This paper examines the effects of the distribution of unemployment by duration on the level of unemployment. It …, the unemployment rate increases (decreases). By embodying this assumption in a standard equilibrium unemployment model we … characterize the joint behavior of unemploy- ment and the distribution of unemployment by duration.
