• Revisiting the Minimum Wage—Employment Debate: Throwing Out the Baby with the Bathwater? (2014, neutral): “In particular, echoing long- standing concerns in the minimum wage literature, Dube et al. (2010) and Allegretto et al. (2011) attempted to construct better counterfactuals for estimating how minimum wages affect employment.”
• Immigration and Wage Dynamics: Evidence from the Mexican Peso Crisis (2020, neutral): “This is exactly what has been found in a large amount of the literature (Allegretto et al., 2011; Card, 1992a,b; Card and Krueger, 1994, 2000; Dube et al., 2007, 2010).”
• How Effective Is the Minimum Wage at Supporting the Poor? (2015, neutral): “More recent studies by Card and Krueger ð2000Þ, Zavodny ð2000Þ, Dube,Naidu, andReich ð2007Þ, Dube, Lester, and Reich ð2010Þ, and Allegretto, Dube, and Reich ð2011Þ produce similar findings.”
• Improving or disappearing: Firm-level adjustments to minimum wages in China (2018, result): “, 2010; Allegretto et al., 2011 Neumark et al., 2014, for example). We revisit the question using data from Chinese factories, which are often considered as a symbol of “low-cost” production. There is already some work on China in this respect; this has mainly relied on aggregate or semi-aggregate d”
• Minimum Wage Effects Across State Borders: Estimates Using Contiguous Counties (2010, result): “Although we cannot address this question directly, the results in a companion paper (Allegretto, Dube, & Reich, 2008) using the CPS suggest an affirmative answer.”
• Minimum Wages and the Distribution of Family Incomes (2018, neutral): “, Allegretto et al. forthcoming, Zipperer 2016). The resulting set of estimates produces a credible range regardless of one’s priors on, say, the desirability of using regional controls. At the same time, I assess the internal validity of various specifications using a host of falsification tests in”
• Labor Market Regulations: What Do We Know About Their Impacts in Developing Countries? (2014, positive): “5 More recent research that extends the analysis of state differentials also disputes the earlier consensus, concluding that modest increases in the minimum wage have no detectable impact on teenage employment in the U.S. (Dube et al. 2010; Allegretto et al. 2011).”
• The Effect of Minimum Wages on Low-Wage Jobs* (2019, background): “It is worth noting that the disagreement on the choice of specification for estimating the impact of minimum wages on teen employment is also driven by these early period confounding shocks (Allegretto et al., 2017; Neumark et al., 2014). We find that in the post-1992 period, there is little evidenc”
