This question was first posed in the introduction and now a specific answer to it can be given. The answer proposed in this thesis is: they are characterized in terms of temporal relations. The specific temporal system that was adopted in the present work is developed in Reinhart (1986, 2000). However, since the analysis of Russian aspect is given in terms of temporal notions, any system of temporal relations can be challenged to derive the aspectual differences in Russian. A different temporal model whose potential should still be explored with respect to the Russian data is developed in Verkuyl (2001). Verkuyl’s (2001) semantic formalization of tenses is based on te Winkel (1866). The essence of this proposal is to redesign Reichenbach’s model, in particular, its basic setup, without radically changing the conceptual notions. The tense system advocated by Verkuyl is formed on the basis of te Winkel’s three oppositions: present vs. past, synchronous vs. posterior (‘posteriority’) and complete vs. incomplete (‘anteriority’). In this way, the original Reichenbachian 3x3 design is changed into a compositional 2x2x2 set up. Verkuyl (2001) maintains a fundamental distinction between the temporal and atemporal levels of semantic representation. This distinction is equivalent to the one made between predicational aspect, on the one hand, and perspective aspect and tense, on the other. Crucially, Verkuyl argues that the aspectual value of a predicate is determined only once: it remains intact and is independent of any temporal information. This view is also adopted in the present thesis. Tenses are construed as a structured set of operators on the tenseless predication, the denotation of which is called E (akin to Reichenbach’s notion of Event time). In order to accommodate the information expressed by E into the temporal structure in Verkuyl’s system, E is immediately assigned an index i:","PeriodicalId":48110,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Growth","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2018-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84768873","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One economic theory builds on this relationship and argues that rising inequality leads to greater differential fertility between rich and poor. We show that the relationship between income and fertility has flattened between 1980 and 2010 in the US, a time of increasing inequality, as high income families increased their fertility. These facts challenge the standard theory. We propose that marketization of parental time costs can explain the changing relationship between income and fertility. We show this result both theoretically and quantitatively, after disciplining the model on US data. We explore implications of changing differential fertility for aggregate human capital. Additionally, policies, such as the minimum wage, that affect the cost of marketization, have a negative effect on the fertility and labor supply of high income women. We end by discussing the insights of this theory to the economics of marital sorting.","PeriodicalId":48110,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Economic Growth","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.3,"publicationDate":"2018-09-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84412514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
