This study extends Goodwin’s growth cycle model by considering low- and high- skilled workers. Using the parameters obtained from the Japanese economy data, we conduct numerical simulations to reproduce Japanese business cycles. We investigate how the introduction of the minimum wage share and...

Postwar data reveals significant co-movement between net firm entry and private consumption conditional on a government spending shock. We construct and estimate an equilibrium model that matches this observation both in a qualitative sense and with an eye towards replicating the quantitative...

In this paper the dynamic responses of labor markets to macroeconomic shocks in eight CEE countries are empirically analyzed in panel SVECM. Identification of shocks, interpreted as real wage, productivity, labor demand and supply shocks, is based on DSGE model with labor market explicitly...

Developing the National Strategy for Sustainable Development (SNDD) is the result of the obligation assumed by Romania, as a member of the European Union, in accordance with the objectives agreed at EU and methodological prescriptions of the European Commission. Defining element of this policy...

As asserted in standard literature, there is an implicit circular relationship between the productivity growth and the potential level of production (and, consequently, the estimation of the natural rate of unemployment is also altered). In order to avoid such emerging impediment in any...

This study investigates the effects of short-term employment contracts on employment fluctuations and economic fluctuations using a dynamic model with long-term and short-term employment contracts. Numerical experiments show that an increase in the short-term employment ratio amplifies the...

The effects of firing costs crucially depend on the extend to which the additional costs can be shifted to the worker, which refers to the so called "bonding critique". In the recent literature about firing costs, these costs are assumed to be a wasteful tax, such that they can not be shifted to...

In this paper we analyze a general equilibrium DSNK model characterized by labor indivisibilities, unemployment and a unionized labor market. The presence of monopoly unions introduces real wage rigidities in the model. We show that as in Blanchard Galì (2005) the so called "divine coincidence"...

This paper shows that a Nash equilibrium consisting of strategies of choosing a Pareto inefficient transition path is selected by households even without frictions as a result of the revealed government failure in supervision of financial markets. The Pareto inefficiency causes the generation of...
