Zusammenfassung

This paper examines wage flexibility in five EU countries by estimating their respective wage curves. Using information provided by a homogeneous panel data set - the ECHP - we are able to demonstrate that, contrary to the habitual finding, the wage elasticity to unemployment in fact varies across countries. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.
