Prospects in the Academic Labor Market for Economists
预测了未来经济学家学术劳动力市场的趋势,包括博士生产变化、非终身教职增长及公私高校薪酬差距扩大,对经济学博士生和高校管理者有参考价值。
This paper discussed what the academic labor market for economists is likely to look like in the years ahead. After tracing out trends in PhD production of new economists, including the increasing share of new PhDs who are foreign residents, it presents new evidence on the growing use of part-time and full-time non tenure-track faculty in U.S. economics departments, the growing salary differentials between economists employed at private and public doctoral universities, and how economists' salaries have changed relative to those of faculty in other disciplines.
