Episode 6: Cruise Ships and Empowerment

Ryan McWay from the Institute for Social Research at the University of Michigan joins us to talk about how cruise ships can affect women in developing countries, including raising employment rates and education. Anna also highlights some of the data ICPSR holds about policing, use of force, and body cameras. A transcript is available for this episode (pdf).

This research is now published in an article in The American Economist: Cruising Through School: General Equilibrium Effects of Cruise Ship Arrivals on Employment and Education
