congestion effect. I use monthly panel data for all local labor markets in Sweden from 1992-2011. The results suggest that … unemployment has a weak positive effect on the probability of filling a vacancy, while the number of vacancies in the local labor …

spirit of Blanchard and Summers (1988), the model can generate multiple equilibria, with a low-quits/high-unemployment … equilibrium coexisting with a high-quits/low-unemployment equilibrium. Under weak conditions, low-unemployment equilibria Pareto … dominate high-unemployment equilibria. Mobility premia improve aggregate welfare but may increase unemployment. …

This paper studies the consequences of creative destruction on unemployment in a frictional labor market with on …-the-job search. For a benchmark calibration, a 1% increase in growth raises the unemployment rate by 1.72 percentage points in the … unemployment through more frequent job separations, in the presence of on-the-job search, creative destruction induces a direct …

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 … negativelysloped Beveridge curve. Moreover, the model exhibits unemployment duration dependence, which (when calibrated to long …

In this model three different types of unemployment arise: search, rest and … reallocation unemployment. We document new evidence on unemployed workers’ gross occupational mobility and use it to calibrate the …
