abstract: 'Labor markets are important, because most people, especially the poor,
derive all or the great bulk of their income from the work they do. This
paper approaches labor markets through multisector modeling.
The first main substantive section presents the essence of multisector
modeling, in particular, the role of labor market dualism. Given that
labor markets often consist of quite distinct segments, a useful and
insightful analytical approach is to start,with Just two interrelated
segments, formal and informal. Accordingly, the next sections present
models of wages and employment in the formal economy, the informal
economy, and intersectoral linkages respectively. The final substantive
section shows the contributions that these models make to understanding
and to policy analysis in labor markets.
It would not be expected that the same model would fit East Africa and
East Asia or South Africa and South Korea. Surely, the ``correct{''''}
model is context-specific. Blending empirical observation and analytical
modeling has yielded great advances. Sound labor market policies require
sound labor market models.'
