The question of whether migration can be an equilibrating force in the labour market is an important criterion for an optimal currency area. It is of particular interest currently in the context of high and rising levels of labour market disparities, in particular within the Eurozone where there...

Migration as an adjustment mechanism in the crisis? : a comparison of Europe and the United States 2006-2016

Jauer, Julia; Liebig, Thomas; Martin, John P.; Puhani, … - 2018

We estimate whether migration can be an equilibrating force in the labour market by comparing pre- and post-crisis migration movements at the regional level in both Europe and the United States, and their association with asymmetric labour market shocks. Based on fixed-effects regressions using...

Population adjustment to asymmetric labour market shocks in India : a comparison to Europe and the United States at two different regional levels

Braschke, Franziska; Puhani, Patrick A. - 2022

This paper uses Indian EUS-NSSO data on 32 states/union territories and 570 districts for a bi-annual panel with 5 waves to estimate how regional population reacts to asymmetric shocks. These shocks are measured by non-employment rates, unemployment rates, and wages in fixed-effects regressions...

Import competition and the great US employment sag of the 2000s

Acemoglu, Daron; Autor, David H.; Dorn, David; Hanson, … - 2015

Even before the Great Recession, U.S. employment growth was unimpressive. Between 2000 and 2007, the economy gave back the considerable employment gains achieved during the 1990s, with a historic contraction in manufacturing employment being a prime contributor to the slump. We estimate that...

-using U.S. manufacturing industries. There is some limited support for more rapid productivity growth in IT …-intensive industries depending on the exact measures, though not since the late 1990s. Most challenging to this paradigm, and our … expectations, is that output contracts in IT-intensive industries relative to the rest of manufacturing. Productivity increases …

On the persistence of the China shock

Autor, David H.; Dorn, David; Hanson, Gordon H. - 2021

We evaluate the duration of the China trade shock and its impact on a wide range of outcomes over the period 2000 to 2019. The shock plateaued in 2010, enabling analysis of its effects for nearly a decade past its culmination. Adverse impacts of import competition on manufacturing employment,...

Foreign competition and domestic innovation : evidence from U.S. patents

Autor, David H.; Dorn, David; Hanson, Gordon H.; … - 2019

Manufacturing accounts for more than three-quarters of U.S. corporate patents. The competitive shock to this sector emanating from China's economic ascent could in theory either augment or stifle U.S. innovation. Using three decades of U.S. patents matched to corporate owners, we quantify how...
