题目: Home Ownership Rights, Intrahousehold Bargaining, and Educational Investments in China

 

摘要: In this study, we evaluate the impact of a legal reform in 2012 that gave individuals full property rights over pre-marital assets (including housing) on household spending on children’s education. Analysing panel data from CHARLS, we find that when women owned homes prior to marriage, the reform led to greater household expenditures on childrens’ education, in particular for girls.
