Child labour and industrialization: Evidence from factory records and the 1851 British census
Abstract Children were an integral part of the workforce during the British Industrial Revolution. The changing patterns of child labour as well as the causes behind its rise and fall have generated much scholarly debate. This study brings in new direct evidence on child labour from children's age certificates and school attendance records from cotton ...

Household Portfolios and Monetary Policy
ABSTRACT We show that expansionary monetary policy is positively (negatively) associated with household portfolio allocation to high‐risk (low‐risk) assets, in line with ‘reaching for yield’ behaviour. Our main findings are based on an analysis of US household‐level data using alternative measures of monetary policy shifts over the period 1999–2007 ...

STADTMITTE UMSTEIGEN? HEINZ KNOBLOCH AND THE ‘ARCHAEOLOGICAL’ TRACES OF BERLIN'S GHOST STATIONS
ABSTRACT In 1982, the East German journalist Heinz Knobloch published a volume entitled Stadtmitte umsteigen. Its title was provocative: since the construction of the Berlin Wall, it had not been possible to change trains at Stadtmitte in East Berlin, as one of the two lines functioned only as a transit route between the north and south of West Berlin.

Note on a Schurer-Stancu-type operator [PDF]
The aim of this paper is to introduce a class of operators of Schurer-Stancu-type with the property that the test functions e0 and e1 are reproduced. Also, in our approach, a theorem of error approximation and a Voronovskaja-type theorem for this operators are obtained. Finally, we study the convergence of the iterates for our new class of operators.
