Description: This book provides an overview and assessment of various
theoretical approaches in macroeconomics that focus on wage
rigidities and involuntary unemployment. It offers an analysis of
the microeconomic foundations of rigid wages and considers their
implications for public policy. It reports new findings concerning
the theory of fix-price temporary equilibria, and provides an
analysis of the micro-foundations of inefficiencies in the labor
market such as risk-sharing mechanisms, union behavior and
efficiency wage models.
