Unemployment and Unemployability
The American Journal of Economics and Sociology, 1948THE INTER-RELATIONSHIP between the amount of unemployment and standards of unemployability has long been recognized but inadequately discussed in texts and non-technical books.

The Effect of Unemployment Insurance on Unemployment Duration

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2010 We examine the impact of job loss on entrepreneurship behavior in Norway. Our identification strategy relies on the use of mass layoffs caused by bankruptcies as indicators of exogenous displacement.

Unemployment Insurance and Unemployment Dynamics
The Canadian Journal of Economics, 1991One of the puzzling features of the recent behavior of the Canadian unemployment rate is its persistence in the presence of a sustained expansion in real national income. Neither deficient aggregate demand nor a once-for-all, supply-side-induced increase in the natural rate provides a convincing explanation of this phenomenon.

Unemployment Insurance, Taxes, and Unemployment
The Canadian Journal of Economics, 1987Unemployment insurance is financed by a tax on wages below a given ceiling. Daniel S. Hamermesh (1977) advocates raising this ceiling on distributional grounds. In a job-search model, this does decrease unemployment among low-wage workers, but also increases unemployment among high-wage workers, and lowers everyone's expected after-tax wage.
