Tiivistelmä: | In the paper, a dynamic labor supply model is developed based on unstable bandwagon and habit effects. It possesses multiple long-run equilibria and exhibits hysteresis and transitions between home and market time dependent on the wage rate. These properties are robust. The model provides an explanation of the long-run increase in labor supply by married women in the Netherlands, the USA and other OECD countries. |
