We set up a model with search and matching frictions to understand the effects of employment and wage policies, as well … as nepotism in hiring in the public sector, on unemployment and rent seeking. Conditional on inefficiently high public …-sector wages, more nepotism in public-sector hiring lowers the unemployment rate because it limits the size of queues for public …

Search-matching theory has come to dominate labor economics in recent years, but few attempts have been made to compare … the empirical relevance of search-matching theory to efficiency wage and bargaining theories, where employment is … determined by labor demand. In this paper we formulate an empirical equation for net job creation, which encompasses search-matching …
