Resumen
Descripción
This edited volume brings together the
papers presented at the conference, "Rethinking the
Role of Jobs for Shared Growth," held in Washington,
DC, in June 2006. The common theme is that of mobility in
the labor market. As growth is related to sectoral shifts in
economic activity, the mobility of labor plays a crucial
role in ensuring sustainable growth whose benefits are
shared amongst all individuals. The papers in this volume
focus on selected priority issues at the frontier of
research in the microeconomics of labor markets in
developing countries, multi-segmented labor markets, the
role of informal employment and self-employment, the effect
of worker mobility on income, and the impact of firm
dynamics on growth and employment. These are important parts
of the puzzle and contribute to a better understanding of
the role of employment in the economic development of
low-income countries.
