A4 analyzes the role of professional networks and work organizations for wage inequality within one generation and across generations based on a benchmark analytical framework and an agent-based simulation model with heterogeneous workers and firms. First, as workers with more pro-fessional ties in higher hierarchical positions can expect faster promotions and a higher wage growth, professional networks will amplify wage dispersion in the labor market. The first goal of the project is, hence, to gain a better understanding how this amplifying effect is related to the hierarchical structure of firms and how firm structures transmit skill heterogeneity to wage ine-quality. Second, we expect that the quality and the structure of the parents network will have an impact on the endogenous educational decisions of the young generation. The project will explore the importance of this mechanism, which transforms heterogeneity with respect to the profes-sional network of the parents to wage inequality, in a simulation setting.

A4分析了专业网络和工作组织在一代人和跨代工资不平等的基础上基准分析框架和基于代理的模拟模型与异质工人和企业的作用。首先，由于在更高级别职位上有更多专业联系的工人可以期待更快的晋升和更高的工资增长，专业网络将扩大劳动力市场的工资分散。因此，该项目的第一个目标是更好地理解这种放大效应如何与企业的等级结构相关，以及企业结构如何将技能异质性传递给工资内部质量。第二，我们预计，父母网络的质量和结构将对年轻一代的内生教育决策产生影响。该项目将探讨这一机制的重要性，在模拟环境中，这一机制将父母的职业网络异质性转化为工资不平等。
