Families in Macroeconomics (2016, unknown): “, 2012 for a detailed analysis of this point). m See Cho and Rogerson (1988) for an early contribution on the implications of this type of fixed cost of participation for the elasticity of labor supply.”
Determinants of Income Mobility and Household Poverty Dynamics in South Africa (2005, background): “33 The literature analysing models with two equilibria [for example, Galor and Weil, 2000; Lagerlöf, 2002] also refer to poverty traps where small changes to initial conditions will not allow any improvement in the economic situation as households fall back to the bad equilibrium.”
The Galor–Weil model revisited: A quantitative exercise (2005, background): “(This formulation is borrowed from Lagerlöf 2003a.) Applying the expression defining optimal education in (10) to the para- metric form in (16), we can derive optimal et+1 as e(gt+1) = max n 0, p gt+1τ(1− ρ)− ρτ o .”
Gender and Economic Growth in Uganda: Unleashing the Power of Women (2005, background): “Female education has also been shown to promote the quantity and quality of education of their children, which raises future human capital and boosts economic growth (Lagerlöf 2003).”

Accounting for Fertility Decline During the Transition to Growth (2004, background): “Even though the overall pattern is repeated, there are large cross-country variations in the timing and speed of the demographic transition.”
The Demographic Transition and the Emergence of Sustained Economic Growth (2005, background): “16Similarly, Lagerloef (2003b) argues that the process of development permitted a gradual improvement in the relative level of female education, raising the opportunity cost of children and initiating a fertility decline and a transition to sustained economic growth.”
Aggregate Costs of Gender Gaps in the Labor Market: A Quantitative Estimate (2016, unknown): “These theories are, in most cases, based on the fertility and children's human capital channels, as in Galor and Weil (1996), and Lagerlöf (2003).7 Galor and Weil (1996), for example, argue that an increase in women's relative wage increases the cost of raising children, which lowers population…”
Supplemental Notes to "Demographic transition and industrial revolution: A macroeconomic investigation" (2009, methodology): “12 Lagerlof (2003) performs a quantitative test of this model.”
Social Class and the Spirit of Capitalism (2004, background): “Alternative explanations are proposed by Lizzeri and Persico (2004), where franchise extension is driven by the need for public services, and by Galor and Moav (2001), where redistribution is in the interest of capitalists due to an increased role of human capital.”
Would empowering women initiate the demographic transition in least-developed countries? (2010, unknown): “V̂t+1 ≥ θt (ĉt ) σ 2 (1 + gt) σ−1 (1 − ǫ)βn t a 2 (êft + ê m t ) + φw f t ĥ f t ] (26) êft , ê m t ≥ 0 (27) nt ≤ p f t /φ (28)”
Does female empowerment promote economic development? (2011, unknown): “16 The role of gender equality for economic growth is also analyzed in Galor and Weil (1996), Lagerlöf (2003), and de la Croix and Vander Donckt (2010), but these papers do not analyze the effects of transfers, and instead focus on the link between gender equality and demographic change.”
