Trade and long-term unemployment: A quantitative assessment
We develop a multi-country, multi-sector, gravity model with trade frictions in the wake of Eaton and Kortum (2002) and Costinot, Donaldson and Komunjer (2012), which allows for labour market frictions as per Diamond-Mortensen-Pissarides and long-term equilibrium unemployment level as in Helpman and Itskhoki (2010). We find that trade liberalisation may lead to a rise in unemployment...

Discrete choice pseudo panel data models
Les données de panel sont aujourd'hui d'une importance capitale dans l'analyse du comportement des micro-unités. Or dans beaucoup de pays, ces données n'existent pas encore. A la place, les chercheurs peuvent utiliser des enquêtes répétées. Dans un pareil cas, vu l'impossibilité de suivre la même unité dans le temps, on passe au niveau cohorte tout en...
