This paper is devoted t.o an interpretation of both vacancy data and the Beveridgecurve. Officially reported vacancy data are critically reviewed. The theoretical foundation and empirical application of the Beveridge-curve is examined. We find that the Beveridge-curve is everything but a...

A dynamic model of the firm is worked out, which pays special attention to a delayed adjustment of employment, investment, and the production technology. A three-step decision structure is assumed, with short-run adjustment of output, medium-run adjustment of employment, and long-run adjustment...
