dc.description.abstractThis paper provides new measures of government enforcement of labor regulations in Latin America and explores how it is affected by external and domestic factors. Using a panel of presidential terms in 18 Latin American countries between 1985 and 2009, I find that trade openness has a negative effect on inspection resources and activities, and that parties on the left of the political spectrum increase enforcement when they are in power. I also find that FDI penetration has a positive effect on inspection activities, but the relation is more imprecise.en_US
