Exporting and labor demand : micro-level evidence from Germany
Lichter, Andreas; Peichl, Andreas; Siegloch, Sebastian - 2014
It is widely believed that globalization affects the extent of employment and wage responses to economic shocks. To provide evidence for this, we analyze the effect of firms' exporting behavior on the elasticity of labor demand. Using rich, German administrative linked employer-employee panel...
