“…The MIMIC model was introduced to econometrics by Goldberger (1972); see also Aigner et al (1984) and Gertler (1988). The model consists of two sets of equations: By substituting (2) into (1), one derives a model which is no longer a function of the latent variable ξ.…”

The analysis is conducted on a cross-section of 85 economies; I focus on international financial linkages that may have both allowed the crisis to spread across economies, and/or provided insurance. The model of the cross-economy incidence of the crisis combines

“…The examples of such variables are human capital, the productivity of a worker, consumer satisfaction or as in this study, illegal activity. The "causes" may be viewed as the instruments in IV-approach (Goldberger (1972) and Angrist et al (1996)). 8 The special issue of the Journal of Econometrics (1983) is devoted to this approach.…”

Do the catholic and protestant countries differ by their tax morale?

The paper presents a model where illegal shadow production arises from tax evasion. The equilibrium size of the shadow production is determined by consumer moral valuations, possibly affected by the inherited culture or religion. The implications of the model are tested in the OECD data on groups of countries for two regimes 1979-1992 and 1992-2003. Evidence is found on a link between tax morale and shadow markets. No evidence, however, is found to support the view that the tax morale differs between the Catholic South and Protestant North in Europe. The results suggest that the earlier studies have overestimated the size of the shadow economies and that there has been a regime switch in the evolution of the shadow economies during the early 1990s.JEL Classification: C23, D43, H26, L13

“…I do know that correspondence was begun by Art, one of many instances of his inquisitive outreach beyond the bounds of economics. That correspondence led to productive work, in both economic and sociological methods, culminating in the wonderful conference and edited volume with Dudley, Structural Equation Models in the Social Sciences (Goldberger & Duncan 1973), a later book with Dennis Aigner (Aigner & Goldberger 1977), Art's punfully titled 1971 paper "Economics and Psychometrics: a Survey of Communalities" (Goldberger 1971), and his masterful paper "Structural Equation Methods in the Social Sciences" (Goldberger 1972). One might summarize the theme of the latter piece with a line attributed to Einstein, "The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources."…”

A Life in Sociology

There has lately been a slew of movies-biopics-that depict the lives of immensely talented individuals-the Indian mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan, the cryptographer and computing pioneer Alan Turing, the physicist extraordinaire Stephen Hawking, and the southern-born novelist Thomas Wolfe, among others. As I think about my life and accomplishments, I know full well that they are way out of my league. All the same, I offer the following autobiographical account. FAMILY ORIGINSMy first and most important teachers were Sylvia, Julius, and Michael Hauser. Sylvia, my mother, had high standards, and she constantly feared I would drop out of school and never return. Her fears were justified. I grew to share them, so I stayed in school decade after decade. My mother also encouraged me to read the work of the young Christopher Jencks and Richard Easterlin. She had exceptionally good taste. My father, Julius Hauser, taught me how to look at the world from the outside in, and what and who not to believe. He encouraged me to read the muckrakers-Lincoln Steffens, Ida Tarbell, and Upton Sinclair-and from dinner-table conversations, I learned how the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) really worked.My older brother, Mike, whose career encompassed both experimental high-energy particle physics and observational astrophysics, taught me that someone was always smarter, tougher, faster, harder-working, and thinner than me, and he set an example of a life in science that few can equal.My memories of childhood are few, fragmentary, and, often, unhappy. I often broke lamps or other items when my family visited the homes of relatives. Bigger kids stole or broke my balsawood gliders. I wore bifocals by the time I was seven. I transitioned from being the skinny kid who always was last picked to play touch football or basketball to the chubby kid who was always last picked. On the bright side, my brother and I built a Christmas tree of tinker toys when our parents refused to buy one, and Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry was a favorite place to visit.Two male role models dominated the family horizon. Dad was an ABD in organic chemistry from the University of Chicago and moved the family from Chicago to Washington, DC, in 1949 because he had no opportunity for advancement in the FDA's Chicago branch office. He became the house expert on regulatory law within the FDA. In that role, he wrote the first draft of the 1962 Kefauver-Harris Amendments to the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, which required proof of efficacy and safety, required disclosure of side effects, and concurrently introduced the first legislation mandating informed consent of participants in clinical trials. According to the Harvard political scientist and historian Daniel Carpenter, he was also responsible for the contemporary design of clinical drug trials.Dad's brother was the sociologist, demographer, and social statistician Philip M. Hauser, whose career wandered freely and frequently between federal service and a professorship at the University of Chic...
