Sibling correlations and intergenerational mobility across immigrant groups
We examine intergenerational income persistence and economic assimilation among immigrant groups, focusing on sibling correlations in permanent earnings. Using Dutch administrative data and a heterogeneous income transmission model, we analyze variations across genders, ethnic backgrounds, and immigrant generations. Our results show that, while sibling correlations in income are similar across groups, the underlying factors differ. Immigrants, es…
Intergenerational mobility in the Netherlands
We reconstruct the genealogical tree of all individuals ever appearing in Dutch municipalities records starting in 1995. Combining microdata from tax authorities with education records we compute a measure of permanent income as well as education. We estimate the degree of intergenerational persistence in education and income in the population and across time, showing that it is higher than what previous estimates would suggest, albeit it appears…
Beyond averages
Europeans are, on average, better educated and live healthier, longer and more prosperous lives today than at any point in the past. However, this view on average achievements obscures large disparities, both within and between European countries. The income of the richest 20 % of households in Europe is on average 5 times higher than that of the poorest 20 %, and up to 8 times higher in some Member States. Most indicators of well-being display a…
Does democracy cause growth? A meta-analysis (of 2000 regressions)
Is unequal uptake of Erasmus mobility really only due to students’ choices? The role of selection into universities and fields of study
Erasmus student mobility is the most recognised element of Erasmus+ and clearly popular with an increase in student uptake from 3,000 in 1987 to over 300,000 today. Recent studies show that students from lower socio-economic backgrounds are less likely to study abroad than better-off students, thereby benefitting less from improved employment opportunities and language competences often associated with mobility. Unequal uptake is generally explai…
