This paper examines Irish demand patterns using conditional demand functions. This overcomes the problems faced by traditional demand analysis which neglects the influence of labour supply and thus assumes weak separability. ...
This paper examines Irish demand patterns using conditional demand functions. This overcomes the problems faced by traditional demand analysis which neglects the influence of labour supply and thus assumes weak separability. ...
This note examines the sensitivity of tests for homogeneity in demand systems to such factors as omitted variables and dynamic and stochastic specification. It estimates demand systems for Ireland using time-series data ...
We study the dynamics of an industry subject to aggregate demand shocks where the productivity of a firm’s technology evolves stochastically over time. Each period, each firm, given the aggregate demand shock, the productivity ...
Examines the sensitivity of tests for homogeneity in Ireland's demand systems on various economic factors. Use of time series data for unconditional demand systems in differentiating dynamic and stochastic specifications; ...

The degree to which any deregulated market functions efficiently often depends on the ability of market agents to respond to fluctuating conditions. Many restructured electricity markets, however, have little demand response. ...
We study the dynamics of an industry subject to aggregate demand shocks where the productivity of a firm’s technology evolves stochastically over time. To characterize the intertemporal evolution
of the distribution of ...
We incorporate previously omitted controls of external conditions in transportation and commodity markets into Porter's (1983) analysis of industry demand, conduct and stability of the JEC
railroad cartel. We estimate the ...
In this article, I evaluate the hypothesis that firms respond to negative demand shocks by assigning workers to tasks that require less skill than the tasks they normally carry out. Using changes in employment in state-industry ...
Whelan, Karl(Economic and Social Research Institute, 1999)
One of the most important debates in Irish economic history has concerned the long-run
effects of the Great Irish Famine, with some arguing that it had only temporary effects on the economy and others seeing it as a major ...
