When You Can't Afford to Wait for a Job
Thiago Scarelli, David N Margolis et al.ARTICLEEconomic Development and Cultural…2025References: 52
Frictional labor markets impose a fundamental trade-off: individuals may work on their own at any time but can take a potentially better-paid wage job only after spending some time looking for it, suggesting that intertemporal considerations affect how people choose their occupation. We formalize this intuition under the job-search framework and show that a sufficiently high subjective discount rate can justify the choice for own-account work eve…

En utilisant les données de l’enquête « Génération 2004 » du CEREQ, nous présentons les différences entre les caractéristiques observables et les domaines de spécialisation entre ingénieurs et différents types de docteur et nous démontrons que la vitesse d’insertion des docteurs est plus lente que celle des ingénieurs. Cela s’…

“To Have and Have Not”
Open AccessDavid N Margolis, David Margolis et al.ARTICLEScandinavian Journal of Economics2015
In this paper, using an original survey, we analyze the distributional impact of international migration across two regions of Algeria. A semi‐parametric descriptive analysis is complemented with a parametric model. Remittances do not significantly change the Gini coefficient in nearly any of the counterfactual scenarios. However, migration reduced poverty by 40 percent, with different effects across regions for extreme poverty. Foreign transfers…

Politiques salariales et performances des entreprises
Open AccessJohn M Abowd, John Abowd et al.ARTICLEEconomie et Statistique /…2000Cited by: 2
La plupart des théories spécifiant le mode de détermination du salaire (salaire d’efficience, négociation salariale, etc.) apparues au cours des 20 dernières années cherchent à caractériser des situations éloignées du modèle de concurrence parfaite. Les tests empiriques de ces différentes théories se sont révélés jusqu’à présent peu concluants. L’absence de données caractérisant simultanément la situation des travailleurs et celle de l’entreprise…
