Labor Market Experience in a "Pseudo-Home" Country: Turkish Immigrants in Northern Cyprus
Besim, Mustafa; Ekici, Tufan; Guven-Lisaniler, Fatma (2015-07-03)
In this study we analyze the labor market experiences of Turkish immigrants in Northern Cyprus. Northern Cyprus presents a unique example for Turkish migrants, as many traditional obstacles (language barrier, cultural and ethnic differences and non-transferability of human capital) for immigrant laborers are not applicable since Turkish immigrants have ethnic and cultural similarities to native citizens and Turkey is considered the motherland of Northern Cyprus. Nonetheless, significant differences between ...

Labor-Force Participation of Married Women in Turkey: A Study of the Added-Worker Effect and the Discouraged-Worker Effect
Karaoglan, Deniz; ÖKTEN HASKER, ÇAĞLA (2015-01-01)

We construct six two-year pseudopanels based on the previous year's labor market outcomes using nationally representative Turkish Household Labor Force Surveys from 2005 to 2010. We find that women whose husbands involuntarily transition from employment to unemployment are more likely to participate in the labor force. We pool the six-year ...
Labor informality in Mexico since the 1980s: the reinforced poverty-gender nexus
Şahin, Büşra.; Topal Yılmaz, Aylin; Department of Latin and North American Studies (2019)

The prevalence of labor informality has been considered as one of the major obstacles in the development process for developing economies due to its linkages with poverty and inequality. Furthermore, the concept manifests itself in different forms that are determined by s...
