Circular And Temporary Migration Regimes And Their Implications For Family, Piyasiri Wickramasekara
Circular And Temporary Migration Regimes And Their Implications For Family, Piyasiri Wickramasekara
PIYASIRI WICKRAMASEKARA
he focus on migrant workers in discussions of international migration has tended to detract attention from the role of migrant families. There is consensus that family unification is important for migrants because it helps to promote their effective integration in host countries. Further family fragmentation has adverse impacts on all family members, and there is considerable research to show that the social cost of migration on families left behind, especially children, can be high. Different migration regimes and policies have different implications for the unity and integrity of migrant families. This paper considers the implications of circular migration regimes (which …
Child Feeding Practices Of Head Start Parents And Safeguarding The Oral Health Of Very Young Children, Elizabeth T. Powers
Child Feeding Practices Of Head Start Parents And Safeguarding The Oral Health Of Very Young Children, Elizabeth T. Powers
Elizabeth T Powers
Dentists serving children in a Head Start program attributed dental problems in preschoolers to parent feeding practices. In particular, parents' use of sippy cups and bottles promotes long exposure of teeth to sugars, causing cavities. This presentation reports the preliminary findings from a survey of feeding practices of parents whose children using a dental clinic. Holding constant child's age and other factors, Head Start parents' feeding practices differ from other parents' in several important respects. While Head Start parents report ending bottle use earlier in the child's life, their intensity of sippy cup use is high, and they more frequently …
Decomposing The Sources Of Earnings Inequality: Assessing The Role Of Reallocation, Julia Ingrid Lane
Decomposing The Sources Of Earnings Inequality: Assessing The Role Of Reallocation, Julia Ingrid Lane
Julia Ingrid Lane
This paper exploits longitudinal employer-employee matched data from the U.S. Census Bureau to investigate the contribution of worker and firm reallocation to changes in earnings inequality within and across industries between 1992 and 2003. We find that factors that cannot be measured using standard cross-sectional data, including the entry and exit of firms and the sorting of workers across firms, are important sources of changes in earnings distributions over time. Our results also suggest that the dynamics driving changes in earnings inequality are heterogeneous across industries.

Coöperaties In België. Profielschets 2005-2010, Wim Van Opstal
Wim Van Opstal
Coöperaties kennen de jongste jaren een groeiende aandacht binnen de academische wereld, het bedrijfsleven, het maatschappelijke middenveld en het beleid. Coöperaties worden tijdens een groeiend aantal studiedagen gewikt en gewogen als mogelijk instrument voor diverse uitdagingen die we vandaag kennen op economisch, sociaal en ecologisch vlak. Cijfers over coöperaties in ons land zijn echter schaars. In deze publicatie presenteren we een profielschets van de coöperatieve vennootschappen in België met daarin enkele kerngegevens die de lezer wegwijs maken in het Belgische coöperatieve landschap. We bestrijken daarmee de periode 2005-2010 en baseren ons hiervoor op administratieve gegevens, afkomstig uit de Balanscentrale van …

When Educators Are The Learners: Private Contracting By Public Schools, Silke Forbes, Nora Gordon
When Educators Are The Learners: Private Contracting By Public Schools, Silke Forbes, Nora Gordon
Nora Gordon
We investigate decision-making and the potential for social learning among school administrators in the market for school reform consulting services. Specifically, we estimate whether public schools are more likely to choose given Comprehensive School Reform service providers if their “peer” schools—defined by common governance or geography—have performed unusually well with those providers in the past. We find strong evidence that schools tend to contract with providers used by other schools in their own districts in the past, regardless of past performance. In addition, our point estimates are consistent with school administrators using information from peers to choose the plans they …
