Women's Labor Participation Rates in the Kingdom of Castilla in the Eighteenth Century
利用18世纪中期卡斯蒂利亚王国最全面的普查数据，详细描述了该地区男性和女性从事有偿工作的数量及工作类型，分析了女性劳动参与率的影响因素。
Labor participation rates are key to understanding the economic development of a given region, yet many historical studies tend to undervalue women's labor activity. Using detailed records from the mid-eighteenth century Ensenada Cadaster (the most comprehensive census of the Kingdom of Castilla during this period), this study provides a detailed picture of the number of men and women engaged in paid work and the types of work they were doing in the region during this period. The data include information on marital status, age, number of children, and occupation, allowing for an in-depth analysis of the weight of women's labor market participation at the time.
