Oliver Claas

Essays on Wage Bargaining in Dynamic Macroeconomics

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book addresses collective bargaining in an intertemporal monetary macroeconomy of the aggregate supply-aggregate demand (AS-AD) type with overlapping generations of consumers and with a public sector. The results are presented in a unified framework with a commodity market that clears competitively. By analyzing the implications of three variants of collective bargaining - efficient bargaining in a uniform and a segmented labor market and "right-to-manage" wage bargaining - it identifies the quantity of money, price expectations, union power, and union size as the determinants of temporary equilibria. In the three scenarios, it characterizes and compares the temporary equilibria using both analytical and numerical techniques, with an emphasis on allocations, welfare, and efficiency. It also discusses the dynamic evolution under rational expectations and its steady states in nominal and real terms. Lastly, it demonstrates conditions for stability regarding a balanced monetaryexpansion of the economy.

Rezensionen

"The impact of collective bargaining require an analysis of the interacting markets on macroeconomic level. This macroeconomic effects are studied in this book. Oliver Claas has been written a truly exceptional, inspiring and beautiful masterpiece." (Rózsa Horváth-Bokor, zbMATH 1494.91001, 2022)
