This paper examines the nonmarket interactions among migrants in the urban labor market of Bangkok, Thailand. We test whether
the population size and the labor-market performance of previous migrants have externalities to new migrants who have moved
from the same province of origin. Our empirical results, which control origin fixed effects, time fixed effects, and origin-
and year-specific correlated shocks, show that (1) the relative population size of previous migrants in the market decreases
the employment probability of new migrants (substitution effect), (2) the employment probability of previous migrants increases
that of new migrants (positive externalities), and (3) when the employment probability of previous migrants is high, however,
the scale effect becomes positive, which demonstrates a threshold in the informational scale economies. The results imply
that positive informational scale effect dominates negative substitution effect when the efficiency of previous migrants is
sufficiently high in the destination labor market.

Since the end of 1990s, approximately 160 million Chinese rural workers migrated to cities for work. Because of restrictions on migrant access to local health and education systems, many rural children are left behind in home villages to grow up without parental care. This article examines how exposure to cumulative parental migration affects children’s health and education outcomes. Using the Rural-Urban Migration Survey in China (RUMiC) data, we measure the share of children’s lifetime during which parents were away from home. We instrument this measure of parental absence with weather changes in their home villages when parents were aged 16–25, when they were most likely to initiate migration. Results show a sizable adverse effect of exposure to parental migration on the health and education outcomes of children: in particular, boys. We also find that the use of the contemporaneous measure for parental migration in previous studies is likely to underestimate the effect of exposure to parental migration on children’s outcomes. 相似文献

This article is an empirical examination of the government failure theory using a cross-country data set. The government failure
theory is represented in the major existing literature as providing a sound explanatory basis for an interesting characteristic
of the nonprofit sector, that is, there is a large variability in nonprofit sector size from one place to another. Salamon
et al. (Social origins of civil society: An overview, Working Papers of the Johns Hopkins Comparative Nonprofit Sector Project,
2000) examined this theory using the Johns Hopkins Comparative Nonprofit Sector Project (CNP) data set, and consequently rejected
the government failure theory. However, by applying the panel analysis approach to the CNP data set, this article shows that
the government failure theory should not have been so easily rejected. 相似文献

Previous research on student involvement suggested that business and engineering students manifest lowest rates of voluntary action. Similarly, it was thought that social science students are the most involved in voluntary action, with students of natural sciences and humanities in the middle. However, there were very few studies that empirically compared these assertions. Furthermore, these assertions were not investigated from cross-cultural perspectives. Based on a study of students in 12 countries (N = 6,570), we found that even when controlling for background variables, social science students are actually less engaged in voluntary action than other students. Engineering students are higher than expected on voluntary action while students of humanities are the most involved in voluntary action. When studying these differences in the 12 selected countries, local cultures and norms form different sets of findings that suggest that there is no universal trend in choice of academic field and voluntary action. 相似文献

The supply of formal childcare has expanded in many developed countries. However, there is ambiguity in the theory whether
the entry of care providers increases consumers’ surplus in a market with differentiated services, such as childcare. This
study empirically investigates how perceived search costs and parental life satisfaction change when actual childcare availability
is altered. It exploits the new panel data from Australia on the number of center-based childcare places per 100 children
within a household’s residential area. The results show that an increase in the availability of center-based childcare is
associated with a decrease in perceived difficulty in finding ‘good quality’ childcare, as well as an increase in mothers’
satisfaction with the amount of free time available. These findings imply that the local availability of center-based childcare
has enhanced the subjective well-being of parents. 相似文献

With their “Beyond Nonprofits: Re-conceptualizing the Third Sector”, Salamon and Sokolowski have made an important contribution to the ongoing debate on how to define the third sector. This Voluntas symposium brings together the comments of five leading scholars both supportive and critical of the new definition. The comments are based on a debate held at the conference of the International Society for Third Sector Research, in Stockholm in 2016. 相似文献

Summary A population dynamic model of Batesian mimicry, in which populations of both model and mimetic species were considered, was
analyzed. The probability of a predator catching prey on each encouter was assumed to depend on the frequency of the mimic.
The change in population size of each species was considered to have two components, growth at the intrinsic growth rate and
carrying capacity, and reduction by predation. For simplicity in the analyses, three assumptions were made concerning the
carrying capacities of each population: (1) with no density effects on the mimic population growth rate; (2) with no density
effects on the model species; and (3) with density effects on both species. The first and second cases were solved analytically,
whereas the last was, for the most part, investigated numerically. Under assumption (1), two stable equilibria are possible,
in which both species either coexist or go to extinction. Under assumption (2), there are also two stable equilibria possible,
in which either only the mimic persists or both go to extinction. These results explain the field records of butterflies (Pachliopta aristolochiae and its mimicPapilio polytes) in the Ryukyu Islands, Japan. 相似文献
