This paper provides a simple matching model in which unemployed workers and employers can be matched together through social networks and through more efficient, and also more costly, methods. In this framework, decentralized decisions to utilize social networks in the job search process can be...

We provide a matching model where identical workers are embedded in ex-ante identical social networks. Job arrival rate is endogenous and wages are bargained. We study the evolution of networks over time and characterize the equilibrium distribution of unemployment rates across networks. We...

[fre] Si les mouvements migratoires de population ne sont pas déterminants pour les projections démographiques nationales, il n'en est pas de même lorsque cet exercice s'applique à une région ou un bassin d'emploi, espaces dont la démographie est influencée par les mouvements avec le...
