Intergenerational influences on the receipt of unemployment insurance in Canada and Sweden / by Miles Corak, Bjorn Gustafsson and Torun Österberg. : CS11-0019/159E

The objective of this paper is to examine the extent to which an individual's use of unemployment insurance (UI) as a young adult is influenced by past experience with the program, and by having had a parent who also collected UI. A major methodological challenge is to determine the extent to which the intergenerational correlation of UI status is spurious or causal.--Abstract
