The Relationship

Abstract Labor market conditions in Greece have severely deteriorated during the crisis, affecting youths the most. Using the Greek crisis as a case-study, this paper examines the role of the family as a social safety net for its young members. Specifically, we test the relationship between youth labor outcomes and parental co-residence, whether this relationship has become stronger during the crisis, and the degree to which the relationship is causal. Our results confirm that the parental home is a refuge both for jobless youth and for those in poorly paid, insecure jobs, and this role has intensified during the crisis. We find no reverse causality between co-residence and employment status for young men, and significant reverse causality for women. This finding implies that all youths live in the parental home when they are in need themselves, but it is young women not men who live with parents when parents are in need or for cultural reasons.

Structural Inequities

Abstract COVID-19 is not spreading over a level playing field; structural racism is embedded within the fabric of American culture, infrastructure investments, and public policy and fundamentally drives inequities. The same racism that has driven the systematic dismantling of the American social safety net has also created the policy recipe for American structural vulnerability to the impacts of this and other pandemics. The Bronx provides an important case study for investigating the historical roots of structural inequities showcased by this pandemic; current lived experiences of Bronx residents are rooted in the racialized dismantling of New York City's public infrastructure and systematic disinvestment. The story of the Bronx is repeating itself, only this time with a novel virus. To address the root causes of inequities in cases and deaths due to COVID-19, we need to focus not just on restarting the economy but also on reimagining the economy, divesting of systems rooted in racism, and the devaluation of Black and Brown lives.

Shed Light

This article examines the affordable housing market to develop a new way to understand the problem of co-optation in participatory urban governance. Through a case study of the Chicago metropolitan area, it uses data from 105 in-depth interviews—supplemented with ethnographic, archival, and secondary data—to shed light on the circumstances in which poverty-managing organizations compete for the resources necessary to house marginalized populations. Findings show how community-based groups, which have long housed the poorest neighborhoods and residents, are systematically excluded from access to development capital in favor of other “grassroots for hire” organizations more amenable to the elite co-optation of grassroots empowerment—a process referred to as co-optation by cohort replacement. The article discusses implications of these findings for the study of urban development, participatory governance, and the changing social safety net.

The Impact

Bangladesh has been implementing social safety net programmes (SSNP) to protect vulnerable groups of people. Old Age Allowance (OAA) and Allowances for the Widows, Deserted & Destitute (AWDD) are two unconditional cash transfer programmes under the SSNP for vulnerable old age people and women, respectively. The impact of these programmes are examined in two upazilas (sub-districts) of the poorest district of Kurigram: Roumari upazila, which is comparatively better off, and Rajibpur upazila, which is the poorest. Natural disasters and remoteness are the reasons for this region’s vulnerability. In-depth interviews were conducted with twenty recipients to understand the implications of the allowance’s’ impact on their livelihoods. The findings reveal that the allowance contributes to necessary food consumption and acts as a coping mechanism during natural shocks. However, asset building and resource diversification are important to ensuring a sustainable livelihood. A small cash transfer is not enough for recipients to save and diversify their income growth. The allowance has minimal or no impact on the mediation of other capital assets like access to natural resources or social capital. Working-age recipients rely heavily on agricultural-based activities, but they do not own the land they farm. SSNP does not offer suitable cultivation practices, such as training that could fortify living capabilities or, sufficient resources to encourage career development. Additionally, a number of the beneficiaries are beyond working age. Aside from various factors like malpractice and usury, cash transfer systems have an adverse impact on OAA / AWDD, which reduces the value of allowances. The allowances from SSNPs provides a minimum support for survival but not enough to generate income and asset building capabilities. Hence, it is hard for beneficiaries to achieve a sustainable livelihood.
