International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.Abstract Segregation and social exclusion in postwar suburban housing estates are typically addressed as problems of residential location.

How Can Inflation Contracts Discipline Central Bankers When Agents Are Learning?
Bulletin of Economic Research, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper studies, in a new Keynesian model with a positive optimal output gap, how to design linear inflation contracts to shape the central bank's incentive structure when private expectations are based on adaptive learning.

The Unemployment‐Risk Channel in Business‐Cycle Fluctuations
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The unemployment‐risk channel (URC) amplifies an initial contraction through a reduction in consumption demand by workers who fear unemployment. Crucial for this are the dynamics of job separations and firm hiring. In US data, the job‐finding rate responds slower to identified macroeconomic shocks than the separation rate, but accounts for a ...

When in Doubt, Tax More Progressively? Uncertainty and Progressive Income Taxation
International Economic Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We study the optimal income tax problem under parameter uncertainty about household preferences and wage dynamics. We derive conditions characterizing how such uncertainty affects optimal tax policy. To quantify the effect, we estimate a life‐cycle model using US data and a Bayesian approach.
