Abstract
This paper uses retrospective earnings and work history data on a sample of Malaysian married couples to estimate the determinants of earnings and family labor supply. The sample data are merged with aggregate time series data on the Malaysian economy so that the effects of both individual and aggregate determinants of wage rates are explored. Dissaggregation of the analysis by cohort, education and race permits estimation of the differential impact of ecomomic development on different groups. The results syggest substantial variation in the extent of participation by different groups in the development process.
