| description |
The article assesses the impact of
Argentina's main social policy response to the severe
economic crisis of 2002. The program was intended to provide
direct income support for families with dependent sand whose
head had become unemployed because of the crisis. Counter
factual comparisons are based on a matched subset of
applicants not yet receiving program assistance. Panel data
spanning the crisis are also used. The program reduced
aggregate unemployment, though it attracted as many people
into the workforce from inactivity as it did people who
otherwise would have been unemployed. Although there was
substantial leakage to formally ineligible families and
incomplete coverage of those who were eligible, the program
did partially compensate many losers from the crisis and
reduced extreme poverty. |
