We estimate the effects of early childhood malaria exposure on education and health at older ages by exploiting variations in malaria exposure risk around birth that resulted from a universal malaria eradication campaign in colonial Taiwan in the early 20th century. We find that malaria exposure...

Industry mean wages in China have exhibited sharply increased dispersion since the early 1990, and the wage pattern has become increasingly similar to the that of developed countries and to two major emerging economies, Russia and Brazil. The upward trend in differences of average wages among...

Industry mean wages in China have exhibited sharply increased dispersion since the early 1990s. Researchers have attributed this rising inequality within the industrial wage structure to: (i) increasingly competitive labour markets leading to better matches between worker pay, worker skills and...

In the early 20th century, the Japanese colonial government initiated an island-wide malaria eradication campaign in Taiwan, resulting in not only a rapid decline in malaria across time but also elimination of disparity across regions. Exploiting variations in malaria deaths caused by the...
