More DescriptionWhat new tools and models can economists use to understand how individuals participate in labor markets?"Developments in Resarch Methods and Their Applications" (volume 4A) and "New Developments and Research on Labor Markets" (volume 4B) propose answers to this and other questions on important topics of public policy.
