Women in the Labor Market and Experienced Political Institutions

Ugo antonio Troiano

Economics and Politics, 2025, vol. 37, issue 2, 582-594

Abstract: In this paper, I first present a novel finding: women who have experienced democratic institutions during their impressionable years are more likely to participate in the labor market, while controlling for factors such as country, cohort, language and various other confounding factors. I then provide evidence suggesting that discriminatory attitudes may serve as a channel for this phenomenon. Other explanations receive less support from the data.
