Globalisation and turnover / Carl Davidson and Steven J. Matusz -- The wage and unemployment impacts of trade adjustment / Paulo Bastos andJoana Silva -- Trade and rising wage inequality : whatcan we learn from a decade of computable general equilibrium analysis? / Niven Winchester -- Unemployment in models of international trade / Udo Kreickemeier-- Human capital and adjustment to trade /Rod Falvey, David Greenawayand Joana Silva -- Trade adjustment and occupational mobility / Richard Upward and Peter Wright -- The labour market implications of fragmentation and trade under imperfectcompetition / Barbara Dluhosch -- The labour market impact of international outsourcing / Ingo Geishecker, Holger Gèorg and Sara Maioli -- Immigration and labour market adjustment /Alexander Hijzen andDouglas Nelson.

Economists have long pointed to the aggregate gains that arise from increased economic integration. Although there will be adjustment costsin the short run, and there will be winners and losersin the long run, the consensus is that the benefits outweigh the costs. The popular perception of globalisation is much more pessimistic. There is a belief that advanced industrialised countries willbe unable to compete with imports produced with cheap foreign labour. There is also a widespread anxiety about increased immigration; workers feel less secure in their jobs and fear wage losses and unemployment as a consequence. This book analyses the prominent concerns surrounding globalisation and examines their validity. This timely volume brings together the most complete collection of studies available on this key issue.
