Abstract

Panel Data and Structural Labour Market Models is the latest volume in a series of four, reporting on the original work of an international group of scholars with research interests in the performance of the labour markets that condition the dynamic labour market experiences of individual workers. The book contains papers focusing on theoretical and empirical modelling of the labour market covering both wage equilibrium models and models for labour market transition. Contributions range from the theoretical or econometric through empirical structural methods and exploratory data analysis based on employer and employee level data. Academic libraries, labour economists, labour and industrial relations research institutes and statistical agencies will find this a particularly useful piece of work.

Abstract

Les mondes du travail ont été touchés de plein fouet par la crise financière et économique initiée en 2008, comme par les réponses néolibérales, souvent radicales, qui lui ont été données : accélération de la désindustrialisation, montée du chômage, restructurations d’entreprises, déconstruction du droit du travail visant à flexibiliser les marchés du travail, montée des formes d’emploi dégradées, affaiblissement de la protection sociale, intensification du travail, baisses de salaires, extension de la pauvreté laborieuse et des politiques de workfare. En Europe, les pays du sud (Grèce, Espagne, …), en ont subi les formes les plus violentes. La crise économique participe de bien d’autres crises. Ce livre, nourri par les XV es Journées internationales de sociologie du travail tenues à Athènes, s’interroge sur la pertinence de la notion de crise(s) et explore les liens entre crise(s) et mondes du travail : quelles sont leurs implications sur le salariat, sur le vécu des travailleurs et des demandeurs d’emploi, et sur les politiques publiques ? En quoi interpellent-elles les objets et les paradigmes de la sociologie et de la sociologie du travail ? Les responsabilités sociales de la discipline n’en sont-elles pas accentuées ?

Abstract

This volume evaluates some of the key dimensions of human development and growth. It provides eight exceptional papers from the second World Bank Economists' Forum held in May 2001 in Washington, DC. These papers were selected from among the 46 papers presented at the Forum. Many of those selected concentrate on the issues surrounding "empowerment." The focus is upon ensuring that poor people have the education, health care, social protection, and other mechanisms necessary for them to participate in economic growth and social development.

Abstract

High and persistent unemployment was experienced by most developed countries during the 1980s and inflationary pressures emerged at rates of unemployment far higher than those experienced in the 1960s and 1970s. This suggests that there was an increase in the natural rate of unemployment. Many researchers have sought to explain this development in terms of 'mismatch', arguing that the economies that have suffered most from persistently high unemployment are those that have been least flexible in matching their unemployed with the available employment opportunities. The contributors to this volume examine the evidence on sectoral wage differentials, labour mobility and the ratio of unemployment to job vacancies, in detailed studies of seven countries with a wide variety of labour market and macro-economic structures. They analyse the variations in unemployment rates across regions, occupations and demographic groups and investigate whether these help to explain the growth and persistence of unemployment. The volume also includes a cross-country study of skills mismatch in relation to the effectiveness of training programmes.
