Title: Leveraging Labor Markets Policies to Promote Local Employment Creation

Citation Type: Dissertation/Thesis

Publication Year: 2021

Abstract: The large regional disparities in joblessness across local labor markets in the U.S has been extensively documented in the literature. However, contrary to what conventional economic theories predict, over the past few decades such disparities appeared to be persistent, if not growing. Therefore, local labor market policies may play a larger role in state and local governments’ policy making. In this thesis, I examine the effectiveness of two policy tools commonly adopted by local governments to promote job creation.
