- Abstract
The study attempts to analyse the validity of the natural rate hypothesis and unemployment hysteresis approaches in the seven Balkan countries over the period 2004:1-2016:1 with quarterly datasets using second generation panel unit root tests. The hysteresis hypothesis indicates that the unemployment series follow unit root process, the natural rate hypothesis implies unemployment series is stationary. The methods which are used the analysis of this paper are SURADF panel unit root test by used Breuer et al. (2002); CADF panel unit root test developed by Pesaran (2007); panel KPSS unit root test that allows for structural breaks developed by Carrion-i Silvestre et al. (2005). The findings obtained from our paper display that the unemployment series are stationary in all countries for SURADF, CADF and PANKPSS test results. These results reveal that the transitory shocks in the Balkan countries do not seem to lead to the permanent effects on the unemployment rates and they show that the natural rate of unemployment hypothesis appears to be valid in Balkan countries.
