DESCRIPTION:Alexander Monge-Naranjo (European University Institute)\, “Geog
 raphy and Social Mobility in Developing Countries”\, Behavior\, Institutio
 ns\, and Development Seminar\, October 10\, 2024\, 11:00–12:30\, room Audi
 torium 4.\n\nWe collect a sample of 23 million parents-children matched pa
 irs across 76 developing countries and 13\,000 sub-national regions to exp
 lore the geography of intergenerational educational mobility in developing
  countries. First\, we document large within-country variation in the degr
 ee of intergenerational mobility in educational attainment. Within-country
  variation accounts for more than 30% of the global variation in upward ed
 ucational mobility observed across sub-national regions. Second\, we uncov
 er a strong positive relationship between intergenerational upward mobilit
 y in education and the local average educational attainment of older cohor
 ts living in each region\, as well as a strong negative relationship betwe
 en upward mobility and inequality of education of these older cohorts. Thi
 rd\, for a sub-sample of countries with available data\, we examine the so
 urces of the within-country variation in upward mobility rates. Leveraging
  on children who migrate at different ages\, we estimate that causal place
  effects explain most of the large spatial variation in mobility within co
 untries while selection plays a minor role. The findings suggest a presenc
 e of substantial internal barriers that prohibits families to move to oppo
 rtunities. We propose a simple quantitative model to assess the overall co
 st of these barriers.”
