Carmel Chiswick on the effect of economic choices for religious traditions

In a video interview, IZA Fellow Carmel U. Chiswick (George Washington University) talks about the link between economic choices and religious traditions.

She states how economic incentives can be the context for religious traditions and what the economic choices are when you are born into a particular religion. Furthermore, Chiswick explains how international migration affects religious observance of migrants. Finally, she addresses the role of religious laws.
