Labor Supply

1983
Labor Supply is a survey of and critical guide to recent theoretical and empirical work on labor supply models, both static and dynamic. The chapters on recent empirical studies and on dynamic models are of particular interest, because neither topic has so far been discussed in any detail in standard texts. Integrated within this survey is an extensive

International labor migration and domestic labor supply

Journal of Population Economics, 1992
"This paper constructs a dynamic, general equilibrium framework to study the relationship between international labor migration and domestic labor supply. The general equilibrium nature of the model enables us to endogenize the pattern of labor migration.

Labor Supply and Income Redistribution

The Review of Economics and Statistics, 1971
S ome recent papers have estimated labor supply functions for the "working poor." 1 All have a single objective: To estimate the labor force withdrawal effects of a negative income tax or related income program. The basic argument is simply that the increase in unearned income leads to an income reduction in the labor supply. This, because "leisure" is

The Supply of Labor

2017
The orderly Neoclassical graphs and utility functions used to derive labor supply curves assume the income/leisure substitution effect dominates household behavior even at low levels of income. Alternative behavioral-based observations, in contrast, imply that the income effect will dominate for people living in poverty and/or the presence of income ...

Labor-Force Participation Rates and the Supply of Labor

Journal of Political Economy, 1973
In studies of the labor supply function, alternative measures have been used for the quantity of labor supplied. Data are available now on weekly hours in a specific week, weekly hours in a "normal week," weeks worked during the year, and labor-force participation (measured generally on a weekly reference period).

The social context of the labor supply [PDF]

, 2007
In this paper we empirically investigate the relationship between social capital and the supply of labor. We identify social capital with non-market relationships. Data are obtained from the US General Social Survey for the period 1976-2004. We find evidence that social capital affects the supply of labor.

Collective Labor Supply and Welfare

Journal of Political Economy, 1992
The paper develops a general, "collective" model of household labor supply in which agents are characterized by their own (possibly altruistic) preferences, and household decisions are only assumed to be Pareto efficient. An alternative interpretation is that there are two stages in the internal decision process: agents first share nonlabor income ...

The Supply of Child Care Labor

Journal of Labor Economics, 1993
This article presents estimates of the elasticity of supply of labor to child care. This parameter is an important determinant of the effects of child care subsidies and regulations on the cost of child care. Using data from the Current Population Survey, there is evidence of an elasticity in the range of 1.2-1.9.

Douglas on Wages and the Supply of Labor

Journal of Political Economy, 1979
From 1918, when his first published article appeared, until his election to the Senate in 1948, Paul H. Douglas was a prolific contributor to economic literature. I shall not attempt to review all of his contributions here. The companion article by Paul Samuelson will cover his contributions to the theory of production, but even in the remaining area ...
