Objetives

 

This course will focus on macro-labor topics. It has three main goals: First, it aims to introduce students to basic search and matching models and how search frictions are introduced into models of …rm dynamics. Second, it will cover recent applications of search and matching frameworks and …rm dynamics to study questions on inequality and household decisions (joint labor supply, marriage, and fertility). Third, the covers will move beyond search friction and study other current topics on macro-labor, such as monopsonistic labor markets, local labor markets, and their macroeconomic implications.
