Do not sell marriage short: Reply to strober
解释婚姻市场状况如何影响女性劳动力参与，回应Strober的理论与实证批评，并指出基于市场分析的劳动与婚姻理论可能有助于女性权益。
This paper explains why marriage market conditions may affect the participation of women in the labor force. In particular, it is claimed that changes in cohort size affect marriage market conditions and therefore women's labor-force participation. The paper also indicates how a theory of labor and marriage based on market analysis can possibly help women's causes. The paper first addresses theoretical issues raised by Strober. It then responds to her critique of empirical work.
