The price of gold : dowry and death in India
Bhalotra, Sonia R.; Chakravarty, Abhishek; Gulesci, Selim - 2016
Dowry is often adduced as an explanation of son preference in India, but there is little evidence that dowry motivates son-preferring behaviours. On the premise that gold is an integral part of dowry, we use variation in gold prices to investigate this. First, we exploit a sharp unexpected rise...
