Abstract
This project will estimate dynamic models of the labour and marriage markets for Indonesia. Using the Indonesian Family Life Survey (IFLS), the study proposes to estimate empirical models describing:
1) transitions between employment in the formal and informal sectors;
2) transitions between being married and not being married;
3) transitions into retirement; and,
4) transitions between living in one’s own home town and another area.
