Les évolutions qui ont caractérisé le marché du travail se sont traduites par de substantielles modifications de la composition des revenus des ménages et ont pu affecter l'inégalité de la répartition de ces revenus. Notre objectif est d'analyser l'évolution de la contribution des...

Le ralentissement des gains de productivité par tête observé depuis la fin des années 80 en Europe, et notamment en France, est susceptible de plusieurs types d'interprétations. Il pourrait refléter un tassement des gains de la productivité globale des facteurs, une substitution des...

Cet article propose un processus de détermination explicite des allocations de chômage dans un modèle dynamique de négociations salariales. Nous supposons que celles-ci sont déterminées au niveau centralisé en prenant en compte leur impact sur les salaires et sur le taux de chômage. Nous...

We consider a two-country model of wage determination with private information in unionized imperfectly competitive industries. We investigate the effects of separated product markets opening up for competition as well as of further market integration on the negociated wage and the maximum delay...

We study the endogenous formation of networks between manufacturers of differentiated goods and multi-product retailers who interact in a successive duopoly. Joint consent is needed to establish and/or maintain a costly link between a manufacturer and a retailer. We find that only three...

The standard efficient contract involving a monopolistic firm and a union has always been derived under the assumption that the firm operates efficiently, i.e. it uses fully its labor force. However, nothing constrains the firm to do so and production with under-utilization of labor may actually...

Within an incomplete information framework, we develop a model of wage determination in a unionized Cournot oligopoly. The assumption of incomplete information allows the possibility of strikes, which waste industry potential ressources, at equilibrium. Facing such deadweight loss, the...

In this paper, I discriminate among alternative models of bargaining for wages and employment (right-to-manage, efficient bargaining and general bargaining models) using Belgian aggregate data. I estimate the ECM representation of a dynamic employment equation for each model using...

We develop a model of wage determination with private information in a unionized imperfectly competitive industry. Under two different bargaining structures (firm-level vs industry-level), we investigate the effects of the degree of product differentiation and the type of market competition...

We develop a two-person negotiation model with complete information which makes endogenous both the deadline and the level of surplus destruction after the deadline. We show that the equilibrium outcome is always unique but might be inefficient. Moreover, as the bargaining period becomes short...
