The authors construct a simple general equilibrium model of unemployment and calibrate it to the Canadian economy. Job creation and destruction are endogenous. In this model, they consider several potential factors that could contribute to the long-run increase in the Canadian unempoloyment rate: a more generous unemployment insurance system, higher layoff costs, higher discretionary taxes, […]1998-10-06T08:55:03+00:00enCan a Matching Model Explain the Long-Run Increase in Canada's Unemployment Rate?1998-10-06Economic modelsFiscal policyLabour marketsWorking Paper 1998-19 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wp98-19.pdfCan a Matching Model Explain the Long-Run Increase in Canada's Unemployment Rate?Andreas HornsteinMingwei YuanOctober 1998EE2E6JJ4International Borrowing, Specialization and Unemployment in a Small, Open Economy

A small-open-economy model is developed to examine how the method of food aid disbursement affects labor employment, food security and aggregate welfare, in recipient countries, in an environment in which private sector firms pay efficiency wages to induce effort. Two forms of food aid delivery are considered: first is project food aid, under which food […]1998-01-04T15:13:08+00:00enFood Aid Delivery, Food Security and Aggregate Welfare in a Small Open Economy: Theory and Evidence1998-01-04Development economicsWorking Paper 1998-1 https://www.bankofcanada.ca/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/wp98-1.pdfFood Aid Delivery, Food Security and Aggregate Welfare in a Small Open Economy: Theory and EvidencePatrick OsakweJanuary 1998JJ4OO1QQ1
