This paper exploits survey information on reservation wages and data on actual wages from the European Community Household Panel to deduce, in the manner of Lancaster and Chesher, additional parameters of a stylized structural search model; specifically, reservation wage and transition/duration elasticities. The informational requirements of this approach are minimal, thereby facilitating comparisons between countries. Further, its policy content is immediate in so far as the impact of unemployment benefit rules and measures increasing the arrival rate of job offers are concerned. These key elasticities are computed for the United Kingdom and 11 other European nations.

Because unemployment benefit reforms typically package together a number of changes, few existing evaluations have been able to isolate the effects of changes in job search monitoring intensity on benefit recipient stocks or flows. Those few studies that do so draw mixed conclusions. This paper provides new estimates of monitoring impacts by exploiting plausibly exogenous periods where search monitoring has been temporarily withdrawn - with the regime otherwise unchanged - during a series of benefit office refurbishments in Northern Ireland. As we would expect from search theory, withdrawal of monitoring significantly increases the stock of unemployment benefit recipients via reduced outflows. © The London School of Economics and Political Science 2008.

Il tema del ruolo della contabilità nella Chiesa, con particolare riferimento al legame esistente tra contabilità e valori religiosi, non appare ad oggi sufficientemente studiato, soprattutto se si considera l’importanza economica e sociale di tale istituzione nel passato e nel presente. Il lavoro intende contribuire a tale indagine analizzando la realtà della Diocesi di Ferrara del XV secolo. Il Quattrocento rappresenta per la Chiesa italiana un’epoca di grande importanza, in quanto caratterizzato da un tentativo di riforma promosso da Papa Eugenio IV, volto a combattere la dilagante corruzione morale all’interno del clero e a riportare quest’ultimo alla sua funzione pastorale. L’appello pontificio venne accolto con particolare attenzione da due vescovi ferraresi, Giovanni Tavelli da Tossignano e Francesco Dal Legname, che attraverso le loro visite pastorali cercarono di divulgare i valori della riforma nella propria Diocesi. La promozione della nuova moralità, nell’esperienza ferrarese, era basata anche sulla diffusione degli strumenti contabili, mezzo essenziale per mettere in luce l’operato dei diversi membri del clero ed in particolare l’utilizzo da parte loro dei beni della Chiesa. Attraverso lo studio di documenti originali del XV secolo, scritti in lingua latina, il contributo si propone di mettere in luce come la contabilità possa assumere un ruolo complementare alla promozione dei valori religiosi.

This article describes the evolution of the labour market position of youth in European advanced economies in the last 3 decades, its main institutional determinants and policy instruments. In this period of time, we have witnessed the rise of the phenomenon of youth unemployment and, more recently, of joblessness. Still, youth fares quite differently across European countries. These differentials seem to be linked to institutional features of educational systems (school-to-work transitions) and labour markets (insiders-outsiders divide), and their interactions. Remedies have concentrated on the supply side of this equation (ALMP, minimum wages), leaving on the side the demand one (job creation). We conclude drawing some implications for the Chilean youth labour market concerning the necessity to develop active labour market measures to improve the transition to work processes, and to deal with the strong segmentation which still characterizes it.
