	IZA - In Memoriam: Jacob Mincer (1922-2006)
		Mincer was born in Poland in 1922 and at the youthful age of 16 entered a Technical University in Brno, Czechoslovakia (Mincer, no date).
		Mincer has said that his interest in female labor supply, and his insights on it, was influenced by his wife’s career, and her movement in and out of the labor force in response to changes in the value of her time in home production and in the labor market.
		Ironically, Mincer found that he had to retire two years earlier than the mandatory retirement age because as a precocious child his parents had to declare his age as seven for him to be admitted to school when he was only five years old.

		Mincer's model, drawing on data from the 1950 and 1960 censuses, was the first to relate income distribution in America to the varying amounts of education and on-the-job training among workers.

		An often forgotten result obtained by Mincer in his landmark study of the returns to education is that in a regression of log annual earnings on education and education interacted with age (or potential experience) the interaction term is significant and negative.
		To the extent that school quality and years of schooling are substitutes, one would expect the same declining impact with worker s age to occur for school quality.

	L'économie sans tabou: In memoriam Jacob Mincer
		Mon collègue Jacob Mincer, qui vient de mourir à 84 ans, avait émigré de Pologne en 1948.
		Il a également lancé les études empiriques en estimant ce qui est devenu l'"équation de Mincer" : elle explique le salaire d'une personne à partir de son niveau d´éducation, de son expérience, de son ancienneté dans l'entreprise...
		Dans le cas de Mincer, il faudrait aussi citer les noms des collègues et élèves qui l'ont suivi ou accompagné sur ce chemin, comme Gary Becker et Jim Heckman, et les très nombreux économistes moins connus du grand public qui se sont formés dans son célèbre séminaire d'économie du travail.

	Jacob Mincer and Labor Supply–Before and Aftermath
		This paper discusses the impact that Jacob Mincer's 1962 paper “Labor-Force Participation of Married Women...” had on the analysis and empirical estimation of the labor supply of married women, and the supply of labor in general.
		Mincer combined a theoretical model distinguishing between three uses of time (leisure, work at home, and work in the market) and Friedman's distinction between permanent and transitory earning.
		The interplay between theory, data, and empirical estimation, and the ingenuity of the empirical research using scant data sources, made this paper the object of emulation.
