PhD position summary/title: PhD Special Call: Labor Economics
Inequality, and the widening gap between rich and poor within developed countries, is a concern for society and should be addressed by policy makers (Mayhew and Wills, 2019). Income inequality depends both on the income shares of labor and capital and on wage dispersion. One key factor explaining inequality is lack of competition and monopoly power, both in the goods market and in the labor market. In this project, we focus on lack of competition in the labor market and how it can lead to observing similar workers earning different wages at different firms. It is not controversial that many aspects of labor markets are inherently imperfectly competitive: Either workers or firms can gain a rent from an existing employment relationship (Manning, 2010). These rents can come from two sources: The first is heterogeneity of workers (skills or preferences) and firms (productivity and non-wage job amenities); this is employer differentiation. The second source is lack of competition due to market concentration, i.e., the presence of few employers that dominate the labor market and can strategically interact to set wages below the marginal product of labor, employer concentration. The aim of this project is to contribute to the frontier of the growing literature incorporating different sources of market power in economic models of the labor market by developing new empirical methodologies to allow researchers to measure labor market power and its impact on income inequality. In the project, we combine theoretical models of the labor market and sophisticated quantitative methods
