The course is an introduction to the field of labor economics. The purpose of the course is to provide students with theoretical and empirical tools enabling them to develop a research project in labor economics. It provides a broad overview of theoretical models and empirical methods in the most traditional topics of labor economics, with a focus on labour market institutions and labour market policies. Topics to be covered in first part of the course include: labour supply and family coordination of time allocation, labour demand, minimum wages, labour market equilibrium, and wage structure. The second part of the course will focus on trade unions and bargaining, unemployment, unemployment insurance and active labour market policies. For each topic, theoretical contributions are proposed and compared to existing empirical evidence, in order to provide students interested in working on empirical analyses with a theoretical framework.
