SUMMARY:Buffett Graduate Student Colloquium with Sebastián Poblete Coddou
UID:634172@northwestern.edu
TZID:America/Chicago
DESCRIPTION:The Roberta Buffett Institute for Global Affairs hosts running colloquia for graduate students to present their research to globally engaged faculty and fellow students. In January's first graduate colloquium\, Economics PhD candidate Sebastián Poblete Coddou will present on his doctoral research\, which lies at the intersection of applied microeconomic questions and empirical industrial organization.   Q&A and discussion will follow; Lunch will be served.  New Economic Perspectives on Collective Bargaining  Despite a declining trend in the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) in coverage and especially union membership\, a large share of formal workers around the world is still covered by collective bargaining agreements. In this talk\, Sebastián will address the recent literature on the economic effects of different schemes of collective bargaining around the (mainly Western) world and discuss its particular importance as a tool to counteract increasing market power in the labor market. Determining when collective bargaining can counteract labor market power (and to what extent) is a core element of his dissertation research.
