Rapid population growth in many developing countries has raised concerns regarding food security and household welfare. To understand the consequences of population growth on in the general equilibrium setting, we examine the dynamics of population density and its impacts on household outcomes...

Nach allen demografischen Prognosen wird die produktive Bevölkerung in Deutschland stark sinken. Damit stellt sich für die Landwirtschaft die Frage, wie in der Zukunft eine ausreichende Versorgung mit qualifizierten Kräften gewährleistet werden kann. Vor diesem Hintergrund haben wir Fach-...

Output per worker is lower in poor countries than in rich countries, and relatively more so in the agricultural sector. Sorting of heterogeneous workers can contribute to explain this fact if comparative and absolute advantage are aligned in agriculture, implying that average productivity in...

We examine the generalizability of internally valid estimates of causal effects in a fixed population over time when that population is subject to aggregate shocks. This temporal external validity is shown to depend upon the distribution of the aggregate shocks and the interaction between these...
