The impact of increased levels of international trade on domestic
labor markets is a central issue for policy makers in both
developed and less developed countries. "Models of Unemployment in
Trade and Economic Development" considers the most significant
current issues in this area within the context of models which
examine the relationship between trade and unemployment.
This book, which was first published in 1980, is concerned with one particular branch of growth theory, namely descriptive growth theory. It is typically assumed in growth theory that both the factors and goods market are perfectly competitive. In particular this implies amongst other things that the reward to each factor is identical in each sector of the economy. In this book the assumption of identical factor rewards is relaxed and the implications of an intersectoral wage differential for economic growth are analysed. There is also some discussion on the short-term and long-run effects of minimum wage legislation on growth. This book will serve as key reading for students of economics.
Tourism is a growing and important industry in both developed and developing countries. In many countries it is an important source of foreign exchange. Moreover, it employs a large proportion of the domestic labour force as well as guest workers and illegal migrants. In spite of its importance as an exportable good, tourism has not been integrated into the real theory of trade. This book represents a pioneering attempt at integrating tourism into the pure theory of international trade. Some of the related issues discussed include illegal migrants, guest workers and long-run economic growth.
