Title:The effect of job-polarizing skill demands on the US wage structure Author(s):KANTENGA, Kory
Date:2018Type:Working PaperSeries/Number:EUI MWP; 2018/03Abstract:I present a quantitative model which accounts for changes in occupational wages, occupational
employment shares, and the overall wage distribution. The model reproduces numerous aspects of US
cross sectional data observed ...

Title:Democratic reform and opposition to government expenditure : evidence from nineteenth-century Britain Author(s):CHAPMAN, JonathanDate:2016Type:Working PaperSeries/Number:EUI MWP; 2016/21Abstract:Several theories have argued that democratic reform will lead to higher government spending. However, these theories have generally focused on expenditure on redistribution rather than expenditure on public goods. This ...

Title:Continuous spatial monopolistic competition : matching goods with consumers Author(s):GORYUNOV, Maxim; KOKOVIN, Sergey; TABUCHI, TakatoshiDate:2018Type:Working PaperSeries/Number:EUI MWP; 2018/01Abstract:Our new approach enriches the general additive monopolistic competition model (AMCM) with a space of product characteristics: consumers' “ideal varieties''. Unlike Hotelling, such partially localized competition involves ...

Title:Sorting when firms have size Author(s):GORYUNOV, MaximDate:2017Type:Working PaperSeries/Number:EUI MWP; 2017/09Abstract:In this paper, I study the sorting of workers to firms, when firm size is explicitly taken into account. I develop a method to non-parametrically identify the match production function from data on workers' wages and firms' ...

Title:Contracting with type-dependent naïveté Author(s):FOSCHI, MatteoDate:2017Type:Working PaperSeries/Number:EUI MWP; 2017/04Abstract:I analyse the optimal contracting behaviour of an employer who faces workers with different, incorrect beliefs about their productivity (naïve workers). Researchers in contract theory have analysed cases where the principal ...

; PAPPA, EviDate:2017Type:Working PaperSeries/Number:EUI MWP; 2017/13Abstract:This paper analyzes jointly the effects of monetary and fiscal policy shocks in the US economy using a factor augmented vector autoregressive model with drifting coefficients and stochastic volatility. The time varying ...
