摘要

在中东和北非，每五次婚姻中至少有一次是近亲结婚（二次或近亲结婚），在世界一些地区，这一比例高于50%。我们发现，土耳其的教育改革将义务教育增加了3年，使妇女不太可能认为近亲结婚是一种可以接受的做法。这项改革降低了女性与表亲或血亲结婚的倾向，并改变了女性对个人自主的偏好，表明受教育程度改变了可能植根于文化的行为和态度。

Education and Consanguineous Marriage

At least one of every five marriages is consanguineous (between couples who are second cousins or closer) in the Middle East and North Africa, and the rate is higher than 50% in some parts of the world. We find that a Turkish education reform that increased mandatory schooling by 3 years made women less likely to find consanguineous marriage an acceptable practice. The reform reduced women’s propensity to marry a first cousin or a blood relative, and it altered women’s preferences in favor of personal autonomy, indicating that educational attainment alters behaviors and attitudes that may be rooted in culture.

期刊介绍： Journal of Human Capital is dedicated to human capital and its expanding economic and social roles in the knowledge economy. Developed in response to the central role human capital plays in determining the production, allocation, and distribution of economic resources and in supporting long-term economic growth, JHC is a forum for theoretical and empirical work on human capital—broadly defined to include education, health, entrepreneurship, and intellectual and social capital—and related public policy analyses. JHC encompasses microeconomic, macroeconomic, and international economic perspectives on the theme of human capital. The journal offers a platform for discussion of topics ranging from education, labor, health, and family economics.
