Résumé anglais Economic Analysis of the Increase in the Women's Jobs Supply : Application to Columbian Data, by Thierry Magnac. This paper sets out the findings of the micro-economic models on jobs occupied by women applied to surveys taken over the 1980-1985 period in an urban enyironment in Columbia. This set of explanatory variables includes the usual human capital variables as well as a complete set of family make-up variables in an attempt to capture substitutions between members of one family. The model is used to show that 30 % of the increase in jobs occupied by women over the 1980-1985 period is due to the lower fertility rate and the higher level of education of the average woman.
