摘要
Most research in social science in general, and in the field of migration studies, in particular, encounters the problem of causality when assessing the impact of any variable of interest. The counterfactual approach solves the problems arising from non-random allocation of the populations under study to control and treatment groups. In this paper, we present the problems of analyzing the causal effects of remittances from the Global South in Paraguay, we propose a solution and estimates the impact on Paraguayan schooling. The main results highlight that there are no effects on investment in human capital and the potential of the propensity score analysis.
