Insecurity on the Labor Market
探讨劳动力市场不安全感是否随时间增加,回顾衡量方法和潜在后果,发现证据并不一致支持劳动力市场变得更不安全的观点。
Abstract There is a common feeling that life has become more insecure over time. I here consider this proposition with respect to the labor market. I first discuss how labor‐market insecurity might be measured, and then its potential consequences for individuals. To answer the question of “What Happened,” I then review a number of pieces of evidence regarding developments in the labor market, and perhaps surprisingly find no consistent support for the proposition that the labor market has become significantly more insecure.
