Effects of Low-Skilled Immigration on U.S. Natives: Evidence from Hurricane Mitch

Levin, Andrew Theo; Blanchflower, David G. - National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER) - 2015

In the wake of a severe recession and a sluggish recovery, labor market slack cannot be gauged solely in terms of the conventional measure of the unemployment rate (that is, the number of individuals who are not working at all and actively searching for a job). Rather, assessments of the...

Ebell, Monique - Centre for Economic Performance, LSE - 2008

This paper considers a real business cycle model with search frictions in the labor market and labor supply which is elastic along the participation margin. Previous authors have found that such models generate counterfactually procyclical unemployment and a positively-sloped Beveridge curve....
