| Title | The gender wage gap in kyrgyzstan: does the equal rights amendment matter? |
| Summary | Current thesis investigates whether the regulatory changes of 2010-2011 narrowed the gender wage gap in the Kyrgyz Republic. The data is taken from the Life in Kyrgyzstan longitudinal survey. The sample size of the pooled sample includes 9446 people from different regions of the Kyrgyz Republic. Empirical analysis is carried out using the ordinary least square with and without correction for the sample selection and Oaxaca-Blinder mean wage decomposition technique. Results suggest that the equal rights amendment to the Constitution did not gradually narrow the gender wage gap within the estimated period of three years. |
