1. Modern Family? The Gendered Effects of Marriage and Childbearing on Voter Turnout

Author: Giorgio Bellettini, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, Enrico Cantoni, Chiara Monfardini, and Jerome Schafer
Subjects: Sociology and Political Science
Abstract: In many democracies, gender differences in voter turnout have narrowed or even reversed. Yet, it appears that women participate more in some circumstances and men in others. Here we study how life trajectories – specifically, marriage and having children – will impact male and female turnout differently, depending on household-level context. To this end, we leverage a unique administrative panel dataset from Italy, an established democracy where traditional family structures remain important. Our within-individual estimates show that marriage increases men's participation to women's higher pre-marital levels, particularly so in low-income families. We also find that infants depress maternal turnout, especially among more traditional families, whereas primary school children stimulate paternal turnout. Exploring aggregate-level consequences, we show that demographic trends in marriage and fertility have contributed to recent shifts in the gender composition of the electorate. Together, our results highlight the importance of the family as a variable in political analyses.

2. Making Unequal Democracy Work? The Effects of Income on Voter Turnout in Northern Italy

Abstract: In many democracies, voter turnout is higher among the rich than the poor. But do changes in income lead to changes in electoral participation? We address this question with unique administrative data matching a decade of individual tax records with voter rolls in a large municipality in northern Italy. We document several important findings. First, levels of income and turnout both dropped disproportionately among relatively poor citizens following the Great Recession. Second, we show that within-individual changes in income have an effect on participation, which is modest on average due to diminishing returns, but can be consequential among the poor. Third, we find that declining turnout of voters facing economic insecurity has exacerbated the income skew in participation, suggesting that income inequality and turnout inequality may reinforce each other. We discuss the theoretical implications of these results, set in a context with strong civic traditions and low barriers to voting.

5. Immigration, ethnic diversity and voting: the role of individual income

Author: Giorgio Bellettini, Chiara Monfardini, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, Bellettini, Giorgio, Ceroni, Carlotta Berti, and Monfardini, Chiara

Abstract: We exploit a unique panel dataset merging data on individual socio-economic characteristics and individual turnout in an Italian municipality to investigate the relationship between ethnic diversity in residential neighborhoods and propensity to vote. Using these data, we document for the first time a differential effect of diversity on electoral turnout depending on household equivalent income. Specifically, we show that ethnic diversity in the neighborhood reduces the political participation of the poor, while it fosters that of the more affluent. These results highlight a potential democratic deficit stemming from reduced and unequal electoral turnout in increasingly heterogeneous neighborhoods.

Abstract: The CDF and D0 experiments at the Fermilab Tevatron have measured the asymmetry between yields of forward- and backward-produced top and antitop quarks based on their rapidity difference and the asymmetry between their decay leptons. These measurements use the full data sets collected in proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of √s=1.96 TeV. We report the results of combinations of the inclusive asymmetries and their differential dependencies on relevant kinematic quantities. The combined inclusive asymmetry is At¯tFB=0.128±0.025. The combined inclusive and differential asymmetries are consistent with recent standard model predictions., Physical Review Letters, 120 (4), ISSN:0031-9007, ISSN:1079-7114

7. Family Structure and the Turnout Gender Gap: Evidence from Italy

Author: Giorgio Bellettini, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, Enrico Cantoni, Chiara Monfardini, Giorgio Bellettini, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, Enrico Cantoni, and Chiara Monfardini
Subjects: voter turnout, life-cycle transitions, household structure, gender gap
Abstract: We study the effects of changes in household structure–marriage, divorce, widowhood, and the presence of children of different ages–on individual-level voter turnout. To this end, we assemble a unique voter-level panel dataset spanning four elections in a large Italian municipality. The data merge information from administrative voter rolls, the civil register, and income tax files. Differences-in-differences estimates accounting for voter fixed effects reveal sizable effects of marital status and children on voter participation. Impact estimates are significantly different across genders and are not explained by socio-economic characteristics. To show that changes in voter participation do not predate changes in family structure, we use an event-study approach that is rare in micro-econometric studies of voter turnout. Lastly, we explore possible mechanisms using pooled cross-sectional data from the Italian National Election Studies and the ISTAT Aspects of Daily Life surveys. Our results shed new light on the importance of life-course transitions and their gender heterogeneous effects as key drivers of voter turnout.

8. The Science Training Program for Young Italian Physicists and Engineers at Fermilab

Author: Simone Donati, Giorgio Bellettini, Emanuela Barzi, and Carmela Luongo
Subjects: Medical education, Graduate students, Physics Education (physics.ed-ph), 4. Education, Tevatron, Physics - Physics Education, FOS: Physical sciences, Fermilab, Training program
Abstract: The summer training program for Italian undergraduate and graduate students at the Department of Energy (DOE) laboratory of Fermilab (Batavia, Illinois, USA) started in 1984 as a 2 month training program for Italian undergraduate students in physics of the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN) collaborating in the Collider Detector experiment (CDF) at the Fermilab Tevatron proton - antiproton collider. While in 1984 the program involved only 4 physics students from the University of Pisa, in the following years it rapidly grew in scope and size under the management of the Cultural Association of Italians at Fermilab (CAIF). With an average number of 30 trainees/year reached in the last few years, the total number of Italian students hosted at Fermilab since 1984 has exceeded 500 units. Since 2015 the program has been included in the portfolio of the summer courses of the University of Pisa, which acknowledges 6 ECTS to the interns., Presented at the 12th International Conference on Education and Development INTED 2018, March 5-7, 2018, Valencia (Spain)

9. The Italian Summer Students Program at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory and other US Laboratories

Author: Giorgio Bellettini, Simone Donati, Carmela Luongo, and Emanuela Barzi
Subjects: Outreach, Physics Education (physics.ed-ph), Internship, Physics - Physics Education, FOS: Physical sciences, Library science, Fermilab, Space Science, Training program
Abstract: Since 1984 INFN scientists performing experiments at Fermilab have been running a two month summer training program for Italian students at the lab. In 1984 the program involved only a few physics students from the Pisa group, but it was later extended to other groups and to engineering students. Since 2004 the program has been supported in part by DOE in the frame of an exchange agreement with INFN. The Fermilab training programs spanned from data analysis to design and construction of particle detectors and accelerator components, research on superconductive elements, theory of accelerators, and analysis of astrophysical data. At the other US laboratories the offered training was on Space Science., Proceedings of the XXXIX International Conference on High Energy Physics, July 4-11, 2018, Seoul (Korea)

10. The Italian Summer Students Program at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory

Author: Simone Donati, Carmela Luongo, Giorgio Bellettini, and Emanuela Barzi
Subjects: Outreach, Internship, Library science, Fermilab, Space Science, Training program
Abstract: Since 1984 INFN scientists performing experiments at Fermilab have been running a two-month summer training program for Italian students at the lab. In 1984 the program involved only a few physics students from the Pisa group, but it was later extended to other groups and to engineering students. Since 2004 the program has been supported in part by DOE in the frame of an exchange agreement with INFN and has been run by the Cultural Association of Italians at Fermilab (CAIF). In 2007 the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies (Pisa) established an agreement with Fermilab to share the cost of four engineering students each year. In the 34 years of its history, the program has hosted at Fermilab approximately 530 Italian students from more than 20 Italian universities and from some non-Italian universities . In addition, in the years 2010-2018, with the support of INAF, ASI, and CAIF, 25 students were hosted in other US laboratories and universities. The Fermilab training programs spanned from data analysis to design and construction of particle detectors and accelerator components, R/D on superconductive elements, theory of accelerators, and analysis of astrophysical data. At the other US laboratories the offered training was on Space Science. In 2015 the University of Pisa endorsed the program as one of his own Summer Schools. The interns are enrolled as Pisa students for the duration of the internship. They are required to write summary reports published in the Fermilab and University of Pisa web pages. Upon positive evaluation by a University board, students are acknowledged 6 ECTS credits. In 2017 a new initiative of the Oxford Summer School "MovingKnowledge17" allowed three Fermilab summer students to be trained in neutrino physics to spend the month of July at Oxford to follow an advanced course on HEP. The entire program is expected to expand further under CAIF management. An agreement has been signed between ASI and CAIF, for ASI to support yearly three two-months fellowships in US space science laboratories. The program is also part of the Outreach of the European Projects MUSE (H2020-MSCA-RISE-2015, GA 690835), NEWS (H2020-MSCA-RISE-2016, GA 734303) and INTENSE (H2020-MSCA-RISE-2018, GA 822185 in preparation).

Author: Giorgio Bellettini, Sergio Pastorello, Flavio Delbono, Peter Karlström, Bellettini, Giorgio, Delbono, Flavio, Karlström, Peter, and Pastorello, Sergio
Subjects: Economics and Econometrics, Index (economics), 05 social sciences, Empirical research, Income inequality, Banking crises, Credit booms, Economic inequality, Income distribution, 0502 economics and business, Value (economics), Economics, Positive relationship, Demographic economics, 050207 economics, Developed country, 050205 econometrics
Abstract: We perform an empirical analysis to investigate the relationship between income inequality and the occurrence of banking crises on a panel of 33 advanced countries in the period 1970–2011. Differently from other empirical studies, we focus on levels rather than growth rates of income inequality. We find a statistically significant and positive relationship between the value of the Gini index and the probability of banking crises. This result is confirmed when income distribution is summarized by the top 1% income share.

Abstract: A search for the exotic meson X(5568) decaying into the B_{s}^{0}π^{±} final state is performed using data corresponding to 9.6 fb^{-1} from pp[over ¯] collisions at sqrt[s]=1960 GeV recorded by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. No evidence for this state is found and an upper limit of 6.7% at the 95% confidence level is set on the fraction of B_{s}^{0} produced through the X(5568)→B_{s}^{0}π^{±} process.

Abstract: Using data for a panel of 62 partly to fully democratic countries in the period 1984–2008, we provide evidence that political persistence (measured as the longest tenure in office of main political entities) is negatively associated with growth, after controlling for country and time fixed effects, and that this association is stronger in countries with low bureaucratic quality, where the cost of red tape is high. This evidence can be rationalized by means of a growth model with quality improvements where political connections with politicians can be exploited by low-quality producers to mitigate red tape costs, defend their monopoly position and prevent entry of higher-quality competitors. The model implies a negative relationship between persistence in office of politicians and economic growth in high red-tape countries, while no association is expected where red tape costs are low.

16. The Italian Summer Students Program at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory

Author: Emanuela Barzi, Simone Donati, and Giorgio Bellettini
Subjects: Outreach, Internship, Library science, Fermilab, Space Science, Training program
Abstract: Since 1984 the INFN groups have been running a 2-month summer training program for Italian students at Fermilab. In 1984 the program involved only a few physics students from the Pisa group, but it was later extended to other groups and to engineering students. Since 2004 the program has been supported in part by DOE in the frame of an exchange agreement with INFN. In 2007 the Sant’Anna School of Advanced Studies (Pisa) established an agreement with Fermilab to share the cost of 4 engineering students each year. In the 34 years of its history, the program has involved approximately 500 Italian students from more than 20 Italian universities and from some European universities. In the years 2010-2017, with the support of INFN, INAF, ASI, ISSNAF and the Cultural Association of Italians at Fermilab (CAIF), 20 students were hosted in several other US laboratories and universities. The Fermilab training programs spanned from data analysis to design and construction of particle detectors and accelerator components, R/D on superconductive elements, theory of accelerators, analysis of astrophysical data. In 2015 the University of Pisa created an ad-hoc Summer School. Fermilab interns are enrolled at the University of Pisa for the duration of the internship. They are required to write summary reports published in the Fermilab and University of Pisa web pages. Upon positive evaluation of a University of Pisa committee, students are acknowledged 6 ECTS credits. In 2017 a new agreement with the summer school "MovingKnowledge17" promoted by Oxford University and dedicated to neutrino physics allowed to 3 Fermilab summer students to spend also 4 weeks at Oxford working with the local groups. The entire program will grow under CAIF management. INFN has granted his sponsorship to CAIF, and an agreement has been negotiated between CAIF and ASI for fellowships in US space science laboratories supported by ASI. The program is also part of the outreach of the European Projects MUSE (H2020-MSCA-RISE-2015, GA 690835) and NEWS (H2020-MSCA-RISE-2016, GA 734303). We report on recruiting method, training programs, and on final students’ evaluation.

Abstract: We use a political economy model of Schumpeterian growth with entry to investigate how an incumbent politician can strategically use the level of red tape to acquire incumbency advantage. By setting sufficiently high red tape, the politician induces the incumbent firm in the intermediate sector to invest in political connections, which are valued also by voters, who recognize that bureaucratic costs can be reduced by connected firms. Within this framework, we study the Markov perfect equilibria of an infinitely repeated game among politicians, firms, and voters, and show that all equilibria are characterized by investments in political connections and the re-election of the incumbent politician. Political connections may prevent entry of advanced competitors and cause the economy to lag behind the technological frontier. Our model provides a possible explanation for the persistence of inefficient democracies and political barriers to technology development, where these reflect shared rather than conflicting interests.

Abstract: Observing WZ/ZZ production at the Tevatron in the final state with a lepton, missing transverse energy and two jets is extremely difficult because of the low signal rate and the very large background. In the attempt to increase the acceptance in the analysis of the data collected by the CDF experiment, we study the sample with 3 high-energy jets, where according to simulations about 1/3 of the diboson events are expected to be. Rather than choosing always the two jets of largest transverse energy ( E T ) to reconstruct the Z mass, we make use of the information carried by all jets. We describe in detail how to better combine the jet information, and introduce a method of interest in every experiment searching for hadronic resonances in the W/Z + jets channel, including measurements of Higgs boson production associated with a W or Z.

20. Why not in your backyard? On the location and size of a public facility

Abstract: In this paper, we tackle the issue of locating a public facility which provides a public good in a closed and populated territory. This facility generates differentiated benefits to neighborhoods depending on their distance from it. In the case of a Nimby facility, the smaller is the distance, the lower is the individual benefit. The opposite is true in the case of an anti-Nimby facility. We first characterize the optimal location which would be chosen by a social planner. Then we introduce a common-agency lobbying game, where agents attempt to influence the location and provision decisions by the government. Some interesting results arise in the case where only a subset of neighborhoods lobby. First, the solution of the lobbying game can replicate the optimal solution. Second, under-provision and over-provision of the public good may be obtained both in the Nimby and the anti-Nimby cases. The provision outcome depends on the presence of either a congestion effect or an agglomeration effect. Third, some non-lobbying neighborhoods may be better off than in the case where all neighborhoods lobby, which raises the possibility of free-riding at the lobbying stage.

Abstract: We present a measurement of the total WW and WZ production cross sections in pp collision at s=1.96 TeV, in a final state consistent with leptonic W boson decay and jets originating from heavy-flavor quarks from either a W or a Z boson decay. This analysis uses the full data set collected with the CDF II detector during Run II of the Tevatron collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.4 fb-1. An analysis of the dijet mass spectrum provides 3.7σ evidence of the summed production processes of either WW or WZ bosons with a measured total cross section of σWW+WZ=13.7±3.9 pb. Independent measurements of the WW and WZ production cross sections are allowed by the different heavy-flavor decay patterns of the W and Z bosons and by the analysis of secondary-decay vertices reconstructed within heavy-flavor jets. The productions of WW and of WZ dibosons are independently seen with significances of 2.9σ and 2.1σ, respectively, with total cross sections of σWW=9.4±4.2 pb and σWZ=3.7-2.2+2.5 pb. The measurements are consistent with standard-model predictions.

Abstract: et al., A search for a Higgs boson with suppressed couplings to fermions, hf, assumed to be the neutral, lower-mass partner of the Higgs boson discovered at the Large Hadron Collider, is reported. Such a Higgs boson could exist in extensions of the standard model with two Higgs doublets, and could be produced via pp¯→H±hf→W∗hfhf→4γ+X, where H± is a charged Higgs boson. This analysis uses all events with at least three photons in the final state from proton-antiproton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.2 fb−1. No evidence of a signal is observed in the data. Values of Higgs-boson masses between 10 and 100 GeV/c2 are excluded at 95% Bayesian credibility., This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy and National Science Foundation; the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare; the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan; the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada; the National Science Council of the Republic of China; the Swiss National Science Foundation; the A.

24. Knowing the Right Person in the Right Place: Political Connections and Resistance to Change

Author: Giovanni Prarolo, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, Giorgio Bellettini, Giorgio Bellettini, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, and Giovanni Prarolo
Subjects: PERSISTENCE, BUREAUCRACY, VOTING, ECONOMIC GROWTH
Abstract: In a political economy model of Schumpeterian growth with entry, we investigate how an incumbent politician can strategically use the level of red tape to acquire incumbency advantage. By setting sufficiently high red tape, the politician induces the incumbent firm in the intermediate sector to invest in political connections which are valued also by voters, who recognize that bureaucratic costs can be reduced by connected firms. Within this framework, we study the Markov perfect equilibria of an infinitely repeated game between politicians, firms and voters and show that all equilibria are characterized by investment in political connections and re-election of the incumbent politician. Political connections may prevent entry of advanced competitors and cause the economy to lag behind the technological frontier. Our model provides a possible explanation for the persistence of inefficient democracies and political barriers to technology development, where these reflect shared rather than conflicting interests.

25. Politicians' coherence and government debt

Abstract: We model a society that values the coherence between past policy platforms and current implemented policy, and where policy platforms partially commit candidates to their future actions. If an incumbent politician seeks to be reelected, she has to use her platforms to commit to moderate policies that can be distant from her most preferred one. Commitment is related to the incoherence cost that politicians pay when they renege on promised platforms. In this context, we suggest a novel mechanism through which issuing government debt can affect electoral results. Debt is exploited by an incumbent politician, who is in favor of low spending, to damage the credibility of her opponent's policy platforms, and be reelected. A higher level of debt decreases voters' most preferred level of spending, and makes the opponent's past platform a losing policy. Even if the latter chose to update her proposal, she would not be able to credibly commit to it, given the incoherence cost associated to changing proposals.

26. Neighborhood heterogeneity and electoral turnout

Abstract: We perform an empirical analysis to investigate how neighborhood heterogeneity affects electoral turnout. To this end, we rely on a unique dataset on local elections in an Italian municipality, which merges information on socio-economic characteristics of about 370.000 individuals with turnout data for 434 electoral precincts in 2004 and 2009. Exploiting both across and within precincts variation, we are able to disentangle the contextual effects on precinct-level electoral turnout of two different dimensions of neighborhood heterogeneity: income inequality and ethnic composition. Our results support the idea that contextual heterogeneity negatively affects political participation.

Abstract: We measure the particle-level forward-backward production asymmetry in b¯b pairs with masses (mb¯b) larger than 150 GeV/c2, using events with hadronic jets and employing jet charge to distinguish b from ¯b. The measurement uses 9.5 fb−1 of p¯p collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV recorded by the CDF II detector. The asymmetry as a function of mb¯b is consistent with zero, as well as with the predictions of the standard model. The measurement disfavors a simple model including an axigluon with a mass of 200 GeV/c2, whereas a model containing a heavier 345 GeV/c2 axigluon is not excluded., Physical Review D, 92 (3), ISSN:1550-7998, ISSN:0556-2821, ISSN:1550-2368

Abstract: We study an OLG economy where productivity growth comes from two alternative sources: process innovation and learning-by-doing. There is a trade-off between the two in so far as frequent technological updates reduce the scope for learning on existing technologies. A conflict is shown to arise between the young and the old, because the former favour innovation while the latter prefer learning. We model the interaction between overlapping generations and policy makers as a dynamic common agency problem, where competing generations invest a certain amount of resources to lobby either for the maintenance of the current technology or the adoption of a new one. By focusing on truthful Markov perfect equilibria, we characterize the political equilibrium and show its dependence on the underlying demographic, technological and preference parameters.

30. Compulsory Schooling Laws and the Cure for Child Labour

Abstract: This paper provides an explanation for the existence of child labour which relies on the imperfect enforcement of compulsory schooling laws. In the presence of complementarities in the production of human capital that justify legislative intervention, mandatory measures ensure that coordination failures are solved so that all parents send their children to school and the socially optimal equilibrium is reached. However, if enforcement of legislation is too low, multiple equilibria emerge. In this case, compulsory schooling laws may have adverse welfare effects on all households.

31. Persistence of Politicians and Firms' Innovation

Abstract: We empirically investigate whether the persistence of politicians in political institutions affects the innovation activity of firms. We use 12,000 firm-level observations from three waves of the Italian Observatory over Small and Medium Enterprises, and introduce a measure of political persistence defined as the average length of individual political careers in political institutions of Italian municipalities. Standard OLS shows no raw correlation between political persistence and firmsâ€™ innovation activity. However, once the causal effect is isolated by means of instrumental variables, using death of politicians as an exogenous source of variation of political persistence, we find a robust negative relation between political persistence and the probability of process innovation. This finding is consistent with the view that political stability may hinder firmsâ€™ incentive to innovate to maintain their competitiveness, as long as they can extract rents from long-term connections with politicians.

Abstract: We identify the degree of intergenerational altruism in an OLG framework à la Barro exploiting the quasi-experimental variation generated by reforms of bequest taxation (estate or inheritance tax, in the U.S.) and taxes on inter vivos real estate donations (gift tax, in the U.S.) that were enacted in Italy between 2000 and 2001. Employing a unique data set containing information on the housing stock and house prices in 13 large Italian cities between 1993 and 2004, we identify the structural parameter of interest via the effect of changes in the tax rate on house prices. We find that the intergenerational altruism parameter is about 20%. Given the possible anticipation of the reform this estimate should be interpreted as a lower bound.

35. Socio-Economic Heterogeneity and Electoral Turnout: An Aggregate Analysis with Precinct-Level Data

Author: Giorgio Bellettini, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, and Chiara Monfardini
Subjects: jel:D72, income inequality, electoral turnout, heterogeneity
Abstract: In this paper we perform an empirical analysis to investigate the impact of socio-economic heterogeneity on electoral turnout. We exploit a unique dataset on local elections in an Italian municipality, which merges information on socio-economic characteristics of about 370.000 individuals with turnout data at the precinct level in 2004 and 2009. Controlling for unobserved precinct-specific fixed effects, we find that electoral turnout is not affected by income inequality. We also document a negative effect on electoral participation of the share of immigrants, population density, and the share of singles. These results suggest that increased ethnic heterogeneity and reduced social pressure tend to depress turnout.

36. Social security expenditure and economic growth: an empirical assessment

Author: Giorgio Bellettini and Carlotta Berti Ceroni
Subjects: Social security, Macroeconomics, Economics and Econometrics, Economic security, Economics, Demographic economics, Sample (statistics), Empirical relationship, Social mobility, Developed country, Human capital, Panel data
Abstract: In this paper, we analyse the empirical relationship between social security expenditure and economic growth, using cross-country data for a sample of 61 countries and panel data for a sample of 20 industrialized countries. We find that, whenever a statistically significant association between social security expenditure and growth exists, it has a positive sign. The positive estimated coefficient of social security expenditure seems robust to various forms of misspecification and appears to be larger in poor countries with relatively underdeveloped social security systems. As for the channels through which the positive effect of social security expenditure on growth should take place, our results seem to indicate that social security has a positive influence on human capital formation.

Abstract: We report the observation and measurement of the mass of the bottom, strange baryon $\Xi^-_b$ through the decay chain $\Xi^-_b \to J/\psi \Xi^-$, where $J/\psi \to \mu^+ \mu^-$, $\Xi^- \to \Lambda \pi^-$, and $\Lambda \to p \pi^-$. Evidence for observation is based on a signal whose probability of arising from the estimated background is 6.6 x 10^{-15}, or 7.7 Gaussian standard deviations. The $\Xi^-_b$ mass is measured to be $5792.9\pm 2.5$ (stat.) $\pm 1.7$ (syst.) MeV/$c^2$., Comment: Minor text changes for the second version. Accepted by Phys. Rev. Lett

Abstract: We report an observation of new bottom baryons produced in pp̄ collisions at the Tevatron. Using 1.1fb-1 of data collected by the CDF II detector, we observe four Λb0π± resonances in the fully reconstructed decay mode Λb0→Λc+π-, where Λc+→pK-π+. We interpret these states as the Σb(*) ± baryons and measure the following masses: mΣb+=5807.8-2.2+2. 0(stat.)±1.7(syst.)MeV/c2, mΣb-=5815.2±1.0(stat.)±1. 7(syst.)MeV/c2, and m(Σb*)-m(Σb)=21.2-1.9+2.0(stat.)-0.3+0. 4(syst.)MeV/c2

41. Bequest taxes, donations and house prices

Author: Filippo Taddei, Giorgio Bellettini, Giulio Zanella, Bellettini G., Taddei F., and Zanella G.
Subjects: Economics and Econometrics, Labour economics, Bequest, Gift tax, media_common.quotation_subject, House prices, Real estate, Monetary economics, Tax reform, Donation, Altruism, Inheritance tax, Tax rate, Economics, Estate, media_common
Abstract: This paper is an empirical investigation into the effect of bequest taxes (estate or inheritance tax, in the US) and inter vivos real estate donations taxes (gift tax, in the US) on (i) house prices, (ii) house donations, and (iii) market transactions. In a simple model with intergenerational altruism, a lower tax rate unambiguously increases (i) and has an ambiguous effect on (ii) and (iii). We test these predictions using an original and unique data set containing information on sales, donations and real estate prices in 13 large Italian cities between 1993 and 2004. This period spans a major reform that first decreased and then abolished the inter vivos real estate donations tax and bequest tax in Italy. We find that the reform is associated with cumulative real appreciation of about 5% between 2001 and 2004, an increase in donations, and a decrease in market transactions over the same period.

42. Political Persistence, Connections and Economic Growth

Author: Giorgio Bellettini, Carlotta Berti Ceroni, and Giovanni Prarolo
Subjects: jel:O43, Political Persistence, Growth, Innovation
Abstract: Using data on a panel of 56 democratic countries in the period 1975-2004, we find evidence of a negative association between political stability and economic growth which is stronger and empirically more robust in countries with high bureaucratic costs. Motivated by these results, which contrast with previous contributions, we develop a model of growth with quality improvements where political connections with long-term politicians can be exploited by low-quality producers to defend their monopoly position and prevent innovation and entry of high-quality competitors. This requires that the incumbent politician remains in office and that the red-tape cost advantage granted by political connections is large relative to the quality upgrade related to innovation. Consistently with our empirical findings, the model delivers a negative association between the probability that the incumbent politician remains in office and average economic growth in the presence of high bureaucratic costs.

43. Real Estate Prices and the Importance of Bequest Taxation

Author: Giorgio Bellettini and Filippo Taddei
Subjects: real estate prices, donations, bequest taxation, jel:H24, bequest tax, donations, real estate, jel:E62, jel:E60, jel:E65, jel:H30
Abstract: Taxation of bequests and donations is an important determinant of real estate prices. We show that, ceteris paribus, a decrease in taxes on inter vivos donations and bequests brings about an increase in real estate prices. We provide a general equilibrium rationalization in the context of OLG economies featuring intergenerational altruism. This has relevant policy implications. We test the predictions of our theory employing a unique policy shock: the abolition of bequest and donation taxation that took place in Italy in 2001. Considering this policy shift provides the first evidence that a drastic reduction in bequest and donation taxation significantly increased real estate prices. Our estimates suggest that the 2001 abolition of taxation on bequests and donations alone led to an appreciation of residential real estate in excess of 10%.

Abstract: The {ital W}{prime} is a charged, heavy, vector boson predicted to exist by some extensions of the standard model. We have searched for the processes {ital W}{prime}{r arrow}{ital e}{nu} and {ital W}{prime}{r arrow}{mu}{nu} for {ital M}{sub {ital W}{prime}}{gt}100 GeV/{ital c}{sup 2}, in {ital {bar p}p} collisions at {radical}{ital s} =1.8 TeV, using data taken with the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The nonobservation of these processes leads to a lower limit of 520 Gev/{ital c}{sup 2} (95% confidence level) on the mass of the {ital W}{prime}, assuming standard-strength couplings to three fermion generations.

46. Immigration Policy, Self-Selection and the Quality of Immigrants

Subjects: Labour economics, media_common.quotation_subject, Geography, Planning and Development, Immigration, Measures of national income and output, Development, Human capital, Emigration, Skill mix, Immigration policy, Negative relationship, Economics, Quality (business), health care economics and organizations, media_common
Abstract: This paper investigates the effects of immigration quotas on the average quality of immigrants by developing a human capital migration model where efficiency in migration depends on skills and emigration rates are higher among skilled workers. Studying the joint determination of the domestic level of wages and immigrants’ selfselection, we find a negative relationship between the wage level and the percentage of educated workers among immigrants, which results in a non-standard downward sloping labor supply. In our framework, an higher quota increases the skill mix of immigrants through its negative effect on wages and raises aggregate national income.

47. Why Not in Your Backyard? On the Location and Size of a Public Facility

Author: Hubert Kempf and Giorgio Bellettini
Subjects: Microeconomics, Government, Public economics, NIMBY, Economics, Public good, Public Facility, Outcome (game theory), Social planner
Abstract: In this paper, we tackle the issue of locating a public facility which provides a public good in a closed and populated territory. This facility generates differentiated benefits to neighborhoods depending on their distance from it. In the case of a Nimby facility, the smaller is the distance, the lower is the individual benefit. The opposite is true in the case of an anti-Nimby facility. We first characterize the optimal location which would be chosen by a social planner. Then we introduce a common-agency lobbying game, where agents attempt to influence the location and provision decisions by the government. Some interesting results arise in the case where only a subset of neighborhoods lobby. First, the solution of the lobbying game can replicate the optimal solution. Second, under-provision and over-provision of the public good may be obtained both in the Nimby and the anti-Nimby cases. The provision outcome depends on the presence of either a congestion effect or an agglomeration effect. Third, some non-lobbying neighborhoods may be better off than in the case where all neighborhoods lobby, which raises the possibility of free-riding at the lobbying stage.

48. Immigration Policy, Migrants' Selection and Human Capital Accumulation

Abstract: This paper develops a human capital migration model where efficiency in migration depends on skills. A negative relationship is shown to exist between the domestic wage level and the percentage of educated workers among immigrants, which results in a non-standard downward sloping labor supply. Consequently, the immigration quota should be set above a certain threshold to maximize the quality of immigrants and national income. Extending the analysis to a dynamic setting, we highlight additional effects of the immigration policy on human capital accumulation and economic growth.

49. Special Interests and Technological Change

Author: Giorgio Bellettini and Gianmarco I.P. Ottaviano
Subjects: Microeconomics, Politics, Scope (project management), Markov perfect equilibrium, Technological change, Principal–agent problem, Economics, Overlapping generations model, Process innovation, Preference
Abstract: We study an OLG economy where productivity growth comes from two alternative sources: process innovation and learning-by-doing. There is a trade-off between the two in so far as frequent technological updates reduce the scope for learning on existing technologies. A conflict is shown to arise between the young and the old, because the former favor innovation while the latter prefer learning. We model the interaction between overlapping generations and policy makers as a dynamic common agency problem, where competing generations invest a certain amount of resources to lobby either for the maintenance of the current technology or the adoption of a new one. By focusing on truthful Markov perfect equilibria, we characterize the political equilibrium and show its dependence on the underlying demographic, technological and preference parameters.
