We document a large decrease in earnings inequality in Brazil between 1996 and 2012. Using administrative linked employer-employee data, we fit high-dimensional worker and firm fixed effects models to understand the sources of this decrease. Firm effects account for 40 percent of the total decrease and worker effects for 29 percent. Changes in observable worker and firm characteristics contributed little to these trends. Instead, the decrease is primarily due to a compression of returns to these characteristics, particularly a declining firm productivity pay premium. Our results shed light on potential drivers of earnings inequality dynamics.
This volume gathers the latest advances, innovations, and applications in the field of accelerated pavement testing (APT), presented at the 6th International Conference on Accelerated Pavement Testing, in Nantes, France, in April 2022. Discussing APT, which involves rapid testing of full-scale pavement constructions for structural deterioration, the book covers topics such as APT facilities, APT of asphalt concrete and sustainable/innovative materials, APT for airfield pavements, testing of maintenance and rehabilitation solutions, testing of smart and multi-functional pavements, data analysis and modeling, monitoring and non-destructive testing, and efficient means of calibrating/developing pavement design methods. Featuring peer-reviewed contributions by leading international researchers and engineers, the book is a timely and highly relevant resource for materials scientists and engineers interested in determining the performance of pavement structures during their service life (10+ years) in a few weeks or months.
O livro traz reflexões acerca da juventude de uma escola pública estadual, localizada na bela cidade de Sabinópolis, MG. Até chegar às suas mãos, esta obra passou por um processo de construção, sendo o fruto de uma pesquisa realizada pelo egresso do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação, da Universidade Federal dos Vales do Jequitinhonha e Mucuri (UFVJM), Luís Carlos Pinto. Os textos foram organizados em Seções, em uma sequência que busca dialogar com a realidade escolar, com as quais professores pudessem se identificar e que trouxessem questões para ressignificar as práticas cotidianas da relação entre os jovens estudantes e o Ensino Médio Integral e Integrado.
