Unemployment Persistence and Mismatch
Author: Raquel Fonseca
Publisher: Presses univ. de Louvain
ISBN: 9782930344089
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 208
Book Description
Since the mid-1970s Spain has suffered from persistently high unemployment, as it has occurred in other parts of Europe. Although during the last few years the unemployment level has declined, there are still enormous disparities in the unemployment rate across groups, skills and regions. This thesis attempts to shed some light on the mechanisms of unemployment persistence and skill and regional mismatch in Spain. Chapter 1 provides a first introductory analysis of Spanish data. The chapter emphasises the importance of skill and regional mismatch, which may have contributed about fifty percent to the observed increase in total unemployment over the last twenty years. The chapter also studies the cyclical pattern in the Spanish unemployment, which is a very important aspect in view of its magnitude. The following three chapters are devoted to the evaluation of different mechanisms that may have been at work. In all three chapters, the analysis relies on the specification, calibration and simulation of dynamic general equilibrium models with matching on the labour market. Chapter 2 focuses on cyclical fluctuations, with particular emphasis on the role of reallocation shocks. Chapter 3 focuses on « skill mismatch »; more precisely the chapter investigates to what extent unemployment rate disparities across skill groups can be explained in terms of a « ladder effect ». Chapter 4 focuses on regional disparities. A model is built to investigate the possible determinants of regional disparities and the role of labour mobility.

Economic Growth, Transition, and Globalization in China
Author: Yanrui Wu
Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN: 9781781959152
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 264
Book Description
This book addresses a number of important topics and issues associated with China's economic transition, growth and global integration. The chapters, by a distinguished group of scholars, provide a timely assessment of recent developments in the Chinese economy. The authors employ contemporary economic theory and the latest statistics to analyze the sources and spillover effects of China's growth, to investigate the relationship between growth and business cycle, and to shed light on China's growth prospects in the coming decade. In the context of growth, transition and globalization, the chapters also cover issues such as labour economics, urban efficiency, banking and macroeconomic management. Economic Growth, Transition and Globalization in China is a highly focused and unique work of direct policy relevance and is aimed at an international audience. It is an invaluable combination of rigorous theoretical work and empirical material. This timely book should be an important reference for researchers and students of Asian studies, and the Chinese economy, in particular. It will also appeal to business analysts.

Notes on Time Series Analysis, ARIMA Models and Signal Extraction
Author: Regina Kaiser
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Business cycles
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
El objetivo de este trabajo es proporcionar una introduccion informal a las herramientas del analisis de series temporales y a los conceptos necesarios para comprender la metodologia basica en la que se fundamenta la aplicacion de filtros. El trabajo esta dirigido a analistas en general que realicen trabajos aplicados en este campo, pero que no hayan cursado un modulo avanzado de analisis aplicado de series temporales. Se ha puesto especial enfasis en el metodo basado en modelos, aunque gran parte del material tambien puede aplicarse al uso de filtros 'ad-hoc'. La estructura basica consiste en modelizar la serie como un proceso estocastico lineal y estimar los componentes mediante la 'extraccion de una señal', es decir, mediante la estimacion optima de componentes generados por modelos estadisticos bien definidos.(am) (ad).
