In the context of a standard equilibrium matching framework, this paper considers how a duration dependent unemployment insurance (UI) system affects the dynamics of unemployment and wages in an economy subject to stochastic job-destruction shocks. It establishes that re-entitlement e¤ects induced by a …nite duration UI program generate intertemporal transfers from …rms that hire in future boom...

INTRODUCTION Diarrheal disease is a leading cause of child mortality globally, and rotavirus is responsible for more than a third of those deaths. Despite substantial decreases, the number of rotavirus deaths in children under five was 215,000 per year in 2013. Of these deaths, approximately 41% occurred in Asia and 3% of those in Bangladesh. While Bangladesh has yet to introduce rotavirus vacc...

In the context of a standard equilibrium matching framework, this paper shows how a duration dependent unemployment insurance (UI) system stabilises unemployment levels over the business cycle. It establishes that reentitlement effects induced by a finite duration UI program generate intertemporal tranfers from firms that hire in future booms to firms that hire in current recessions. These tran...

The aim of this study is to investigate the association of vaccine subsidies and caregivers' socioeconomic status with varicella vaccine coverage of their children in Greater Tokyo, Japan, before the period that varicella vaccination was included in routine im...

There is an ongoing debate among energy experts on how providing a subsidy for one energy source affects the investment in other sources. To explore this issue, we study capacity investments of a utility firm in renewable and conventional sources. Specifically, conventional sources are categorized into two groups as inflexible (e.g., nuclear and coal-fired plants) and flexible (e.g., natural ga...

In this paper, we examine the effects of various industrial policies on the Korean economy using a dynamic general equilibrium model. We consider industria1 policies such as corporate income tax and subsidy as well as R&D subsidy policy. In the model we classify household sector into 10 income groups and classify production sector into 38 industries. In particular we distinguish the parts and m...

China launched the Grassland Ecological Subsidy Policy in 2011 for restoring grassland ecology by paying pastoralists to downsize stocking on degraded grasslands and compensate their income loss from livestock reduction. The policy, largest payment ecosystem services program targeting pastoralism world, has been so far through two 5-year stages: 2015 with a subsidy at 1.5 CNY per standard mu ye...
