SUMMARY:Parental Leave: Economic Incentives and Cultural Change
DESCRIPTION:On Friday\, April 18\, at 1 PM in Posvar 5108\, Raquel Fernández will present\, “Parental Leave: Economic Incentives and Cultural Change.” This talk will explore Sweden’s 2002 parental leave reform\, which aimed to encourage more equal gendered leave distribution. Drawing on quantitative household models and Swedish administrative registers\, Fernández will evaluate the role of changing social norms\, wage-related factors\, and alternative policies to increase men’s share of parental leave. \nRaquel Fernández is a Professor of Economics at New York University and at the University of Oslo in Norway. She is a Research Fellow of CEPR (Centre for Economic Policy\, London)\, where she has been co-director of the Public Policy Program (1999-2007)\, a Research Associate of NBER (National Bureau of Economic Research)\, and a Research Fellow of IZA. Her research focuses on gender economics\, development economics\, economic inequality\, and sovereign debt.
