Econ CAKE talk: Sang-hoon Lee
Join us for Colloquium for the Advancement of Knowledge in Economics (CAKE) talks by the Economics department.
Sang-hoon Lee, Professor of Economics, Hannam University in Korea and PhD graduate from the University of Utah, will be presenting on Social Tolerance and Economic Development.
This study empirically examines the relationship between social tolerance for homosexuality and economic development. Relevant theories support the positive effect of economic development on tolerance as well as the positive effect of tolerance on economic development. While previous studies of attitudes towards homosexuality mainly use individual-level data, we use country-level data and investigate the mutual effects of social tolerance and economic development. We use panel data regression models including pooled, fixed effects, and random effects models and the split-sample regression analysis. The empirical analysis confirms the mutual positive effects between tolerance and economic development.
