The Spanish labour market is characterised by high levels of unemployment, which have increased during the global …% of households being owner-occupiers. Both regional levels of unemployment and homeownership are known to be important … (2001 and 2011) to study the effect of homeownership and regional unemployment levels on both short and long distance …

monthly transitions among employment, unemployment, and nonparticipation. Immigrants are found to be first fired and first … hired over the business cycle, and the aggregate unemployment gap is caused by immigrants’ higher rates in the unemployment …

Ljungqvist and Sargent (2017) (LS) show that unemployment fluctuations can be understood in terms of a quantity they … understanding unemployment fluctuations. We show how the LS framework can be adapted to incorporate risk premia. We derive an … show how to use properties of the artificial economy to deduce how risk premia affect unemployment dynamics in the original …

Can governmental policies mitigate the effects of recessions on unemployment? We study whether the Swiss short …-time work (STW) program reduced unemployment in the 2009-2015 period using quarterly establishment-level panel data linking … several administrative data sources. We compare changes in permanent layoffs into unemployment, hiring from unemployment …

unemployment, this paper theoretically investigates the importance of labor market duality on labor market volatilities. The new … insight is that duality leads to a non-linear reaction of unemployment volatility for both supply and demand shocks. A … subsequent empirical panel data analysis confirms the model predictions. Uncovering the non-linearity in unemployment volatility …

We build an analytically and computationally tractable stochastic equilibrium model of unemployment in heterogeneous … countercyclical unemployment, and is simultaneously consistent with procyclical reallocation, countercyclical separations and a … negatively-sloped Beveridge curve. Moreover, the model exhibits unemployment duration dependence, which (when calibrated to long …
