of subsequent minimum wage floor introductions on poverty and income inequality in Brazil.
|
||||
It finds that in the short-term (3 months) wage floor increases reduced poverty by 2.8% and reduced income inequality by 2.4%.
|
||||
Over the longer-term these impacts decrease, and the minimum wage increases only show diminishing returns when the legal minimum is already high in relation to median earnings.
|
||||
It suggests that additional unemployment costs, created through new job losses through the introduction, are offset by the increased benefits --- the higher wages for workers.
|
||||
The authors also suggest an inelastic relationship between increases and poverty incidence.
|
||||
One limitation of the study is the limit of tracking individuals in the underlying data which can not account for people moving household to new locations.
|
||||
The data can only track individual dwellings --- instead of the households and inhabitants within --- and thus resembles repeated cross-sectional data more than actual panel data.

An experimental study on the effects of providing UBI for villages in India on absolute low-income household debts, utilizing a combination of qualitative and quantitative experimental research.
|
||||
It finds that the provision of UBI significantly reduced household debts, finding generally agreeing with assumptions in the literature, but goes beyond this by investigating the qualitative causes going beyond purely monetary value into what the authors call 'emancipatory value'.
|
||||
They find UBI reduces dependency risk - primarily to lenders with high associated fees by allowing the repayment of existing debt, not having to work for the lender directly or by providing them parts of their wages, avoiding taking on new debts and, if new debts have to be taken on, allows choosing less exploitative forms of borrowing (such as from relatives or friends).
|
||||
The last channel especially is a point of interest of the study: the intervention did not just reduce absolute debts through an individual possessing more money, it generally infused more money into the local contexts, reducing its scarcity and allowing others such as neighbors and friends to provide more collective risk spreading in the villages..
|
||||
The intervention also significantly increased possibility of saving in treatment households, allowing for an increased economic security and empowerment, which was also influenced by houshold head education, landholding, the household's caste and size.
|
||||
The main channel this is accomplished through is a shift to institutionalized saving, with provides increased resilience against shock events.

An observational study looking at the inclusionary or exclusionary effects of the infrastructure development of a solar park in India which specifically aims to work towards micro-scale equality through regional upliftment.
|
||||
The project included a training and temporary employment to local unskilled/semi-skilled labor.
|
||||
It finds that the development instead impacted equality negatively, creating socio-economic exclusion and disproportionately negatively affected women of lower castes.
|
||||
While acquiring basic additional skills, none of the women participating in training remained connected to the operators of the solar park and none were hired.
|
||||
An insignificant amount of women from local villages were working at the solar park, of which most belonged to the the dominant caste, and the redistributive potential was stymied through capture by village female elites.
|
||||
The author suggests this is an example of institutional design neglecting individual agency and structural power relations, especially intersectional inequalities between gender and caste.
|
||||
The study is limited in explanatory power through its observational design, not being able to make causal inferences.

A study on the effects of structural changes on married women's employment in South Korea, looking specifically at the impact of education and family structure.
|
||||
It finds that educational interventions significantly increase the employment probability of married women, and it finds overall female labour force participation showing a negative correlation with income inequality.
|
||||
However, education alone is only a necessary not a sufficient condition for increased employment, with a married woman's family size and family structure having an impact as well.
|
||||
Finally, education also has an intergenerational impact, with the female education also positively relating to daughters' education levels.

An experimental survey combined with qualitative interviews for participants of a vocational training programme in Australia, looking at the effects on participants' hours worked and incomes.
|
||||
It finds, foremost, that initially both the hours worked and the income of people with disabilities are lower on the Australian labour market in general and this reflects in the results for the disability group of participants, which have significantly lower weekly incomes and hours worked than the control group.
|
||||
Over time, hours worked increase for the disability group to no longer be significantly different but still lower than for the control group (from 3.1 hours to 1 hour difference per week),
|
||||
however there are large fluctuations in the control group.
|
||||
Similarly, the wages of the disability group are initially substantially lower than of the control group,
|
||||
which increases to be non-significant though still lower over time, more so for the earnings of female participants and participants which received a disability pension.
|
||||
Relevant limitations of the study include the use of a non-representative sample for the national representativeness,
|
||||
and the overall generalisability being low due to an increased labour force participation bias and attrition bias of the surveys,
|
||||
as well as only having access to a small control sample size.
|
||||
Thus, findings should be understood as guiding policy directions, while generalisations should be done with care as some of the larger changes may be due to those limitations,
|
||||
such as the increased survey response of those with positive wage outcomes.

An observational study on the levels of social assistance benefits and wages in a national comparative study within 26 OECD countries.
|
||||
It finds that real minimum income benefit levels generally increased in most countries from 1990 to 2009, with only a few countries, mostly in Eastern European welfare states, showing decreases during the time frame.
|
||||
The majority of changes in real benefit levels are from deliberate policy changes and the study calculates them by a comparison of the changes in benefit levels to the changes in consumer prices.
|
||||
Secondly, it finds that changes for income replacement rates are more mixed, with rates decreasing even in some countries which have increasing real benefits levels.
|
||||
The study suggests this is because benefit levels are in most cases not linked to wages and policy changes also do not take changes in wages into account resulting in diverging benefit levels and wages, which may lead to exacerbating inequality gaps between income groups.

A simulation on the effects of ending subsidies for the agricultural grain sectors in China, analysing among others the effects on rural-urban income inequality.
|
||||
The study finds that while it would over time boost the industrial economic structural transformations, rural-urban income inequality is indeed exacerbated if grain subsidies are to be removed, especially in the short term.
|
||||
Over the longer term the real wage decreases of rural workers would attenuate, indicating that the rural income ratio would increase but fail to completely close the gap.
|
||||
The authors suggest this is on the one hand due to the displacement of rural unskilled labour, leading to an increase of unskilled labour supply which is difficult to absorb into the manufacturing or service sectors,
|
||||
while on the other hand the low income and price elasticity of agricultural products drives down overall rural incomes.
|
||||
Thus, the authors uncover a trade-off between national economic output over the long term which they identify as adversely affected by the subsidies,
|
||||
and the rural-urban income ratios which the subsidies help decrease, though with decreasing contributions over time.
|
||||
Some limitations of the study include the necessity to assume static national employment and, more importantly,
|
||||
a limited generalisability due to simulating the specific Chinese structural economic characteristics in the resulting model.

An analysis of the spatial consequences of a UK work programme on spatial factors of job deprivation or opportunity increases.
|
||||
The programme follows a quasi-marketized approach of rewarding employment-favourable results of transitions into employment and further sustained months in employment.
|
||||
The author argues, however, that the non-spatial implementation of the policy leads to spatial outcomes.
|
||||
Founded on the approach of social 'creaming' and 'parking' and applied to the spatial dimension,
|
||||
the study shows that already job-deprived areas indeed experience further deprivations under the programme,
|
||||
while non-deprived areas are correlated with positive impacts, thereby further deteriorating spatial inequality outcomes.
|
||||
This occurs because of providers in the programme de-prioritizing the already deprived areas ('parking') in favour prioritizing wealthier areas for improved within-programme results.

A study looking at the impacts of minimum wage increases in Ecuador specifically on the income and hours worked of low-wage earners.
|
||||
It finds that, generally, there was a significant increase on the income of low-wage earners and also a significant increase on wage workers hours worked which would reflect positively on a decrease in the country's income inequality.
|
||||
At the same time, it finds some potential negative effects on the income of high earners, suggesting an income-compression effect as employers freeze or reduce high-earners wages to offset low-earners new floors.
|
||||
The findings hide internal heterogeneity, however:
|
||||
For income the effect is largest for agricultural workers while for women the effect is significantly smaller than overall affected workers.
|
||||
For hours worked there is a significant negative impact on women's hours worked, a fact which may point to a decreased intensive margin for female workers and thus also affect their lower income increases.
|
||||
Limitations of the study include some sort-dependency in their panel data and only being able to account for effects during a period of economic growth.

A study on the effects of trade liberalization and FDI on income inequality in 38 countries in the Sub-Saharan region.
|
||||
It finds that increased FDI is negatively correlated with income inequality measured through the Gini coefficient, while trade liberalization is positively correlated with income inequality ---
|
||||
as are corruption, political stability, rule of law and education, which contradicts a variety of previous studies.
|
||||
The authors suggest this may be due to the difference in sample and variables used, and the periods under study.
|
||||
They suggest that FDI may primarily go to the agricultural sector which can employ low-skilled labour and thereby reduce inequalities,
|
||||
while trade openness in fact creates jobs in other countries through higher import than export rates.
|
||||
They do not provide clear channels through which education positively correlates with inequality, though some possibilities are an unequal access to education (through excluding factors such as those based on spatial, gender or financial inequalities), as well as a differentiated quality of education.
|
||||
Limitations of the study are the region-wide level of analysis which may obscure context-dependent mechanisms within the different institutional-structural contexts of the countries and potential hidden unobservables which may bias the results.
