论文摘要

使儿童获得教育是减少全球不平等,贫困和健康状况不佳的最有效手段之一。在正常时期,政府控制其教育政策,但在宏观经济不稳定时期,控制可能会转向支持国际货币基金(IMF)等国际组织。尽管许多研究集中在哪些部门受到国际货币基金组织政策影响的影响,但学者们对影响教育部门和儿童教育成果的国际货币基金组织干预措施的政策内容几乎没有关注:表示的IMF教育政策。本文评估了IMF教育政策在所有计划中存在的程度,以及这些政策和IMF计划如何影响儿童完成学校的可能性。尽管国际货币基金组织的教育政策对儿童完成学校的可能性有很小的不利影响,但在统计上微不足道,但这些政策对IMF计划的中等效果异质性。国际货币基金组织计划(联合政策集)的影响不利地影响了儿童在学校完成学位的机会6个百分点。通过分析IMF教育政策以及IMF计划如何影响低收入和中等收入国家的教育部门,学者们将对这些政策可能如何影响下游结果有了更深入的了解。

Enabling children to acquire an education is one of the most effective means to reduce inequality, poverty, and ill-health globally. While in normal times a government controls its educational policies, during times of macroeconomic instability, that control may shift to supporting international organizations, such as the International Monetary Fund (IMF). While much research has focused on which sectors has been affected by IMF policies, scholars have devoted little attention to the policy content of IMF interventions affecting the education sector and childrens education outcomes: denoted IMF education policies. This article evaluates the extent which IMF education policies exist in all programs and how these policies and IMF programs affect childrens likelihood of completing schools. While IMF education policies have a small adverse effect yet statistically insignificant on childrens probability of completing school, these policies moderate effect heterogeneity for IMF programs. The effect of IMF programs (joint set of policies) adversely effect childrens chances of completing school by six percentage points. By analyzing how IMF-education policies but also how IMF programs affect the education sector in low and middle-income countries, scholars will gain a deeper understanding of how such policies will likely affect downstream outcomes.
