在大多数高收入经合组织国家,生育率和人均收入现在正相关。低生育率和性别工资差距在日本持续存在。本文提出了一个模型,其中儿童保育价格的内生增长和资本配置中的性别平等在人均收入增长和女性相对工资上升对生育率的影响中发挥了重要作用。结果表明,生育率与人均收入之间的正相关关系并不强:如果育儿生产率足够高,总体生育率会随着女性相对工资的上升而上升;如果男性工作的资本相对于女性增加,那么女性的相对工资可能不会随着人均收入的增加而增加。
Fertility and per capita income are now positively associated across most high income OECD countries. Low fertility and a gender wage gap persist in Japan. This paper presents a model where endogenous increases in the price of child-care and gender equity in the allocation of capital play important roles in the effect of per capita income growth and rising female relative wages on fertility. Results indicate that a positive relationship between fertility and per capita income is not robust: overall fertility rises with female relative wages if child-care productivity is sufficiently high; female relative wages may not rise with per capita income if men work with increasing capital relative to women.
