• W118502437 abstract "Research has documented that conditions of marriage for women in South Asia such as dowries, consanguinity, early marriage, or spousal age gaps are important influences on her children’s and her own subsequent life outcomes. However, research on the determinants of these conditions of marriage has remained relatively sparse and largely descriptive. Since a variety of determinants can co-vary with each other and with unobservable characteristics, drawing causal inferences has been difficult. This paper uses the construction of a flood protection embankment in Matlab district in rural Bangladesh coupled with data on the universe of all 52,000 marriage decisions in that district between 1982 and 1996 to examine whether marital prospects for protected households improved after embankment construction relative to unprotected households living on the other side of the river. A variety of evidence is supportive that the embankment led to exogenous quasi-experimental variation in risk exposure and endowments across groups of households. We show that protected households commanded larger dowries, married into families with more land, and were less likely to marry biological relatives after embankment construction relative to those that remained unprotected. Estimates based on the subset of families with multiple marriages on either side of the embankment (where we can include household fixed effects) indicate that the same family is 40% less likely to marry a younger child to a biological relative after they are protected by embankment, compared to their older child who married prior to the embankment construction. Marrying consanguineously reduces the need for dowry payments, which seems to be the main mechanism driving this result." @default.
