SUMMARY:Donald DAVIS  (Columbia) - "Labor Market Polarization and the Great Urban Divergence "
DESCRIPTION:Applied Micro seminar : Every Tuesday \nTime: 12:15 pm – 13:30 pm\nDate: 8 th of November 2022\nRoom : 3001 \nDonald DAVIS (Columbia) – “Labor Market Polarization and the Great Urban Divergence ” \nAbstract: Labor market polarization is one of the most important features in recent decades of advanced country labor markets. Yet key spatial aspects of this phenomenon remain under- explored. Is the polarization present in both small and large cities? Do middle-paid jobs de- cline most sharply in cities where those jobs were initially most present? How do observations on polarization concord with facts stressed in the literature on the great urban divergence?\nAre large and small cities losing the same types of middle-paid jobs? We develop four key facts addressing these questions for the case of France 1994-2015. We argue that no leading existing theory accounts well for these facts. We then develop a parsimonious theory that builds on existing models of routinization and offshoring\, as well as of heterogeneous labor in a spatial equilibrium of cities. To these we add a structured approach to how the interaction of skill and technology differs across sectors\, owing to individual- and city-level comparative advantage. The resulting theory does account for our four key facts. \nJoint work with : Eric Mengus et Tomasz Michalski (HEC Paris) \nOrganizers:\nBenoît SCHMUTZ (Pôle d’économie du CREST)\nRoland RATHELOT (Pôle d’économie du CREST)\nSponsors:\nCREST \n
