abstract: 'Local labor markets are most flexible and aggregate natural unemployment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
is reduced when there is sufficient interregional economic migration to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ensure that workers are reallocated from declining to expanding regions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Local European labor markets have generally been viewed as not as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
flexible as those in North America, leading to greater fluctuations in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
local wages, labor force participation and unemployment rates, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
smaller changes in local employment as economic shocks are primarily
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
experienced by the local area''s original residents. France is an
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
interesting case. French gross migration rates-though perhaps relatively
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
low-are higher today than a generation ago. Using a host of novel
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
identification approaches and French employment zone data dating back to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the early 1980s, we investigate whether these changes correspond to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
economic migration that would increase labor market flexibility. Our
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
results detect surprising amounts of economic migration in that most new
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
jobs are eventually taken by new migrants or outside commuters. We then
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reconcile these somewhat surprising findings with the still relatively
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
low contemporary French interregional gross migration rates, concluding
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that other structural impediments besides relative local labor market
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inflexibility are behind relatively poor labor market performance. (C)
