- Title
On the Harris-Todaro Model with Intersectoral Migration of Labour.
- Authors
Amano, Masanori
- Abstract
This paper has examined, mainly from the positive point of view, a model of labour migration and urban unemployment, confining attention to less developed countries. But if, in advanced countries also, the migration mechanism assumed here is relevant and the role of relative wages in the allocation of labour is effective enough (see Pissarides, 1978, and Ross and Wachter, 1973), the conclusions obtained in this paper would be worth due considerations for these countries from the standpoint of inefficiency (in the form of unemployment) and also the stability of their working.
