Twenty-five percent of the population in developed countries, lives in rural areas.However, social scientists have largely focused on cities in recent decades. As a result, thereis a limited literature on rural areas. Although recent research documents large differences inemployment growth across rural areas, the drivers of labour market dynamics in these areasare still unclear. My research proposal aims to study local multipliers and agglomerationspillovers in rural labour markets, using data for Italy. Local multipliers can be defined as theadditional economic benefit that accrue to the local economy in the presence of a particulartype of economic activity. For example, if a new job is created in an area, the local economybenefits from an increase in both the spending of the firm and the spending of workers. As aresult, the multiplier effect leads to other local industries to benefit as well. Agglomerationspillovers are defined as the benefits that come when firms and people locate near oneanother together in a given geographic area. In the presence of agglomeration spillovers,rural areas can share intermediate input producer and labour pool, with a resulting decreasein cost of productions and relocation costs. Also, thanks to shared knowledge and improvedskills matching, firms experience higher innovation with lower costs and higher profits(O'Sullivan, 9th Edition). In the first strand of my research, I will study local multiplier effectsin rural labour market exploiting demand shocks for the manufacturing of food and beverageindustry. In the second strand, I will study agglomeration spillovers. My research designexploits shocks to SMEs and artisanal workshops. I will use an inverse process compared tothe literature, that tends to exploit firm entry. I will investigate the local labour market effectof firm destruction to explore the extent to which de-agglomeration spillovers affect thelabour market and lead to decrease in productivity and increase in costs at local level. Thefindings will inform governments and policy makers about drivers of labour market dynamicsin peripheral areas and help to address an important gap in our knowledge.

在发达国家中，有25％的人口生活在农村地区。但是，近几十年来，社会科学家在很大程度上关注城市。结果，关于农村地区的文献有限。尽管最近的研究记录了农村地区的失业率增长很大，但这些地区的劳动力市场动态驱动因素仍然不清楚。我的研究建议旨在使用意大利的数据研究农村劳动力市场的本地乘数和集聚。可以将本地乘数定义为在有特殊经济活动的特殊性的情况下赋予当地经济的跨国经济利益。例如，如果在某个地区创建了一项新工作，则本地经济依赖公司的支出和工人支出的增加。作为Aresult，乘数效应也导致其他本地行业也受益。聚集销售被定义为当公司和人们在特定地理区域一起将Oneanother附近的企业和人们定位时所带来的好处。在存在聚集的溢出面的情况下，农村地区可以共享中间的投入生产者和劳动池，从而降低了生产成本和搬迁成本。同样，由于共同的知识和改进的技能匹配，公司经历了更高的创新，成本较低，利润更高（O'Sullivan，第9版）。在我的研究的第一个方面，我将研究农村劳动力市场的当地乘数影响，以利用需求冲击为制造食品和饮料工厂的生产。在第二条中，我将研究聚集的溢出。我的研究DesignPloits对中小企业和手工研讨会震惊。我将使用比较文献的反相比过程，该文献倾向于利用公司的进入。我将调查企业破坏的当地劳动力市场效应，以探索散发性溢出影响thelabour市场的程度，并导致生产率下降和本地一级成本上升。调查将为政府和政策制定者提供有关劳动力市场动态驱动力的驱动力，并有助于解决我们知识的重要差距。
