Labor force diversity and firm survival
We analyze the influence that the diversity of individuals, both within a firm and in the region where the firm is located, has on firm survival. We estimate a hazard model using microdata for Swedish firms for the years 2002–2013. Results show that firm‐specific diversity in education, age, and gender are positively associated with firm survival. However, firm‐specific diversity by place of origin is negatively associated with firm survival. Yet…
Cities, regions and the decline of transport costs
The theoretical framework of urban and regional economics is built on transportation costs for manufactured goods. But over the twentieth century, the costs of moving these good have declined by over 90% in real terms, and there is little reason to doubt that this decline will continue. Moreover, technological change has eliminated the importance of fixed infrastructure transport (rail and water) that played a critical role in creating natural ur…

The impact of toxic waste sites on housing values
Löschian Spatial Competition and the Related Labor Market
A single-good Löschian model of spatial pricing is expanded to incorporate elements of the related input market. Technical change in the labor sector induces the entry of new firms. Short-run and long-run impacts of technical change on the spatial product and spatial labor markets are analyzed. The so-called 'perverse effect' of spatial competition remains intact in this expanded model under certain conditions. Moreover the labor market is likely…
The Earnings of Soviet Workers
Micro data gathered by the Soviet Interview Project provide one of the first opp ortunities for Western researchers to investigate the determinants of Soviet earnings. The data show that Soviet labor markets operate in many respects like U.S. labor markets, yet institutional differences remain. The most striking institutional impact is that Soviet workers are rewarded and penalized for political behavior external to the firm. As in the U.S., educ…
Labor Supply and Housing Demand for One- and Two-Earner Households
The jointness of labor and housing decisions is explicitly modelled in a consumer demand framework. Behavior of seven demographic groups differentiated by marital status, employment status and the presence of children is estimated from a micro data set. Results indicate that (1) decisions regarding work hours and housing consumption are interdependent choices and (2) responses to market signals differ significantly by demographic group. Results a…
