1 Structural Transformation, Marketization, and Household Production around the World Benjamin Bridgman (BEA) Georg Duernecker (University of Mannheim, CEPR, IZA) Berthold Herrendorf (ASU) November / 46

2 1. Motivation Kuznets growth is associated with change in sectoral composition Structural transformation reallocation from goods to service production this is documented for the market sector in richer countries does it happen when the household sector is included? does it happen in poor countries? Marketization reallocation from household sector to market sector this is documented for some rich countries; does it happen in all countries including poor ones? 2 / 46

3 Our Contributions 1. Collect data for a large sample of countries 136 time use surveys from 43 countries hours of household and market production 1/2 of world population and 3/4 of world GDP all levels of development including poor countries (Bangladesh, Ghana, India, Pakistan, Tanzania, Uganda etc) Additional NIPA data for 3 of the 43 countries household worker wages, household capital, interest rates 2. Document new stylized facts around the world for hours and for value added structural transformation in the market and at home marketization of household production labor productivity of household versus market production 3 / 46

4 Sample Countries (by tercile in world distribution of GDP per capita) Top Australia, Austria, Basque Country, Canada, Denmark, Finland France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Korea, Netherlands, New Zealand Norway, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Taiwan, UK, Middle Albania, Columbia, Ecuador, Estonia, Hungary, Mexico Panama, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Uruguay Bottom Algeria, Bangladesh, Ghana, Guatemala, India, Iraq Kyrgyz Republic, Macedonia, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Tanzania, Uganda 4 / 46

5 Household Activities Broad categories Adultcare Animal care Childcare Cleaning, household upkeep Construction, repairs Food management Gardening Household management Shopping Textiles care Travel connected to the other household activities Note Main analysis includes childcare as part of household production. Robustness analysis excludes it. 5 / 46

27 3. Stylized Facts about Value Added Do stylized facts also hold for value added shares? The literature focuses on market sector. What about structural transformation including hh production? What about marketization? Challenge How to estimate value added of household production Value added of household production not exchanged in the market 27 / 46

28 3.1 Estimating Value Added of Household Production Common methodology across countries Income method Real value added of household sector j(r h + δ h Y h j j )Kh j + wh H h j(r m j = = p h Key condition close market substitutes for Y h, K h j, Hh observed p m, r m j, wm similar to unobserved p h, r h j, wh Microfoundation + δ h j )Kh j + wm H h p m 28 / 46

29 Implementing the Imputation Input factors into household production hours: hh hours from time use surveys capital: consumer durables related to hh production from NIPA (stock from perpetual inventory using U.S. depreciation rates) Market prices of close substitutes market wage of homeworkers 1 year government bond PCE deflator of similar market goods (PPP using OECD 25 benchmark) Summary Statistics 29 / 46

30 3.2 Structural Transformation and Marketization in terms of VA Structural transformation in terms of value added shares market goods increases market services decreases household production decreases (although noisy) Marketization household production relative to market production decreases Plot value added shares against GDP pc 3 / 46
