This book focuses on the questions of how territorial differences
in productivity levels and unemployment rates arise in the first
place and why territorial differences in labor market performance
persist over time. Unemployment divergence and unemployment club
convergence have been touched on in a large number of works and
have recently also been studied using spatial econometric analysis.
In this book we aim to develop the debate to include several
important new topics, such as: the reasons why structural changes
in some sectors cause slumps in some regions but not in others; the
extent to which agglomeration factors explain regional imbalances;
the degree of convergence / divergence across EU countries and
regions; the role of labor mobility in reducing / increasing
regional labor market imbalances; the impact of EU and
country-level regional policy in stimulating convergence and the
(unsatisfactory) role of active labor market policy in stimulating
labor supply in the weakest economic areas.
