Modern Labor Economics by Ronald G Ehrenberg

Modern Labor Economics: Theory and Public Policy is a leading text in labor economics. This fourteenth edition presents updated data throughout and a wealth of new examples, such as the impact of COVID-19 lockdowns, gig work, nudges, monopsony power, and the effect of machine learning on inequality.

Praise for the thirteenth edition:

"Modern Labor Economics incorporates current policy issues while maintaining a strong focus on economic theoryThe summaries of seminal academic works are indisputably important for bolstering student knowledge, and the inclusion of real-world applications makes the research far more comprehensible to a broader audience."

Tongzhe Li, University of Delaware, USA

"A classic in the field of labor economics. Indeed, as the title implies, Ehrenberg and Smith literally put the modern in labor economics as taught to undergraduates. Since first published in 1982, many competing textbooks in labor have come and gone. Ehrenberg and Smith, with impeccable writing, comprehensive coverage of the relevant topics, and intuitive application of economic analysis to the critical public policy problems of the day, has stood both the market test and the test of time."

Kevin J. Murphy, Oakland University, Rochester Michigan, USA
