The Economics of Child Labour

In this book Cigno and Rosati develop a theoretical framework within which to analyze decisions about child labour, drawing on empirical studies and making policy recommendations. They address such issues as parental decisions, gender, education, health, fertility and infant mortality, and children living alone; provide studies of child labour in India, Vietnam, and Morocco; and discuss policies on compulsion and prohibition, redistribution, education, health, and
the labour market.
