The shadow value of migrant remittances, income and inequality in a household‐farm economy
研究发现移民汇款通过缓解家庭农场生产的信贷和风险约束，间接刺激了农场收入，但其影子价值高且分布不均，强化了汇款对收入分配的均衡化直接效应。
This article offers econometric evidence that income remittances sent home by family migrants stimulate household‐farm incomes indirectly by relieving credit and risk constraints on household‐farm production. A high but unequally distributed shadow value of migrant remittances appears to reinforce an equalising direct effect of remittances on the income distribution across a sample of household‐farms in rural Mexico.
