Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • World War II
  • Law
  • Social science

Robert A. Margo mostly deals with Census, Labour economics, Spanish Civil War, Wage and Demographic economics. His studies in Census integrate themes in fields like Socioeconomic status, Racial differences and Race. His work on Labor demand as part of general Labour economics research is often related to Perspective, High skill and Polarization, thus linking different fields of science.

His Spanish Civil War study deals with Economy intersecting with Financial services and Annual percentage rate. When carried out as part of a general Wage research project, his work on Real wages and Wage dispersion is frequently linked to work in Differential, Steam power and Intensity, therefore connecting diverse disciplines of study. His study in Demographic economics is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Developed country, Suburbanization and Suburban Population.

His most cited work include:

  • The Great Compression: The Wage Structure in the United States at Mid-Century (501 citations)
  • Women's Work? (362 citations)
