• Economic Growth and the Development of Real Wages: Swedish Construction Workers' Wages in Comparative Perspective, 1831-1900 AI翻译
  作者：Uppsala University; Uppsala University; Lund University
  摘要：Using new and uniquely detailed data, we examine how construction workers' wages in Sweden developed between 1831 and 1900. Wages grew rapidly from the 1850s, and comparisons with Northwestern Europe show that Swedish workers benefited more from growth than workers elsewhere. Globalization forces, most notably overseas migration, in combination with flexible and well-integrated labor markets-signified by strong regional convergence, falling skill differentials, and small urban-rural wage gaps-...

The finding contrasts recent influential works emphasizing the beneficial role of early transition. Using data from a large number of carbon-dated Neolithic sites throughout the Western agricultural area, we determine approximate transition dates for about 60 countries, 280 m...
• El Sueno Americano? The Generational Progress of Mexican Americans Prior to World War II AI翻译
  作者：University System of Ohio; Xavier University; Baylor University
  摘要：We present new estimates of the outcomes of first-generation Mexicans and their descendants between 1880 and 1940. We find zero convergence of the economic gap between Mexicans and non-Mexican whites across three generations. The great-grandchildren of immigrants also had fewer years of education. Slow convergence is not simply due to an inheritance of poverty; rather, Mexican Americans had worse outcomes conditional on the father's economic status. However, the gap between third-generation Me...
