The welfare measurement is based on Sen (1974)’s welfare index. We consider three types of agricultural public infrastructure, the neutral one, the land-augmenting one, and the labor-augmenting one. The impacts of increased provision of agricultural public infrastructure on urban unemployment and welfare are determined by the interactions among three effects, the “agricultural productivity effect,” “rural labor employment effect,” and “urban expected wage effect.” We also identify the impacts on the skilled-unskilled wage inequality.}, title = {The Impacts of Agricultural Public Infrastructure on Urban Unemployment and Social Welfare : A General Equilibrium Analysis}, year = {2016} }
