We build an analytically and computationally tractable stochastic equilibrium model of unemployment in heterogeneous … countercyclical unemployment, and is simultaneously consistent with procyclical reallocation, countercyclical separations and a … negatively-sloped Beveridge curve. Moreover, the model exhibits unemployment duration dependence, which (when calibrated to long …

This paper identifies a data-consistent, equilibrium model of unemployment, wage dispersion, quit turnover and firm … firm growth rates depend on firm productivity but not on firm size. Aggregate unemployment evolves endogenously …

In this paper we study the separate effects of unemployment and job displace- ment on fertility in a sample of white … collar women in Austria. Using an instru- mental variables approach we show that unemployment incidence as such has no … so irrespective of the incidence or the duration of the associated unemployment spell. …
