Croissance et chômage à long terme

Abstract

[eng] This article studies the long-term relationship between labor productivity growth and unemployment. Measures of co-movements in the frequency domain indicate that the relationship is strongly negative for the seven countries studied : United States, Canada, Japan, United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Germany. We show this empirical relationship to be consistent with an efficiency wage model. [fre] Cet article est consacré à la relation de long terme entre le taux de croissance de la productivité du travail et le taux de chômage. L’application de différentes mesures des comouvements dans le domaine des fréquences montre que cette relation est fortement négative pour tous les pays étudiés (Etats-Unis, Canada, Japon, Grande-Bretagne, France, Italie, Allemagne). Une explication théorique de cette relation, fondée sur le salaire d’efficience, est proposée.
