Bargaining Analyses of Household Decisions In: Women in the Labor Market. CB Lloyd, et al., eds. New York, NY: Columbia University Press, 1979 Cohort(s): Mature Women Publisher: Columbia University Press Keyword(s): Bargaining Model; Fertility; Household Demand; Household Models; Leisure; Marriage Permission to reprint the abstract has not been received from the publisher. The authors apply the bargaining models of household decision-making that were proposed and analyzed in their l977 study, focusing on several differences between these and the neoclassical approach. They show that retaining the received theory does not facilitate the determination of the interrelationships between types of marriage decisions and household demands, but that the bargaining theory does. They find that the bargaining models make possible an expanded set of econometric specifications for marriage, labor supply, and other household decisions and offer the promise of uncovering important elements in an economy-principally, the predominant type of marriage arrangement, its changes over time, and its impact on outcomes of the household decision-making process. Formal comments by Nancy M. Gordon and Orley Ashenfelter follow. |
