Decentralizing the Chilean miracle: regional intergenerational mobility in a developing country
利用智利行政数据，按区域估算代际流动性，发现矿业和农业地区向上流动性差异显著，且作为单一制国家，制度差异外的因素影响更大。
We estimate spatially disaggregated measures of intergenerational mobility in Chile through an administrative dataset linking children’s and their parents’ earnings from the formal private labour sector. We report remarkable heterogeneity as we find higher and lower upward mobility in mining and agricultural regions, respectively, corroborating previous findings by Connolly et al. in 2019 with the distinction that Chile is a unitary state, implying that factors other than institutional differences shape mobility.
