| description |
This paper studies the growth effects of
externalities associated with intergenerational health
transmission, health persistence, and women's
occupational constraints-- with particular emphasis on the
role of access to infrastructure. The first part provides a
review of the evidence on these issues. The second and third
parts present an overlapping generations model of endogenous
growth that captures these interactions, and characterize
its properties. The model is then used to perform several
gender-based or gender-related experiments -- a reduction in
the cost of child rearing, improved wage equality in the
market place, and better access to infrastructure. The last
part draws together the implications of the analysis for
promoting the role of women in growth strategies. |
