The role of capital accumulation as a driver of the labor income share requires capital and labor to be substitutes …, which appears paradoxical in a world predominantly characterized by complementarity between capital and labor. This paper … argues that the composition of skills in the labor force and an identification of the elasticity parameters between capital …

The accumulation principle suggests that complementarity between capital and labor forces the labor income share to … rise in the presence of capital accumulation. The CES model estimates using data from 20 Japanese industries between 1970 … as a non-linear function of the Weibull distribution of capital-labor ratio. Empirical findings support the choice of a …

The elasticity of substitution between capital and labor (σ) is usually considered a "deep parameter". This paper shows … substitution between capital and labor is below unity; that it increases along with the degree of globalization; but it decreases … enhances the substitutability between capital and labor. We also find evidence of a non-significant impact of the capital …

This paper estimates the elasticity of substitution between capital and skill using variation across U.S. counties in … immigration-induced skill-mix changes between 1860 and 1930. We find that capital began as a q-complement for skilled and … parametric production function calibrated to our estimates imply the level of capital-skill complementarity after 1890 likely …

particular, capital-skill complementarity represents a source of relative skill-bias while SETI provides an absolute skill …
