Recent work has examined the role of declines in wage growth among low-skilled workers on long term increases in joblessness in the U.S., the measurement of labor market flows in developed economies, the joint modeling of labor market flows over the business cycle and across firms, and the aggregate labor market effects of downward rigidity in wages.
