Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This article examines the relationship between illegal child labor and levels of school attendance. I study the effects of government transparency, government expenditure on education, and gender parity on both child labor and school attendance. Introduction. The United Nations dedicated 1979 as "The Year of the Child," prompting an increase in international concern regarding children's rights (Bessell, 1999 pp.360). Since then, important international agreements, including the seminal UN Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC), enacted in 1990, have provided the impetus for further study on the issue by international organizations and academics alike (UNCRC, 1990). Most international laws dealing with children focus, in part, on child labor. As such, many studies have been conducted and a great deal of literature has been written on child labor. Fundamental to past research and literature has been examining the causal effects of social and political variables on the issue of child labor (Bessell, 1999; Canagarajah and Nielsen, 2001; Diller and Levy, 1997, Glut, 1995; Human Rights Watch, 1996; Human Rights Watch 2003). It is these variables I wish to study further, specifically examining their effect on the relationship between child labor and education. In examining the relationship between labor and education, I focus on the effect of three specific causal variables on this relationship: gender parity, government transparency, and government expenditure on education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Compulsory School Attendance and Child Labor: A Study of the Historical Development of Regulations Compelling Attendance and Limiting the Labor of Children in a Selected Group of States The limits and purposes of this study forbid the examination of the laws relative to compulsory education and the restriction of the labor of children in all the states. It seems impracti cable even to take a sampling of such laws and administrative policies characterizing the principal geographic regions of the Union. The section dealing with the colonial period is limited to a few of the more populous colonies of the North, colonies in which the education of the children of common folk was especially stressed. Industrial conditions of great interest prevailed in the South, and the lives of working children were directed by laws of much the same character as those pre veiling at the time in England.3 Here, however, the Puritan zeal for literary education among the poor had no counter part. Industrial life began to be modified by negro slavery before distinctively provincial ideals could develop. State educational systems did not thrive as in the North, and the education of the masses did not become a vital problem until after the Civil War.

Download or read book Child Labor School Attendance and Indigenous Households Evidence from Mexico written by Rosangela Bando, Harry Anthony Patrinos, Rosangela Bando G., Luis Felipe López-Calva and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2005 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: "The authors use panel data for Mexico for 1997 to 1999 to test several assumptions regarding the impact of a conditional cash transfer program on child labor, emphasizing the differential impact on indigenous households. Using data from the conditional cash transfer program in Mexico--PROGRESA (OPORTUNIDADES)--they investigate the interaction between child labor and indigenous households. While indigenous children had a greater probability of working in 1997, this probability is reversed after treatment in the program. Indigenous children also had lower school attainment compared with Spanish-speaking or bilingual children. After the program, school attainment among indigenous children increased, reducing the gap. This paper--a product of the Education Sector Unit, Latin America and the Caribbean Region--is part of a larger effort in the region to evaluate human development programs"--World Bank web site.
Download or read book Child Labor in the Developing World written by Alberto Posso and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-20 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides new evidence of the theoretical and empirical causes and consequences of child labor. In so doing, the chapters provide a unique set of policy prescriptions that are applicable to both the developing countries that make up the case studies of the volume, as well as other countries more broadly. The volume is constructed to inform policy with rigorous analysis. However, unlike most academic studies, the language and flavour of the volume is largely non-technical, while the policy recommendations are practical. The volume is made up of three sections. The first section builds on the existing literature and provides new theoretical insights into child labor. Section 2 provides empirical evidence from both quantitative and qualitative case studies on child labor from across Asia, Africa and Latin America. This section provides information from studies conducted in Brazil, Cameroon, the Dominican Republic, India and Vietnam. Section 3 provides policy recommendations.

Book excerpt: to establish impact, attributing observed changes in welfare to the intervention, while identifying key factors of success. Impact evaluations are aimed at providing feedback to help improve the design of programs and policies. They also provide greater accountability and a tool for dynamic learning, allowing policymakers to improve ongoing programs and ultimately better allocate funds across programs. Such a causal analysis is essential for understanding the relative role of alternative interventions in reducing poverty. The papers in this section again adopt a variety of techniques. The rst two impact evaluation studies employ propensity score matching to establish, ex-post, a valid control group to assess the impact on child schooling outcomes among b- e ciaries of various interventions in Kenya and Ethiopia. The third chapter c- ries out an ex-ante evaluation of alternative cash transfer programs on child school attendance in Uruguay. The nal paper further carries out in-depth macro-modeling and micro-regression analysis to simulate the impacts of the food crisis and various policy responses, including food subsidies and cash transfers, on various dimensions of child poverty in Mali. Though using different approaches, the studies are gen- ally in agreement concerning the positive impact of the cash transfer program on child schooling and labor market outcomes. The studies from Kenya and Uruguay both nd that the schooling interventions are progressive.
