This paper explores the evidence for positive hysteresis in the labor market. Using data from the National Longitudinal … Surveys of Youth, we find that negative labor market outcomes during high-unemployment periods are mitigated by exposure to a …

This paper studies the dynamics of unemployment (u) and its natural rate (u*), with u* measured by real-time estimates … for 29 countries from the OECD. We find strong evidence of hysteresis: an innovation in u causes u* to change in the same …

It is thus commonly … puzzle is highly misleading, relying on the exogeneity of the forcing variable (e.g. output gap, marginal costs, unemployment …

In this paper, we identify demand shocks that can have a permanent effect on output through hysteresis effects. We call … employment and investment, although output per worker is largely unaffected. We find strong evidence that hysteresis transmits … through a rise in long-term unemployment and a decline in labor force participation and disproportionately affects the least …

We develop a growth model with unemployment due to imperfections in the labor market. In this model, wage inertia and … equilibrium paths. Hysteresis is viewed as the result of a selection between these different equilibrium paths. We use this model … of the 1970?s may have played a central role in generating hysteresis. …
