equilibrium model of wage dynamics and unemployment. The model is developed under the assumption of worker mobility, so that … Beaudry and DiNardo (1991). We solve for the dynamics of wages and unemployment, and show that real wages do not necessarily … to match actual unemployment and wage series. We also show that equal treatment follows in our model from the assumption …

In this model three different types of unemployment arise: search, rest and … reallocation unemployment. We document new evidence on unemployed workers’ gross occupational mobility and use it to calibrate the …

We present an overview of models of long-term self-enforcing labor contracts in which risk sharing is the dominant motive for contractual solutions. A base model is developed which is sufficiently general to encompass the two-agent problem central to most of the literature, including variable...

Making use of restrictions imposed by equilibrium, theoretical progress has been made on the nonparametric and semiparametric estimation and identification of scalar additive hedonic models (Ekeland, Heckman, and Nesheim, 2002) and scalar nonadditive hedonic models (Heckman, Matzkin, and...

In this paper we present simulations of economic performance of the Polish economy based on a quarterly econometric model. The model consists of 22 stochastic equations, which link the financial market with the real economy. The purpose of the research is to present effects of changes to...
