This book was released on 1995-11-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper examines the role of the labor market in the transmission process of adjustment policies in developing countries. It begins by reviewing the recent evidence regarding the functioning of these markets. It then studies the implications of wage inertia, nominal contracts, labor market segmentation, and impediments to labor mobility for stabilization policies. The effect of labor market reforms on economic flexibility and the channels through which labor market imperfections alter the effects of structural adjustment measures are discussed next. The last part of the paper identifies a variety of issues that may require further investigation, such as the link between changes in relative wages and the distributional effects of adjustment policies.

For students of economic specialization of Central Asia studying in Europe and the United States and the widest range of readers interested in problems of Economics Republic of Uzbekistan. This book “Labour Economics: Theory and Practice” was presented at the International Conference This book “Labour Economics: Theory and Practice” was presented at the International Conference in 2019 in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, with participation of Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan and Russian Federation as well as foreign countries Embassies, and in particular UK Ambassador in Tashkent, Uzbekistan Timothy Torlot. As it is known, during 25 years of independence of the Republic of Uzbekistan scientists and researchers have not had opportunity to exchange research, the latest scientific achievements and developments. Over the past 3 years new President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev has fundamentally changed his approach to domestic and foreign policy of the country, due to which Central Asian region has entered a new stage in development of interactions in cultural and humanitarian cooperation. There arose a necessity of interaction between scientists to deepen cultural and humanitarian cooperation. Academician Kalandar Abdurakhmanov was the first who presented new generation textbook “Labor Economics: Theory and Practice” in Uzbek at international conference, and arose a great interest of international scientific community in this scientific work, as a result, the textbook was firstly translated from Uzbek into Russian, Kazakh, Kyrgyz, Tajik and English. And it is planned to publish the textbook in Chinese, Japanese, Malaysian and Indonesian. It shows that scientists of new generation and format are represented in the Republic of Uzbekistan. In February 2019, the leading academic economist, academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Kalandar Abdurakhmanov presented the fundamental work in Uzbek language “Labor Economics, Theory and Practice”, devoted to modern issues of sustainable employment formation and strengthening the role of human resources in modern conditions of innovative development of the economy. During the International Conference “Plekhanov International Readings”, a global scientific conference held in Tashkent, Uzbekistan in 2019, after acquaintance of the scientific community with this textbook, an idea of rector of the Russian Economic University named after G.V. Plekhanova, Victor Grishin to publish the Uzbek textbook “Labor Economics. Theory and Practice” in the Russian Federation in Russian language was put forward. It should be noted that the scientific community of a number of Central Asian states also showed their interest in this publication. This is due to the fact that the new, revised and updated edition of the textbook “Labor Economics. Theory and practice” of academician Kalandar Abdurakhmanov is a fundamental work, covering the latest achievements of this science. Writing of this textbook is totally a new step in the direction of high qualified personnel training that is full with innovative changes on a global scale. The scientific community of a number of foreign countries also showed their interest in the publication, as University students in developed countries study the sciences of Labor economics and Modern Labor economics, which cover the most modern areas of labor economics theory. In the textbook academician Kalandar Abdurakhmanov takes into account all the latest achievements in this discipline. The author of the textbook is academician of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan Kalandar Abdurakhmanov has extensive experience in this field. Scientific monographs, textbooks and tutorials of the academician are published in the USA, Germany, France, Norway, China, Malaysia, Indonesia, Finland, South Korea, Japan, Russia and other countries. Created on the basis of Tashkent State University of Economy and led by it, the scientific school “Labor Economics” is successfully engaged in scientific research on the problems of social and labor relations, studying aspects of improving personnel management, organizing remuneration, improving the mechanism of the labor market, employment issues, conducting scientific disputes, round tables, seminars and conferences on these topics with the participation of leading scientists and economists on labor issues of Uzbekistan. Priority areas have been approved as part of the activities of the scientific school scientific research for 2020-2021 on the preparation and publication of monographs, scientific collections. Academician Kalandar Abudrakhmanov has published more than 15 articles in Scopus, one of the most respected collections of bibliographic and abstract scientific materials in the world, as well as in the Web of Science. All this, of course, explains the great interest in the new textbook, with the new economic approaches of academician Kalandar Abdurakhmanov both from scientists from the Central Asian region, the Russian Federation, and from foreign countries. This scientific work embodies ideas that have recently been shared by many domestic and foreign researchers in the field of labor economics. The book is written at a high professional level. The textbook for the first time disclosed the theoretical aspects of not only Western leading economists, but also examined the evolutionary stages of the economic views of Eastern thinkers such as Abu Nasr al-Farabi, Muhammad Khorezmi, Abu Rayhon Biruni, Abu Ali ibn Sina (Avicenna), Khoja Ahmed Yasawi, Mirzo Ulugbek, Alisher Navoi, Amir Temur, Babur and many other geniuses, not only of Islamic, but also of world civilization.

Book excerpt: During much of the 1980s, US wage growth has been unexpectedly slow in the face of relatively low unemployment rates and high capacity utilization rates. This collection of papers resulting from the Wage Structure Conference held by the Federal Research Bank of Cleveland, November 1989, helps explain labour market behaviour in that period. The contributors - academic and research economists in labour economics - provide a comprehensive assessment of the current state of the wage-setting process in the US labour market.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The need to understand the theories and applications of economic and finance risk has been clear to everyone since the financial crisis, and this collection of original essays proffers broad, high-level explanations of risk and uncertainty. The economics of risk and uncertainty is unlike most branches of economics in spanning from the individual decision-maker to the market (and indeed, social decisions), and ranging from purely theoretical analysis through individual experimentation, empirical analysis, and applied and policy decisions. It also has close and sometimes conflicting relationships with theoretical and applied statistics, and psychology. The aim of this volume is to provide an overview of diverse aspects of this field, ranging from classical and foundational work through current developments. Presents coherent summaries of risk and uncertainty that inform major areas in economics and finance Divides coverage between theoretical, empirical, and experimental findings Makes the economics of risk and uncertainty accessible to scholars in fields outside economics

Download or read book Theories of the Labour Market and Employment written by Lewis Frederick Abbott and published by Industrial Systems Research. This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Free and flexible labour markets can automatically end both labour surpluses (unemployment) and labour shortages (over-employment). However, in practice various things may impede wage flexibility, freedom of contract, and labour mobility – and thus the balancing of supply and demand. Protectionist minimum wage tariff barriers and other obstacles to labour market entry and competition are one major general cause of unemployment. Technological and other business-economic development is a second major general cause while contraction or recession in economies is a third. The book argues that broadly dividing unemployment into obstructional, developmental, and contractional types is more accurate and useful than distinguishing between frictional, structural, and cyclical forms (the conventional economic classification). It also argues that is inadequate to analyze labour markets or explain employment and unemployment in purely economic terms. Even in the most developed, differentiated and autonomous market capitalist economies, external socio-cultural, personality, and physical-organic environmental factors still impinge on labour markets and employment. A general theme of the book is the importance of bringing in empirical data from the real world to support or disprove theories.
