Building upon a multisectoral framework in light of the Kuznetsian paradigm, this paper analyses the relationship between structural transformation and income inequality. Empirical evidence is drawn using a large census dataset consisting of more than 22 million individuals from Mexico and the...

This paper uses the Brexit referendum in 2016 as a quasi-natural experiment to estimate the effect of an exogenous negative shock to globalization on executive compensation for German companies listed in the DAX and MDAX stock indices. We show that it matters whether they work for firms...

With the reconfiguration of international supply chains, Mexico has gained importance as a location for new foreign investments. The country has been able to benefit from nearshoring, that is, the relocation of services or production processes closer to consumer markets. This is associated with...

We revisit the iconic Kuznets (1955) paper, which postulated a clear positive relationship between inequality and economic development in the early stages of structural transformation. Using a newly released global dataset on income inequality-the WIID Companion-we set out the stylized facts of...

This paper develops an econometric framework for identifying latent factors that provide real-time estimates of supply and demand conditions shaping goods- and services-related price pressures in the U.S. economy. The factors are estimated using category-specific personal consumption...

The speed of both the rise and fall of US inflation in 2021–23 took many economists by surprise. This paper shows that the rise of COVID era inflation reflects three independent shocks: a plethora of pandemic-related shifts in demand patterns and supply disruptions; the largest commodity price...

Der Beitrag untersucht anhand der Unternehmensstrukturstatistik die Unterschiede der Arbeitsproduktivität zwischen und innerhalb von Wirtschaftsbereichen. Dazu werden zunächst verschiedene Messkonzepte auf Output- und Inputseite diskutiert. Weiteres Thema sind die Auswirkungen der...
