This paper explores the implications of gender-based income taxation in a noncooperative model of household behavior …. In a first step, we show how gender-based taxes can act as Pigou taxes and correct the externality induced by a non …-raising purpose. In this case, the optimal structure of differential taxation by gender is partly determined by a Ramsey-type inverse …

Most econometric models of intrahousehold behavior assume that household decision-making is efficient, i.e., utility realizations lie on the Pareto frontier. In this paper we investigate this claim by adding a number of participation constraints to the household allocation problem. Short-run...

This paper investigates how families make decisions about the education of juveniles. The decision problem is analyzed in three variations: a 'decentralized' scheme, in which the parents control the purse-strings, but the children dispose of their time as they see fit; a 'hierarchical' scheme,...
