  • Competing for Talent
    COMPETING FOR TALENT By Yuhta Ishii, Aniko Öry, and Adrien Vigier February 2018 COWLES FOUNDATION DISCUSSION PAPER NO. 2119 COWLES FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH IN ECONOMICS YALE UNIVERSITY Box 208281 New Haven, Connecticut 06520-8281 http://cowles.yale.edu/ Competing for Talent Yuhta Ishii, Aniko Ory,¨ and Adrien Vigier∗ First Draft: August 2015 This Draft: February 2018 Abstract In many labor markets, e.g., for lawyers, consultants, MBA students, and professional sport players, workers get offered and sign long-term contracts even though waiting could reveal significant information about their capabilities. This phenomenon is called unraveling. We examine the link between wage bargaining and unraveling. Two firms, an incumbent and an entrant, compete to hire a worker of unknown talent. Informational frictions prevent the incumbent from always observing the entrant's arrival, inducing unraveling in all equilibria. We analyze the extent of unraveling, surplus shares, the average talent of employed workers, and the distribution of wages within and across firms. Keywords: Unraveling, Talent, Wage Bargaining, Competition, Uncertainty.

Conclusion Appendices A1 Commonwealth Road and Bridge Policy A2 Air Quality Conformity Documentation A3 Participants and Meetings A4 Endorsement 3 Preface The Martha's Vineyard Regional Transportation Plan is updated every three years. It outlines the Vineyard’s transportation issues and outlines proposals to deal with them. The Martha’s Vineyard Commission serves as one of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ thirteen Regional Planning Agencies. Ten of these thirteen regional planning agencies are federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO). The federal regulations require that an MPO be formed in urbanized areas with a population of 50,000 or more. While Martha’s Vineyard as well the Franklin County and Nantucket regions do not meet these criteria, the Executive Office of Transportation and Construction and the Massachusetts Highway Department provide planning funds for transportation planning in these regions, and essentially treat them as MPOs.

  • Impact of Trade on the Characteristics of the Digital Newspaper Market New Empirical Evidence from Francophone Africa
    Impact of Trade on the Characteristics of the Digital Newspaper Market New Empirical Evidence from Francophone Africa Anaïs Galdin May 22th, 2017 Abstract This paper provides a first empirical study of how openness to international trade in news products, a phenomenon largely facilitated by the digitalization of newspapers, may impact the characteristics of the information products available to consumers. Based on acasestudyoftheentryofFrenchmediafirmsinFrancophoneAfrica,webuildanew dataset of more than 800 000 newspaper articles over the period 2005 to 2017. Using text mining techniques, we construct a five-dimensional set of newspaper characteristics to qualitatively analyze newspaper data. Our evidences suggest that the entry of French digital newspapers, which produce a relatively low share of local news and whose websites are generally uniformly targeting all Francophone African countries, lead to a significant decrease of the diversity of subjects treated by Francophone African newspapers, charac- terized by a strong and significant increase of the share of local news, and a small decrease of the total number of articles related to France. We also find a slight but significant impact of the penetration of French digital newspapers on two indicators of newspaper format, namely a small increase of the average frequency of publication of Francophone African newspapers, and a very small decrease of the mean wordcount per articles. We believe the specific format of the news displayed on the web, generally significantly shorter than printed articles and with a higher publication rate, could explain the weakness of the effect on these two indicators.1 1I would like to thank my advisors, Julia CAGE and Thomas CHANEY, for their time, constructive discussions and invaluable advice.

  • Mathematical Economics at Cowles1
    Mathematical Economics at Cowles1 Gerard Debreu Presented at The Cowles Fiftieth Anniversary Celebration, June 3, 1983 Introduction The first fifty years of Cowles were a period of profound and far-reaching transformation in the field of mathematical economics. A few numbers help one to perceive the depth and the extent of the change that took place in the half-century just ended. Both Econometrica and The Review of Economic Studies began publication in 1933. The first volume of the former for the calendar year 1933 and the first volume of the latter for the academic year 1933–34, together, devoted 165 pages to articles contributing to mathematical economics, by a liberal definition of terms. According to a stricter definition, the corresponding number of pages for the year 1982 was close to 4,000 for the five main periodicals in the field (Econometrica, Review of Economic Studies, International Economic Review, Journal of Economic Theory, and Journal of Mathematical Economics). No less remarkable was the metamorphosis of the American Economic Review. Its entire volume for the year 1933 contained exactly four pages where any mathematical symbol appeared, and two of them were in the Book Review Section. In contrast, in 1982 only five of the fifty-two articles published by the A.E.R. were free from mathematical expressions. Still another index of the rapid growth of mathematical economics during that period can be found in the increase in membership of the Econometric Society, which went from 163 on January 1, 1932 to 2,987 in 1982. Having heeded the demanding motto “Science is Measurement,” under which the Cowles Commission worked for its first twenty years, we may look at non-quantifiable aspects of the development of mathematical economics from the early thirties to the present.

    COWLES FOUNDATION FOR RESEARCH IN ECONOMICS AT YALE UNIVERSITY Four Year Report, July 1, 1992 – June 30, 1996 TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Introduction 2. Research Personnel 3. The Library 4. Meetings 5. Publications 6. Other Publications by Research Staff 1. INTRODUCTION The Cowles Commission for Research in Economics was founded in 1932 by Alfred Cowles in collaboration with a group of econ- omists, mathematicians, and statisticians, all of whom were concerned with applying quantitative techniques to economics and related social sciences. As the original Articles of Incorporation explained, “said corporation is formed ... to educate and benefit its members and mankind, and to advance the scientific study and development ... of economic theory in its relation to mathematics and statistics.” The Cowles Commission was formally chartered as a not-for-profit corporation in Colorado on September 9, 1932. In 1939 it relocated to the University of Chicago and then, in 1955, moved to Yale University where it was renamed The Cowles Foundation for Research in Economics at Yale University. The Cowles Foundation today continues to pursue its basic mission of fostering the development of logical, mathematical, and statistical methods of analysis for application in economics and related social sciences. The field of economics has developed and changed dramatically over the last 60-plus years, since the Cowles Commission was founded. The changes, particularly as to the methods of analysis deployed, reflect in part the success of the Commission and similar research organizations in developing and disseminating new quantitative techniques. As economics has changed, so has the scope of inquiry at Cowles and the breadth of research interests of the research staff.

  • Part Iii. Nantucket and the World's People
    PART III. NANTUCKET AND THE WORLD’S PEOPLE Foreword Nantucket’s English settler families were not the first inhabitants of the island, nor has there ever been a time when their progeny, the “descended Nantucketers,” were the only residents. Sarah P. Bunker, who serves as the leitmotif for these Nantucketers, lived in a house built hard by a Wampanoag burial site and inherited a basket made for her father by Abram Quary, Nantucket’s “last Indian.” When she was a girl, her father—a sea captain in the China trade—was in the habit of receiving crewmen and foreigners at home, and he employed live-in “help” to assist with the care and upkeep of what was grandly known as “the Pinkham estate.” Years later, in the straitened circumstances of her widowhood, Sarah P. supported the household by nursing injured, sick, and dying people of “all sorts” as Nantucket’s bone-setter Zaccheus Macy had done a century earlier.1 As she lived out the last decade of her life in her upstairs room, what reached her ears from downstairs day in, day out was the incomprehensible conversation of her grand- daughter-in-law’s relatives from Finland. Sarah P. knew full well that on Nantucket there were strangers to be found wherever one turned, not just in sailors boarding houses and the servants quarters of descended Nantucketers’ houses. Parts I and II have followed the history of the Wampanoags who were in possession of the island before the English came; the Africans who were brought here by the English; and many people who came from other islands in the employ of Nantucketers.
