Estimation of an Extended SAM with household production for Spain 1995

Abstract

This paper implements the conceptual framework sketched by Pyatt (1990) to construct an extended Social Accounting Matrix for Spain in 1995 (ESAM-95) to consider, in addition to the market economy, the production of services provided by households through unpaid work. In doing so, the ESAM-95 integrates the accounts related to market activities (ESA accounts) with non-market activities (non-ESA accounts) in a consistent way. Additional classifications are introduced in both ESA and non-ESA accounts in order to disaggregate the institutional accounts by household type and those of production factors by educational level and gender. The extended SAM is useful to calibrate CGE models in which the distribution of time between paid and unpaid work is a relevant variable.Social accounting matrix, use of time, household production,

Structural change and female participation in recent economic growth: a multisectoral analysis for the Spanish economy

“…Additionally, and more importantly, certain limitations in current data and accounting systems affect the nature of our results. That is, the contribution of women to the economy is undervalued because contribution of household work and much family care-mainly supplied without apparent cost by women within households-remain excluded from national economic accounts despite the importance of their inclusion as emphasized by feminist economists such as Waring (1988), Elson (2002), Uriel et al (2005), Carrasco and Serrano (2011), Razavi and Staab (2011) and recently Saunders and Dalziel (2017), among others. Moreover, Elson (2002) highlights the negative feedbacks experienced as productivity falls and the increasing costs that can crop up in private and public sectors, when unpaid care is treated as a free good in limitless supply (cf.…”

Matriz De Contabilidad Social Extendida Ambientalmente Para Analisis Economico De La Region Del Bio Bio

“…Entre éstos se encuentran estudios de redistribución del ingreso (Llop y Manresa, 2004), estrategias de crecimiento en países en desarrollo (Vos y Jong, 2003), evaluación de políticas económicas (Ciaschini y Socci, 2007), entre otros. Además se han desarrollado diversas extensiones al modelo tradicional, como el trabajo de Uriel et al (2005) que considera y cuantifica la producción (no remunerada) de servicios en los hogares, o bien la extensión ambiental de las SAM (Keuning y Timmerman, 1995;Morilla y Llanes, 2004;Xie, 2000). En Chile, existen algunos estudios que abordan la construcción de SAM para el país como García y Castillo (1984), Venegas (1995), y Lagos et al (2003), elaborando SAM para los años 1977, 1 Debe notarse que el artículo de Stone (1954) debe interpretarse en términos de "Input-Output and the National Accounts", según Vanoli (2005).…”

The Unpaid Care Work-Paid Work Connection

“…Once a SAM is constructed, it can be also used as the informational basis of Computable General Equilibrium models (CGE). Recent efforts in constructing gender aware SAMs and CGEs include models for Bangladesh (Fontana and Wood 2000), Zambia (Fontana 2002), Nepal (Fofana, Cockburn and Decaluwé 2005), Pakistan (Siddiqui, 2005) and Spain (Uriel et al 2005).…”
