If the economy is totally characterized by the presence of low-quality job matches, an increase in ...

The presence of future innovations that will replace current...

There are two sectors: a stagnant sector, where productivity does not change over time, and a progressive sector, where costs decrease over time due to exogenous technological progress. We consider a conjectural variation approach to com...
