Abstract

A tanulmány azt vizsgálja, hogyan befolyásolják az adóráták, a korrupció és a különböző munkapiaci intézmények a munkapiac egyes szegmenseinek - a munkanélküliek, a foglalkoztatottak, az önfoglalkoztatottak, a rejtett gazdaságban dolgozók csoportjainak - relatív nagyságát a fejlett piacgazdaságokban. Az OECD-országok 1995-2000-es évekre vonatkozó regressziós elemzései megerősítik, hogy az adóráták és a munkapiaci intézmények eltérései mellett a korrupció mértékében meglévő különbségek is fontos tényezők a munkapiaci szegmensek relatív nagyságának magyarázatában. A rejtett gazdaság és az önfoglalkoztatás esetében az adóráták hatását kifejező együtthatók maguk is függnek a korrupció mértékétől, amely hatást az adóráták és a korrupció között létező interakció testesít meg. Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) kód: H26, D73, J2, E26.
