Book Synopsis The Measurement of Household Welfare by : R. W. Blundell
Download or read book The Measurement of Household Welfare written by R. W. Blundell. This book was released on 1994-09-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The measurement of household welfare is one of the most compelling yet demanding areas in economics. To place the analysis of inequality and poverty within an economic framework where individuals are making decisions about current and lifetime incomes and expenditures is a difficult task, made all the more challenging by the complexity of the decision-making process in which households are involved and the variety of constraints they face. This 1994 book examines the conceptual and practical difficulties of making inferences from observed behaviour. It addresses the problems of making comparisons across a range of very different households and discusses how data for such comparisons should be collected. The contributions, from experts from Europe, North America and Australia, have the unifying theme that there is a strong relationship between theoretical concepts from microeconomics and the appropriate use of micro data in evaluating household welfare.

Book Synopsis Intra-household Welfare by : Pierre-André Chiappori
Download or read book Intra-household Welfare written by Pierre-André Chiappori. This book was released on 2014. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this paper we develop an approach to measuring inequality and poverty that recognizes the fact that individuals within households may have both different preferences and differential access to resources. We argue that a measure based on estimates of the sharing rule is inadequate as an approach that seeks to understand how welfare is distributed in the population because it ignores public good and the allocation of time to market work, leisure and household production. We develop a money metric measure of welfare that accounts for public goods (by using personalized prices) household production and for the allocation of time.

Book Synopsis Investigating the Determinants of Household Welfare in Cote D'Ivoire by : Paul Glewwe
Download or read book Investigating the Determinants of Household Welfare in Cote D'Ivoire written by Paul Glewwe. This book was released on 1990. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To predict the effect of economic policies on household welfare, one should first understand which characteristics of households and of the localities in which they live, enable them to raise their welfare levels. This paper outlines a simple procedure for investigating the determinants of household welfare and demonstrates its use with recent data from Cote d'Ivoire. Despite the relative simplicity, much information is obtained from its use on cross-sectional survey data. Results specific to Cote d'Ivoire include : high (low) returns to education in urban (rural) areas; high benefits from cocoa land relative to coffee land; a significant impact on economic welfare from the availability of medical services, and no apparent benefits from agricultural extension services.
