This program area analyzes the effect of institutions on labor market outcomes. A particular emphasis is on the analysis of the institutions on the micro level and their macroeconomic consequences for economic performance. Furthermore, the program area is concerned with the politico-economic determinants of institutions such as unions, employment protection legislation, minimum wages, unemployment insurance and other institutions of the welfare state. A related focus of attention is the interaction between labor markets and product or financial markets and their respective institutions as markets become ever more global.
