In the first two chapters i study the consequences of the enactment of csls on education and fertility. I use a combination of a difference-in-difference (did) methodology with an identification strategy based on legislative borders to find that the laws increased enrollment by 7% and educational attainment by about 0.3 years of education over the long run. As for fertility, i find that csls imply a contemporaneous reduction in fertility of about 15%. In the long run, women that received compulsory education were expected to have approximately 0.15 to 0.3 fewer children. In the third chapter of this dissertation i look at the effect of clls on industrial performance. I find that industries that initially relied extensively on child labor suffered a significant reduction in growth as a consequence of the social legislation. I conjecture that the potentially sizable but narrowly concentrated effects of clls could explain why child labor is still common in the developing world today.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Datos
