Empirical Analysis of Job Matching across Space : Evidence from Chinatown and Urban Agglomeration

在过去的三十年里，动荡时期的发展中经济体的劳动力市场经历了一场引人注目的变革。城市人口在增长，市场规模和空置率也在增加，但各国的拥堵状况也在加剧。为了理解经济地理学中失业与空缺之间空间错配的证据和理论，我们必须对失业和企业的战略行为进行深入的描述。这种对城市劳动力市场寻找-匹配摩擦的结构性支撑，为积极的劳动力市场计划提供了良好的经验策略和评估方法，以实现工资增长、更高的匹配质量和灵活的人员流动。同时，近年来的实证研究和理论研究都强调了非正式工作网络在发展中经济体的求职匹配和发达经济体的劳动力市场中的作用。这项研究提出了一种新的机制，将求职匹配、网络和市场规模联系起来，I…更多的发展中经济体明确了城市景观的作用，即唐人街和城市群。它使用从印度尼西亚、泰国或其他发展中经济体收集的调查数据和机构层面的数据，调查了这些非正式联系在唐人街和城市群中的可测试影响。为了刻画城市劳动力市场中的寻找匹配机制，本研究描述了技能形成过程以及对通用技能和特定技能的回报。本研究确定了就业网络形成的关键参与者(信息枢纽)。此外，我们还调查了就业网络的地理范围及其质量。基于这些观点，本研究比较了非正式交易和正式交易在城市劳动力市场中的作用(互补性和替代性)，以寻求最优的失业狂欢、失业持续时间和长期匹配质量。本研究以城市劳动力市场的理论特征为基础，考察了唐人街内部的城市景观以及创业与居住选择之间的关系。较少

The labor markets in developing economies in turbulent times have undergone a distinguished transformation over the past three decades. Urban population has grown, while market size and vacancy also has increased, congestion also has grown across countries. To understand the evidence and theory of spatial mismatch between unemployment and vacancy in economic geography, we have to describe strategic behavior of unemployed and establishments deeply. Such structural underpinning of search-match frictions in urban labor market provides the fine empirical strategy and evaluation method of active labor market program to achieve wage growth, higher match quality, and flexible turnovers. At the same time, since recent empirical and theoretical researches have emphasized the role of informal job network on job search and matching in developing economies as well as labor market in developed economies. This research proposes a new mechanism linking job search-matching, networks, and market size i … More n developing economies to detect explicit the role of urban landscape, i. e., the Chinatown and urban agglomeration. It investigates the testable implications of these informal linkages in the Chinatown and urban agglomeration using survey data and establishment-level data gathered from developing economies like Indonesia, Thailand, or other developing economies. To characterize the search-matching mechanism in urban labor market, this research describes skill formation process and the returns to general and specific skill. This research identifies the key players(information hubs) of the formation of job network. In addition to these, we investigate the geographic extent of job network and its quality. Based on these points of views, this research compares the roles(complementarities and substitutability) of informal transactions with formal transactions in urban labor market to seek for optimal unemployment revels, durations, and the long-term match quality. This research has investigated the inside the urban landscape of the Chinatowns and the relationship between entrepreneurship and residential choice based on theoretical characterization of urban labor market.
