The Role of Social Networks in Cultural Assimilation

Verdier, Thierry; Zenou, Yves - 2015

We develop a model where, in the first stage, minority individuals have to decide whether or not they want to assimilate to the majority culture while, in the second stage, all individuals (both from the majority and the minority group) embedded in a network have to decide how much effort they...

Oppositional Identities and the Labor Market

Battu, Harminder; Mwale, McDonald; Zenou, Yves - 2005

We develop a model in which non-white individuals are defined with respect to their social environment (family, friends, neighbors) and their attachments to their culture of origin (religion, language), and in which jobs are mainly found through social networks. We find that, depending on how...

Social Norms in Networks

Ushchev, Philip; Zenou, Yves - 2019

Although the linear-in-means model is the workhorse model in empirical work on peer effects, its theoretical properties are understudied. In this study, we develop a social-norm model that provides a microfoundation of the linear-in-means model and investigate its properties. We show that...
