In December 2023 Björn Becker, Marco Clemens und Sven Hartmann from the IAAEU attended the 2023 Asian and Australasian Society of Labour Economics Conference (AASLE) at the National Taiwan University in Taipei. At AASLE, researchers presented their latest findings in various areas of labour market research. The session topics were diverse and varied, including presentations on COVID-19, gender, and migration, among others. With many parallel sessions, AASLE guaranteed exciting presentations for researchers across a wide spectrum of topics.
The conference was attended by several renowned experts from all around the world from top universities. Notable researchers, such as Andrea Weber from the Central European University, David Dorn from the University of Zurich, and Jessica Pan from the National University of Singapore participated in panel discussions or led the conference with their keynote presentations.
During the Family Economics session, Björn Becker presented his work titled "Life Satisfaction and Educational Hypogamy among Traditional Attitudes," examining the impact of a female partner's higher education on their life satisfaction. In the session on Firm Policies and Wage, Marco Clemens presented a project, developed in collaboration with Laszlo Goerke, exploring the relationship between union membership and bonus payments. In another Family Economics session, Sven Hartmann presented his paper on the effects of access to West German television in the GDR on various demographic factors. All three researchers from IAAEU received valuable feedback that will contribute greatly to the quality of their papers.
AASLE provided an excellent platform for scientific debates and progress at all levels, making it a resounding success. We extend our gratitude to the organisers and look forward to future meetings in the AASLE event series.
