摘要

占主导地位的发展政策方法建议妇女就业,理由是这有助于赋予她们权力,而这反过来又被认为有助于提高妇女的福利。然而,关于妇女的就业地位和她们的幸福之间的关系的经验性工作(以不受婚姻暴力的自由为衡量标准)得出了一个模棱两可的结论。基于这种模糊性,本文借鉴了男性和女性的证词以及从北方邦农村收集的数据,分别考察了女性的就业状况和资产状况(通过参与有偿工作和财产所有权来衡量)对配偶暴力的影响。与现有文献不同,我们认为女性的工作地位和暴力是同时决定的,并发现女性从事有偿工作和拥有财产与婚姻暴力的急剧减少有关。

Marital Violence and Women’s Employment and Property Status: Evidence from North Indian Villages
Dominant development policy approaches recommend women’s employment on the grounds that it facilitates their empowerment, which in turn is believed to be instrumental in enhancing women’s well-being. However, empirical work on the relationship between women’s employment status and their well-being as measured by freedom from marital violence yields an ambiguous picture. Motivated by this ambiguity, this paper draws on testimonies of men and women and data gathered from rural Uttar Pradesh, to examine the effect of women’s employment and asset status as measured by their participation in paid work and their ownership of property, respectively, on spousal violence. Unlike the existing literature, we treat women’s work status and violence as simultaneously determined and find that women’s engagement in paid work and ownership of property, are associated with sharp reductions in marital violence.
