L'économie parallèle. Que savons-nous à ce sujet? Les impôts élevés ont-ils réellement contribué à la croissance de l'économie parallèle? Les femmes sont-elles plus susceptibles que les hommes de travailler dans le secteur informel (p. ex. la garde d'enfants, le nettoyage, le troc, les travailleuses du sexe, les travailleuses domestiques)?
