Lukas Althoff (Stanford University) will speak about these results:
In the short run, we find that while white men saw substantial educational gains, Black veterans faced systemic exclusion, and women experienced negative spillovers. We then examine intergenerational effects using newly linked census, administrative tax, and real-time residential address data spanning 1940 to 2025. We document large disparities between the children of veterans versus non-veterans and identify causal spillovers using fathers’ age-based eligibility cutoffs. We find that in the long-run, veterans’ children attained significantly higher education, income, and homeownership, with the largest benefits for white sons and smaller but substantial gains for Black children. Our findings highlight that designing policies to be race-blind does not ensure that they are race-neutral.

You can combine search terms with and, or and/or not, e.g. Philo not logy.
You can use brackets to separate combinations from each other, e.g. (Philo not logy) or (Psycho and logy).
Coherent groups of words will be located as complete phrases if you put them into quotation marks, e.g. “Federal Republic of Germany”.
You can also use the advanced search without entering search terms. It will then follow the criteria you have selected (e.g. country or subject area).
If you have not selected any criteria in a given category, the entire category will be searched (e.g. all subject areas or all countries).
