The power of the economic outlook : an ideational explanation of the distinct pattern of Finnish wage setting within the Nordic context

2022

Industrial relations scholars are paying increasing attention to the role of ideas in explaining shifts in bargaining systems and wage policies. This article contributes to this growing body of literature by conducting a meso-level analysis of the uses and impacts of ideas in wage regulation policy processes in coordinated market economies.

Parenthood and gender inequality : Population-based evidence on the child penalty in Finland

2019

We use population-based data drawn from administrative registers and an event study design centered around the birth of the first child using the specification proposed in Kleven et al. (2019b).

Taxes and social security transfers considerably reduce the child penalty, which also varies by the number of children. peerReviewed
