This paper studies the mechanisms underlying the apparent stability of the income distribution in Taiwan. An original decomposition methodology based on micro-simulation techniques is proposed. Applied to the distribution of income in Taiwan since 1979 it permits isolating the respective impact...

This paper provides a full analysis of the transformation of the female labor market in Taiwan between 1979 and 1994. The authors emphasize the role of education, in relation both to the impressive increase in educational attainment and to its rising return on the labor market.

This survey presents the set of methods available in the literature on selection bias correction, when selection is specified as a multinomial logit model. It contrasts the underlying assumptions made by the different methods and shows results from a set of Monte Carlo experiments. We find that,...
