摘要：Most economic research treats the household as a single agent assuming that individuals within the household share the same preferences or there is a household "head" who has the final say. This simple framework has proved immensely useful; despite a common misperception, it can explain many differences in well-being or consumption patterns within households. Nonetheless, recent empirical research demonstrates that this "unitary" household model is not appropriate in a variety of settings in both developed and developing countries.
