摘要：This paper discusses a general equilibrium model of the assignment of heterogeneous workers to heterogeneous jobs. Both jobs and workers are measured along a continuous one-dimensional scale. The composition of labor supply is represented by a distribution function. Workers maximize their earnings. Highly skilled workers have an absolute advantage in all jobs and a comparative advantage in complex jobs. Utility is represented by a constant elasticity of substitution function defined over the o...

The apparent lack of correlation is usually attributed to fixed factors of production. In this paper I propose an alternative explanation by relaxing the assumption of perfect competition. By controlling for the presence of a markup component, I demonstrate that both productivity measures are in fac...
