ON THE IMPACT OF LABOR MARKET MATCHING ON REGIONAL DISPARITIES*
构建了一个劳动力市场匹配不完美的模型，证明初始规模差异和主体流动性共同决定空间集聚，人力资本提升对区域差异的影响取决于其增强流动性还是专业化。
ABSTRACT We propose a model where imperfect matching between firms and workers on local labor markets leads to incentives for spatial agglomeration. We show that the occurrence of spatial agglomeration depends on initial size differences in terms of both number of workers and firms. Allowing for dynamics of workers' and firms' location choices, we show that the spatial outcome depends crucially on different dimensions of agents' mobility. The effect of a higher level of human capital on regional disparities depends on whether it makes workers more mobile or more specialized on the labor market.
