Foreign Investment, Corporate Ownership, and Development
Economic development implies that the efficiency of firms in developing countries starts approaching that of firms from advanced economies. Various development policies have been pursued to achieve this convergence. We test for this convergence in two economies that represent alternative models of implementing market-oriented development policies: the Czech Republic and Russia. Using 1992–2000 panel data on virtually all medium and large industri…
How do female entrepreneurs perform? Evidence from three developing regions
Values and female entrepreneurship
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to research the extent to which different types of values influence a woman's decision to become an entrepreneur. Design/methodology/approach The paper constructs a two‐stage model to capture the entrepreneurial decision. In the first stage, life values affect the decision to enter the workforce. In the second stage, work values impact the type of employment sought: entrepreneur vs employee. Findings It is fou…
Job Reallocation in Two Cases of Massive Adjustment in Eastern Europe
Minimum Wages, Globalization and Poverty in Honduras
Returns to Human Capital Under The Communist Wage Grid and During the Transition to a Market Economy
We estimate returns to human capital during communism and the transition using data on 2,284 men in the Czech Republic. We show: (a) extremely low and constant rates of return to education under the communist wage grid and dramatic increases in transition, which do not differ by firm ownership, (b) radical changes in returns to several fields of study and “sheepskin effects” in both regimes, (c) identical wage experience profile in both regimes, …
The effect of minimum wages on actual wages in formal and informal sectors in Costa Rica
Institutional Determinants of Labor Reallocation in Transition
The transition process differed in the countries of the Former Soviet Union (FSU) and those of Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) in terms of reallocation of labor real wage, employment and output adjustment. We sift through the theoretical and empirical literature to find an explanation for these diverging adjustment trajectories and conclude that they can be explained by the fact that the CEE countries adopted social policies that upheld wages at…
The nature of minimum wages and their effectiveness as a wage floor in Costa Rica, 1976–1991
Technical Change and Factor Bias in Polish Industry (1962-1983)
This paper provides improved estimates of technological change and the first estimates of factor bias in Polish industry. The analysis uses newly generated data on Western capital (the factor assumed responsible for technical change), adjusts capital for capacity utilization, and tests for more complex specifications of the production function. The major findings are (1) the trend in technical change was nonincreasing over the period and technolo…
