Teen Smoking and Birth Outcomes
Full text linkIn the U.S. teen mothers are more likely to give birth to low birth weight babies than non-teen mothers. There is also substantial evidence that smoking is a risk factor correlated with low birth weight. Low birth weight is a costly outcome in both the short and long term for parents, children, and society at large. This paper examines the causal link between teen age smoking behavior and low birth weight. We use a variety of empirical techniques including fixed effects and a matching estimator to identify the impact of smoking on babies of teen and non-teen mothers. We find that both OLS and matching estimator results yield large impacts of smoking on birth weight for teens and adults. However, when we control for unobservables through a fixed effects model, the impact of smoking on birth weight is diminished and there are relatively small differences in the impact of smoking on birth weight between teens and non-teens.

The Meterials for Imperial Usage and the Forced Labor in the Ming China
Full text linkIn China under the Ming Dynasty, the local administrative expenditure, called ‘kung fei 公費’, was at times borne by the li chia 里甲 as a part of its forced labor duties. This incidence of the kung fei and materials for Imperial usage (shang kung wu liao 上供物料) on the li chang 里長 as a part of his official duties is by some regarded as an established system that was effective throughout the Ming period, but still others challenge this view. The present author also maintains that the li chang and chia shou 甲首 paying the kung fei was not a system dating back to the early years of the Ming. In those times procurement of the shang kung wu liao was not directly tied to the forced labor duties of the li chia. As more of it was levied, the burden was progressively shifted onto the ordinary families in disregard of the original procurement system. As a result the kung fei was borne as a part of either the li chia i 里甲役 or the chün yao i 均徭役.journal articl
