4 摘要
This study seeks to better understand the historical
origins of cross-cultural differences in beliefs about the appropriate
role of women in society. We test the hypothesis that traditional
agricultural practices influenced the historical gender division of labor
and the evolution and persistence of gender norms. We find that,
consistent with existing hypotheses, the descendants of societies that
traditionally practiced plough agriculture, today have less equal gender
norms, measured using reported gender-role attitudes and female
participation in the workplace, politics and entrepreneurial activities.
To test for the importance of culture, we examine second-generation
immigrants living within Europe and the United States. We find that
even among individuals born and raised in the same country, those
with a heritage of traditional plough use exhibit less equal beliefs
about gender roles today.

感谢分享、

看来我要加强学习了，最近看新paper比较少，主要是在反复看一个主题的几篇旧文章，想挖出点新东西。

   较早摆脱繁重体力劳动的地区（原因可能是地少人多，比如浙江）本来就是相对富裕的地方，富裕的地方女性地位相对较高。不知作者如何捕捉农耕文明的外生shock

看看

较早摆脱农耕社会的地区的人们是不是会更早的具有商业观念，更早的参与到市场中去。南北商业观念差距这么大，是不是也跟这个相关。
