Women's employment, income and divorce in West Germany : a causal approach
Brüggmann, Daniel - In: Journal for labour market research 54 (2020) 1/5, pp. 1-22
In this paper, I assess the employment and income effect of divorce for women in West Germany between 2000 and 2005. With newly available administrative data that allows me to adopt a causal approach, I find strong negative employment effects with respect to marginal employment and strong...

A computationally practical simulation estimation algorithm for dynamic panel data models with unobserved endogenous state variables
Keane, Michael P.; Sauer, Robert M. - 2009
This paper develops a simulation estimation algorithm that is particularly useful for estimating dynamic panel data models with unobserved endogenous state variables. The new approach can easily deal with the commonly encountered and widely discussed "initial conditions problem," as well as the...

Income and democracy: a comment on Acemoglu, Johnson, Robinson, and Yared (2008)
Gundlach, Erich; Paldam, Martin - 2008
Acemoglu, Johnson, Robinson, and Yared (2008) demonstrate that estimation of the standard adjustment model with country-fixed and time-fixed effects removes the statistical significance of income as a causal factor of democracy. We argue that their empirical approach must produce insignificant...

The regression calculus of economic convergence and the contribution of the institutional factor
Iancu, Aurel; Pecican, Eugen Ștefan; Olteanu, Dan - 2010
This working paper aims to stress the role of the institutional capital and its components, as primary factors, in economic results at the national level, using adequate measurement indicators and econometric models. For this purpose, we analysed the following aspects: the definition of...
