  • Secretary General Report 2017 Final
    Royal Economic Society Secretary-General's Report 2017 The last year has been very eventful for the Society, with important decisions being made about the nature of RES administrative support while continuing to maintain a wide range of activities. Although this report concentrates primarily on the past year, I will also take the opportunity to make a few remarks about plans for the remainder of 2017 and beyond. I would like to start by thanking some of the many people who have contributed a great deal to the work of the Society. Last year I noted that Mark Robson would step down as Honorary Treasurer at the end of June 2016 after eight years of great service to the Society. Sue Holloway has taken over from Mark as Honorary Treasurer and has quickly become embedded in the Society's work. As also noted last year, Charlie Bean completed his term as Past President and a member of the Executive Committee at the 2016 AGM. I would like to thank Charlie and Mark again and to note that we are delighted that both have accepted invitations, endorsed by both the Council and the Executive Committee, to be Vice Presidents of the Society. The new presidential 'triumvirate', approved at last year's AGM, has now been working for a year, with Andrew Chesher as President with John Moore as Past-President and Peter Neary as President-Elect. The Society has benefited from the active involvement of all three during the year, and this has been especially helpful in a period when important decisions were taken about the most appropriate administrative structure for the RES moving forward.

What is the Development Objective (or main objective) of this Grant? The objective of this proposal is to assess whether exposing low educated married women who do not participate in the labor force and their husbands/partners to an educational entertainment (or “edutainment”) program can change individual preferences, perception of social norms, and ultimately behaviors related to women’s participation in the labor market. The edutainment program will promote a positive image of working women as well as of husbands that share responsibilities for household chores with their working wives in an entertaining format that is relatable at an emotional level. This will be accompanied by behavioral nudges with the goal of providing psychological tools to thrive through the journey of looking for a job. By studying the interaction between these two interventions, the project will contribute to the emerging literature linking aspirations, agency, and pathways. The objective of this proposal builds on the findings of a series of analytical pieces delivered by the Poverty and Equity GP over the past 4 FYs. Inequality has increased in Mauritius over the past decade and this has held back progress in poverty reduction.

  • A Cross-Cultural Analysis for Africa∗
    Violence Against Women: A Cross-cultural Analysis for Africa∗ Alberto Alesinay Benedetta Brioschiz Eliana La Ferrarax This draft: November 2018 Abstract Using a new dataset, we investigate what explains violence against women in Africa. We focus on cultural factors arising from pre-colonial customs and show that these factors determined social norms about gender roles, family structures and intra-family violence, which per- sisted even when the initial conditions change. A first set of ancestral characteristics relates to women's economic role: ethnic groups where women participated less in production (e.g., due to plough agriculture, husbandry or fishing) have higher levels of violence against women to- day, and more acceptance of it. A second set of ancestral characteristics pertains to marriage patterns and living arrangements. Endogamy and virilocality are strongly positively associated with both the level and the acceptance of domestic violence. Our analysis sheds light on the origin, and long term persistence, of gender norms conducive to gender based violence. ∗We thank James Fenske, Andreas Kotsadam and Ana Tur-Prats for helpful comments. Viola Corradini, Awa Ambra Seck, Igor Cerasa and Jack Melbourne provided excellent re- search assistance.

In addition to being a violation of women's human rights, intimate partner violence (IPV) is a public health problem with economic and social costs.
