Unemployment dynamics with international capital mobility
We study the response of domestic unemployment rates to shocks in total factor productivity for economies with high capital mobility and low labour mobility. We show that high capital mobility amplifies the impact on the domestic unemployment rate of domestic fluctuations in total factor productivity, shortens the lag of the response to shocks and raises the variability of unemployment. But ave...
متن کاملInternational Capital Mobility: Evidence from Panel Data
Krol (1996) reports estimates of the saving-investment correlation, based on panel regressions, that are much lower than commonly found in the literature. This note argues that this low estimate is not related to the panel estimation technique, as Krol claims, but largely to the inclusion of Luxembourg in the sample. Panel estimation only reduces the correlation’s estimate by about 0.12. Octobe...
متن کاملWage effects of labor migration with international capital mobility
This paper investigates short-run wage effects of immigration in a setting with international capital mobility. The latter eliminates two thirds of the native wage effects of immigration. Without international capital mobility, overall gains from migration in the immigration region are only a small fraction of total losses to native workers; with perfect international capital mobility overall g...
متن کاملOptimal time–consistent taxation with international mobility of capital
The United States relies for its government revenues more on the taxation of capital relative to the taxation of labor than countries in continental Europe do. In this paper we ask what can account for this. Our approach is to look at Markov perfect equilibria of a two– country growth model where both governments use labor, capital and corporate taxes to finance exogenously given streams of pub...
متن کاملPitfalls in the Theory of International Trade Policy: Concertina Reforms of Tariffs and Subsidies to High-technology Industries
This paper explores the links between international trade theory and the practice of trade and industrial policy in open economies, with special attention to three areas where theoretical lessons have been misunderstood in policy debates. I argue that the ‘concertina rule’ for tariff reform justifies reductions in high tariffs, but not moves towards uniformity, and particularly not increases in...
