EMPLOYMENT CYCLES AND PROCESS INNOVATION IN REGIONAL STRUCTURAL CHANGE*
研究了区域就业周期、技能劳动力需求与流程创新在产业产品周期中的关系,发现内生技术变革导致的就业波动通过资本迁移和劳动空间分工推动生产设施的空间分散。
ABSTRACT Regional employment cycles, the demand for skilled and unskilled labor, and process innovations are analyzed in the context of an industry product cycle. Employment fluctuations caused by endogenous technological change lead to spatial decentralization of production facilities through capital relocation and spatial divisions of labor. A capital investment profile suggested by the product cycle scenario is related to employment cycles. A price system for output is outlined in terms of wages and profits over the product cycle.
