Resumo: Interest in research and economic analysis related to child labor reappears in the literature around 1995, mainly due to a growing emphasis on the reduction of poverty and the accumulation of human capital to obtain economic development, which means that child labor is seen as an impediment to economic progress. Empirical analysis to find the causes, consequences and solutions for child labor are now being facilitated by the increase in the availability of high quality microdata and ease of obtaining computational data. Poverty, parents’ education, family composition, gender of the head of the household, age parents started working and the household location are the most analyzed and important determinants to explain the allocation of the child’s time to work. The most important social-economic consequences of child labor are related to the reduction in years of education, school performance, wages and health status. The objective of this study is to present a summary of what is known in the economic literature related to child labor and to indicate directions for future research.

As análises empíricas visando obter as causas, conseqüências e soluções para o trabalho infantil estão agora  sendo facilitadas pelo aumento da disponibilidade de microdados e pelas facilidades computacionais  disponíveis. A pobreza, a escolaridade dos pais, o tamanho e a estrutura da família, o sexo do chefe, idade em que os pais começaram a trabalhar e o local de residência são os determinantes mais analisados e dos mais importantes para explicar a alocação do tempo da criança para o trabalho. As principais conseqüências socioeconômicas do trabalho de crianças e de adolescentes são sobre a educação, o salário e a saúde dos indivíduos. Este estudo tem como objetivo apresentar, de forma resumida, o que se conhece na literatura econômica sobre trabalho infantil e indicar direções para futuros estudos.Departamento de Ciências Econômicas da UFMG2009-06-05info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/article/view/490Nova Economia; Vol. 17 No. 2 (2007)Nova Economia; v. 17 n. 2 (2007)1980-53810103-6351reponame:Nova Economia (Online)instname:Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)instacron:UFMGporhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/article/view/490/485Kassouf, Ana Lúciainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2020-08-11T04:27:57Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/490Revistahttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomiaPUBhttps://revistas.face.ufmg.br/index.php/novaeconomia/oai||ne@face.ufmg.br1980-53810103-6351opendoar:2020-08-11T04:27:57Nova Economia (Online) - Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais (UFMG)false
