Public Work and Private Violence
研究了印度一项鼓励女性参与的大型公共工程（MGNREGA）对亲密伴侣暴力的影响，发现该工程导致更多针对女性的暴力，原因可能是男性为重获婚姻权力而实施的“男性反弹”。
In this paper, we study the effect on intimate partner violence of a large public work programme in India that explicitly encourages female participation (MGNREGA). Based on detailed administrative data, we show that the work programme leads to more violence against women. We show that the effect is caused by female employment, and argue that it can be explained by a ‘male backlash’ mechanism, where husbands exercise violence to regain power within marriage.
