[eng] A Long-Term Analytic Model of the Labour Market by Bernard Salanié . Several small-scale models have recently been built to study the long-term workings of the French labour market. The aim of this paper is to present just such a (very) small-scale model, which can be solved in closed...

[fre] Guide pratique des séries non-stationnaires par Bernard Salanié . L'objet de ce texte est de présenter les méthodes économétriques disponibles pour procéder à l'estimation et au test de systèmes comprenant des variables non-stationnaires, en insistant sur les contributions...

Stable matchings may fail to exist in the roommate matching problem, both when utility is transferable and when it is not. We show that when utility is transferable, the existence of a stable matching is restored when there is an even number of individuals of indistinguishable characteristics...

We investigate a model of one-to-one matching with transferable utility when some of the characteristics of the players are unobservable to the analyst. We allow for a wide class of distributions of unobserved heterogeneity, subject only to a separability assumption that generalizes Choo and...

We consider partial identification of finite mixture models in the presence of an observable source of variation in the mixture weights that leaves component distributions unchanged, as is the case in large classes of econometric models. We first show that when the number J of component...

SUMMARY While using financial incentives to increase fertility has become relatively common, the effects of such policies are difficult to assess. We propose an identification strategy that relies on the fact that the variation in wages induces variation in benefits and tax credits among...

Many econometric models can be analyzed as finite mixtures. We focus on two-component mixtures and we show that they are nonparametrically point identified by a combination of an exclusion restriction and tail restrictions. Our identification analysis suggests simple closed-form estimators of...
