Biographical sketch: Dr Daniela Casale joined the School of Development Studies as a Senior Research Fellow in 2008. Her background is in economics, particularly in the fields of labour and household economics. She completed her Ph.D at the University of Natal in 2003 on the rise in female labour force participation in post-apartheid South Africa, in which she also explored how changing household structure and access to economic resources affect women’s labour market decisions. Some of the other topics she has worked on include internal labour migration; employment, unemployment and earnings in post-apartheid South Africa; and issues relating to the quality, design and analysis of household survey data. She is involved in ongoing research with other members of the School on the economic benefits and costs of marriage, an analysis of various labour market developments in post-apartheid South Africa, and the incidence of indirect taxation on women in South Africa.
