Labour economics
Paperback. Analyzes labor markets from the real-world perspective: employers have significant market (or monopsony) power over their workers. Arguing that this power derives from frictions in the labor market that make it time-consuming and costly for workers to change jobs, this book re-examines much of labor economics based on this assumption. Num Pages: 416 pages, 28 line illus. 50 tables. BIC Classification: KCF. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 226 x 144 x 25. Weight in Grams: 530.
