Bargaining, Sorting, and the Gender Wage Gap: Quantifying the Impact of Firms on the Relative Pay of Women (2016, neutral): “…in effective productivity (e.g., Mulligan and Rubinstein, 2008), a more expansive view, consistent with models of frictional labor markets (e.g., Manning, 2011) is that equally productive men and women also face different job prospects and strike different wage bargains with their employers.”
Firm Market Power and the Earnings Distribution (2015, methodology): “The construction of the market power measures most closely represents an augmented rm-level implementation of the methodology proposed in Manning (2003).”
Chapter 6 – The Personnel Economics of the Developing State (2017, result): “This elasticity is similar to other quasi-experimental estimates found in the literature (e.g., Manning, 2011), as well as one reported in Deserranno (2015).”
Does Transparency Lead to Pay Compression? (2017, background): “The evidence assembled is more in line with a “populist” response to visibility of top salaries than the effect of making public officials more accountable: salaries are cut because they appear excessive, regardless of whether or not they actually are.”
Opening the Black Box of the Matching Function: The Power of Words (2020, background): “24Davis & Marinescu (2018) provide more direct evidence for the tightness effect by showing that labor market tightness measured as vacancies over applications has a positive impact on posted wages in data from CareerBuilder.”
The Wage Effects of Offshoring: Evidence from Danish Matched Worker-Firm Data (2014, neutral): “See Manning (2011) for a recent review of theory and empirics for imperfect labor markets.”
Firms and Labor Market Inequality: Evidence and Some Theory (2018, neutral): “Our analysis builds on the static partial equilibrium monopsony framework introduced by Joan Robinson (1933) which, as noted by Manning (2011), captures many of the same economic forces as search models, albeit without providing a theory of worker flows between labor market states.”
The minimum wage and the Great Recession: Evidence of effects on the employment and income trajectories of low-skilled workers (2014, background): “Empirically, such effects would be difficult to disentangle from voluntary labor force exits among individuals for whom θiai falls 7The pervasiveness of this entry effect may depend crucially on the institutional underpinnings of the bargaining parameter θi (Manning, 2011).”
