[INEQ Research Seminar, WU] Lindsey Macmillan (UCL) - Inequalities in applications and offers to graduate recruitment programmes, November 11
by Disslbacher, Franziska 31 Oct '24

31 Oct '24

Dear colleagues, We hereby invite you to join our next Economics of Inequality Research Seminar<https://www.wu.ac.at/en/ineq/outreach/ineq-research-seminar> at WU Vienna. Lindsey Macmillan<https://profiles.ucl.ac.uk/48151-lindsey-macmillan> (University College London) will present the paper Inequalities in Applications and Offers to Graduate Recruitment Programs. Date and Time: Monday, November 11; 3.00 p.m. Location: WU Vienna, D3 - D3.0.218<https://campus.wu.ac.at/?q=D3.0.218>. Abstract While previous research has shown that disadvantaged young people are less likely to work in professional occupations than their advantaged peers, even conditional on their education, until now little has been known about the reasons for this - are they applying for professional entry-level roles and not being hired, or are they not applying in the first place? Using unique recruitment data from 17 large employers' graduate programmes, we are able to answer this question for the first time. We find that applicants from lower SEB groups and ethnic minority groups are well represented among the applicant pool, but disproportionately do not receive job offers, even when considering applicants with similar prior attainment and other demographic characteristics applying to similar roles. Around half of the gap in job offers between working class and professional background applicants appears during the application sift and online test phase of the process. The other half of the gap in offers emerges at the face-to-face stages. For ethnic minority groups, the majority of the gap in offer rates emerges at the application sift and online test phase, rather than at the face-to-face stage. Women are typically underrepresented in the applicant pool across entry routes but are more likely to achieve a job offer than otherwise similar men, among those who do apply.

FW: WIC Colloquium, Wed, 13 November, 11:00 am: Kathleen Broussard - Ambivalent ideals and discordant intentions: A cognitive interview study of the fertility desires of sexual and gender minorities
by Simunics, Barbara 29 Oct '24

29 Oct '24

WIC Hybrid Colloquium ***************************** Kathleen Broussard University of South Carolina Ambivalent ideals and discordant intentions: A cognitive interview study of the fertility desires of sexual and gender minorities Wednesday, 13 November 2024 11:00 - 12:00 (CET) (save to your calendar - .ics-file<https://www.oeaw.ac.at/fileadmin/subsites/Institute/VID/ICAL-files/Colloqui…>) The hybrid seminar will be held in person at PSK Building, Georg Coch Platz 2, 1010 Vienna and online via Zoom. Please register here: https://www.oeaw.ac.at/vid/events/wic-colloquium/wic-colloquium-registration <https://www.oeaw.ac.at/vid/events/wic-colloquium/wic-colloquium-registration> Login information for online participation will be sent to all registered participants shortly before the start of the presentation. Abstract: Declining fertility has prompted growing attention to unrealized fertility, when people have fewer children than they desire. This study interrogates the meaning and measurement of unrealized fertility by comparing the goals of straight/cisgender and sexual and gender minorities (SGM), a group that experiences significant barriers to pregnancy and parenthood. Drawing from cognitive interviews with 31 U.S. adults, I analyze participant responses to survey questions about their fertility ideals and intentions, paying particular attention to moments of uncertainty and contradiction and perceived barriers to childbearing. Relative to straight/cisgender participants, SGMs were more often ambivalent in their fertility ideals and, when they desired a(nother) child, were less likely to intend to have one. Findings offer insight into the survey measurement of unrealized fertility; because fertility constraints impact goals (not just outcomes), more comprehensive measurement is needed. About the presenter: Kathleen Broussard is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of South Carolina. Prior to joining the faculty at USC, she received her PhD from the University of Texas at Austin. Her core research agenda describes the social determinants of reproductive health desires, behaviors, and experiences. She employs a diverse set of methodological tools, including surveys, interviews, and content analysis, to understand how social institutions and technologies shape people's preferences for and experiences of contraception, abortion, pregnancy, and parenthood. https://www.oeaw.ac.at/fileadmin/subsites/Institute/VID/PDF/Colloquium/2024… *************************************************************************************************** PLEASE SEE https://www.oeaw.ac.at/vid/events/wic-colloquium FOR OUR UPCOMING AND PREVIOUS COLLOQUIA ***************************************************************************************************

WU Economics Research Seminar, 06.11.2024, 4.30 pm to 6 pm, Francesco Ferlenga (University of Warwick)
by Oberhofer, Harald 29 Oct '24

29 Oct '24

Dear colleagues, The Department of Economics cordially invites you to the WU Economics Research Seminar on Wednesday, November 6th, with Francesco Ferlenga (University of Warwick) on "Immigrant Enfranchisement and Integration: Evidence from Italy" Abstract: We study the consequences of immigrant enfranchisement by exploiting Romania's accession to the EU in 2007, which granted municipal election voting rights to Romanian immigrants in Italy. We conduct an event-study analysis at the municipality-by-year level and reach three key findings. First, we find that the enfranchisement of Romanian immigrants leads to an increase in the likelihood of electing a Romanian-born councilor in municipal elections, with higher increases for municipalities expecting a competitive election. Using an instrumented difference-in-differences approach, we find the increase in representation is driven by enfranchisement of the preexisting population and not by new Romanian arrivals following the accession. Second, we find that social capital among Romanian immigrants increases after 2007, indicating that the effect of enfranchisement extends beyond political representation to integration. However, despite the increase in representation and social capital, we find that immigrant presence increases the likelihood of a right-leaning party victory, raises municipal spending on public security, and lowers spending on social programs. This suggests that natives' backlash against immigrant presence plays a bigger role in determining the winning party than the existence of a newly enfranchised immigrant community. Date: Wednesday, November 6th Time: 4.30 to 6 pm (CET) Location: building D1, first floor, room D1.1.078<https://campus.wu.ac.at/?q=D1.1.078> With best regards, Harald Oberhofer --- Univ.-Prof. Dr. Harald Oberhofer Department of Economics WU Vienna University of Economics and Business Phone: +43/1/31336-4984 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wu.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wu.ac.at> https://www.wu.ac.at/en/economics/people/oberhofer-h Austrian Institute of Economic Research (WIFO) Phone: +43/1/7982601-468 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wifo.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wifo.ac.at> http://www.wifo.ac.at/harald_oberhofer

Trump angekündigten US-Zollerhöhungen Der US-Präsidentschaftskandidat D. Trump hat im Falle seiner Wiederwahl erhebliche Zollerhöhungen auf US-Importe im Allgemeinen und speziell gegen China angekündigt. Solche Maßnahmen könnten das globale Handelssystem weiter destabilisieren und hätten unmittelbare negative Auswirkungen auf die Einkommen in den Exportmärkten wie der EU und China. Die Berechnungen von Robert Stehrer (wiiw) und Oliver Reiter (wiiw) anhand eines multisektoralen Gleichgewichtsmodells zeigen jedoch, dass die Folgen für die USA selbst noch gravierender wären.

Trump has announced significant tariff increases on US imports in general and against China in particular. Such measures could further destabilize the global trading system and would have a direct negative impact on incomes in export markets such as the EU and China. However, calculations by Robert Stehrer (wiiw) and Oliver Reiter (wiiw) based on a multi-sectoral equilibrium model show that the consequences for the US itself would be even more serious.

The core of the analysis is a model-based quantitative assessment of the expected long-term macroeconomic effects of these agreements at sectoral level.
