This collection of original essays brings econometric theory to bear on the problem of estimating the labor force participation of women. Five scholars here examine, both theoretically and empirically, the determinants of women's wages in the market, the value of their home time, and the factors that affect their employment. Originally published in 1980. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These paperback editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

WHETHER OR NOT THE IDEA EVER HAD ANY VALIDITY, NO ONE COULD ARGUE PLAUSIBLY AFTER NOVEMBER 6 THAT LABOR IS THE LEADER OR VANGUARD OF THE PEOPLE. BUT THIS MUCH CAN BE SAID: AFL-CIO MEMBERS GAVE THE MONDALE-FERRARO TICKET A BIGGER SLICE OF THEIR VOTE THAN THE WHOLE ELECTORATE GAVE RONALD REAGAN IN HIS SWEEPING VICTORY. A NATIONAL POLL OF AFL-CIO MEMBERS SHOWED 61 PERCENT FOR MONDALE, 39 PERCENT FOR REAGAN. THIS MAY COME AS A SURPRISE TO MANY WHO HEARD ACCOUNTS AFTER THE ELECTION SUGGESTING THAT ORGANIZED LABOR HAD WON BARELY HALF THE VOTES OF ITS MEMBERSHIP. THIS HAPPENED BECAUSE THE TV NETWORKS, WITH THE EXCEPTION OF CBS, POLLED UNION HOUSEHOLDS BUT NOT UNION MEMBERS-AND EVEN IN THE LATTER CASE TEAMSTERS UNION MEMBERS AND OTHERS WHO HAD ENDORSED REAGAN WERE INCLUDED. WHEN THE CBS/NEW YORK TIMES POLL QUERIED UNION MEMBERS, THEY FOUND 57 PERCENT WERE FOR MONDALE, 41 PERCENT FOR REAGAN.

The purpose of this paper is to find out the position of female workers in Islam, and the role of women in building prosperity for themselves, surrounding communities and participating in the nation's economic development. It is undeniable that women in Muslim countries lag behind their counterparts in non-Muslim countries in terms of participation in the workforce. However, a large number of studies show that religion is not the culprit in preventing women from being active in the labor market, but rather the cultural attitude that shapes labor force participation decisions. In the author's view, one way for women to achieve prosperity is to give them the opportunity to work. For women, the goal is to provide opportunities to work not only to increase income but also to manage various social vulnerabilities, especially poverty and domestic violence. Women's access to work also means the opportunity to engage in broader socio-political relations. This means that women can contribute to the development of their environment because they no longer live in the household environment, but have enough time to interact in the public space to transform social capital into economic capital in the form of opportunities to engage in economic activities. However, the effort to convert social capital into economic capital is not easy. There are still unfavourable views on the grounds that women's abilities are not commensurate with men which ultimately limits women from accessing livelihoods. Therefore, it is necessary to find a perspective that places men and women in an equal and fair position, especially in acquiring, utilizing, and developing assets and access to economic resources. It is time for the state to formulate public policies that place women as the main actors and not only as objects or complementary policies. In this paper we conclude that the importance of the role of the government through the integration of formal and Islamic education methods to the rearrangement of the labour market, so that women better understand the market and participatory communities become convinced to support women's labour force participation.The purpose of this paper is to find out the position of female workers in Islam, and the role of women in building prosperity for themselves, surrounding communities and participating in the nation's economic development.

This paper develops a model where a benevolent constitutional planner has the ability to restrict the allocation space of citizens who are heterogeneous in productivity prior to the stochastic determination of a government responsible for structuring the tax system. It finds that limits on cross-sectional dispersion in hours worked can be used as a welfare-enhancing tool to discipline the behavior of elected officials who seek to maximize the objective of their respective constituencies by devising selfishly optimal tax regimes that favor idiosyncratic gains from redistribution over socially suboptimal distortions in the labor wedge. A model calibrated to key moments of the U.S. presidential elections and the Lorenz Curve is consistent with two empirical findings from cross-country data: a positive correlation between maximum workweek limits and skill dispersion, and a negative correlation between minimum wage laws and the proportionality of electoral voting systems.
