This study analyzes the effect of one-child policy on marriage market in China, and focuses leftover situation, age, age differential between husband wife. Taking 30 as a cut-off point, has increased proportion about 1.2%, with 1.8% men 0.6% women. Although problem urban women made eye-catching general public, is much more serious than that women: former arising from true over-supply while latt...

This paper studies the effects of a one-child policy. A benchmark without the fertility constraint is compared to a counterfactual experiment with the fertility constraint in place. The results suggest that imposing the one-child policy promotes the accumulation of human capital and increases output per capita. In partial equilibrium, an unskilled adult’s welfare is lowered by the policy. Howev...
