Persyn, Damiaan - 2020
I argue in this paper that the estimation of wage curves and NAWRUs at the country level suffers from spatial aggregation bias. Using European data for the years 2000-2017, I find steeper country level wage curves and higher NAWRUs, compared to estimating at the underlying regional level. The...

Equilibrium Wage Arrears: A Theoretical and Empirical Analysis of Institutional Lock-In
Earle, John S.; Sabirianova, Klara Z. - 2000
