"We forecast unemployment for the 176 German labour-market districts on a monthly basis. Because of their small size, strong spatial interdependencies exist between these regional units. To account for these as well as for the heterogeneity in the regional development over time, we apply...

'Was macht Gründungen aus Arbeitslosigkeit anders?' Um diese Frage zu beantworten, entwickeln wir einen theoretischen Ansatz für die Gründungsaktivität aus Arbeitslosigkeit. Weiterhin schätzen wir räumlich-autoregressive Modelle für die regionalen Gründungsraten aus Arbeitslosigkeit und...

In this paper we study the effect of small labor market entry cohorts on (un)employment in Western Germany. From a theoretical point of view, decreasing cohort sizes may on the one hand reduce unemployment due to inverse cohort crowding or on the other hand increase unemployment if companies...

In this paper we analyze the consequences of small labour-market entry cohorts on (un)employment in Western Germany. From a theoretical point of view, small entry cohorts may on the one hand reduce unemployment due to "inverse cohort crowding" or on the other hand increase unemployment if...

The geographical distribution and persistence of regional/local unemployment rates in heterogeneous economies (such as Germany) have been, in recent years, the subject of various theoretical and empirical studies. Several researchers have shown an interest in analysing the dynamic adjustment...
