Lau, Sau-Him Paul; Ng, Philip Hoi-Tak – Journal of Economic Education, 2007

Most economists expect the current economic downturn to be one of the most severe since World War II. In fact, there is a very real danger that the changing circumstances of students, families, state and federal governments, and educational institutions could interact to significantly diminish educational opportunity in the United States. The most…

Fogg, Neeta P.; Harrington, Paul E. – Continuing Higher Education Review, 2009
The authors examine how the American economy has experienced sharp contractions in overall levels of output, income, and wealth resulting from the recent financial crisis, and how these losses have had an impact on the nation's labor market.

Proposition 49, which voters passed in 2002, guaranteed more than a three-fold increase in state funding for after school programs, although rollout was dependent on the state budget meeting specific conditions. In 2006-07, the budget met those conditions and the legislation implementing the proposition was passed. Subsequently, an additional $550…

Benitez-Silva, Hugo; Heiland, Frank – Journal of Policy Analysis and Management, 2007
The labor supply and benefit claiming incentives provided by the early retirement rules of the Social Security Old Age benefits program are of growing importance as the Normal Retirement Age (NRA) increases to 67, the labor force participation of Older Americans rises, and a variety of reforms to the Social Security system are considered. Any…

Haider, Steven J.; Loughran, David S. – Journal of Human Resources, 2008
Despite numerous empirical studies, there is surprisingly little agreement about whether the Social Security earnings test affects male labor supply. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive analysis of the labor supply effects of the earnings test using longitudinal administrative earnings data and more commonly used survey data. We find that…

Donni, Olivier; Moreau, Nicolas – Journal of Human Resources, 2007
In Chiappori's (1988) collective model of labor supply, hours of work are supposed flexible. In many countries, however, male labor supply does not vary much. In that case, the husband's labor supply is no longer informative about the household decision process and individual preferences. To identify structural components of the model, additional…

Griffin, Tabatha, Ed.; Beddie, Francesca, Ed. – National Centre for Vocational Education Research (NCVER), 2011
One of the challenges facing Australia is the ageing of the population.

Social scientists have increasingly come to recognize the informal economy as a prominent and permanent structural feature of modern society.

The secular increase over the past several decades in the number of families where both the husband and wife work in the paid labor force, coupled with the surge in labor force participation of single mothers in the 1990s, has heightened policy focus on child care options for working parents; federal and state governments are now major players…
