This paper discusses some recent advances in the area of culture and economics and examines the effect of culture on a key economic outcome: female labor supply. To separate the effect of market variables and institutions from culture, I use an epidemiological approach, studying second-generation American women. I use both female labor force participation (LFP) and attitudes in the women’s coun...

The first few hundred Myrs at $z>10$ mark the last major uncharted epoch in history of Universe, where only a single galaxy (GNz11 $z\approx11$) is currently spectroscopically confirmed. Here we present search for luminous galaxies with $JWST$/NIRCam photometry spanning $\approx1-5\mu$m and covering 49 arcmin$^{2}$ from public Early Release Science programs (CEERS GLASS). Our most secure candid...

We empirically assess the relationship between cultural assimilation and subjective well-being of immigrants by using the German Socio-Economic Panel, a longitudinal dataset including information on both the economic and non economic conditions of the respondents. We …nd that the more immigrants identify with the German culture and ‡uently speak the national language, the more they report to be...

This paper argues that politicians are overprotected. The costs of political assassination differ systematically depending on whether a private or a public point of view is taken. A politician attributes a very high (if not infinite) cost to his or her survival. The social cost of political assassination is much smaller as politicians are replaceable. Conversely, the private cost of the securit...

A tanulmány a kulturális szféra területén az intézményi renszer és közvetlen állami szerepvállalás közötti kapcsolat - globalizáció hatására bekövetkező változásait vizsgálja. Az Egyesült Államok Oroszország szférájának finanszírozása különböző szintről, teljesen eltérő úton indult el, kultúrafinanszírozási modellek tekintetében két ellentéted technikát valósított meg. tanulmányban szerző által...

Pheromone binding proteins (PBPs) play an important role in olfaction of insects by transporting sex pheromones across the sensillum lymph to odorant receptors. To obtain a better understanding of the molecular basis between PBPs and semiochemicals, we have cloned, expressed, and purified two PBPs (CpunPBP2 and CpunPBP5) from the antennae of Conogethes punctiferalis. Fluorescence competitive bi...

Gender, Ethnic Identity and Work The European Union’s strategy to raise employment is confronted with very low work participation among many minority ethnic groups, in particular among immigrants. This study examines the potential of immigrants’ identification with the home and host country ethnicity to explain that deficit. It introduces a two-dimensional understanding of ethnic identity, as a...

Let C be a smooth projective absolutely irreducible curve of genus g ≥ 2 over a number field K of degree d, and denote its Jacobian by J . Denote the Mordell–Weil rank of J(K) by r. We give an explicit and practical Chabauty-style criterion for showing that a given subset K ⊆ C(K) is in fact equal to C(K). This criterion is likely to be successful if r ≤ d(g − 1). We also show that the only sol...
