講義概要/Course description
|
|
This is the second half of the International Labor sequence. In this course, we study the labor market equilibrium and various reasons of labor market failure. The typical topics include; Why do people participate in the labor market? What factors determine the employment size? How does the interaction of workers' willingness to work and firms' wanting to hire workers determine the wage distribution? How do they affect the labor market equilibrium? What causes unemployment? How valuable is education? Why do seemingly identical workers receive different wages? Which public policies are most likely to alleviate poverty? How can we identify discrimination in the labor market?
