中文摘要
我讨论了近期文献，这些文献引发了对买方垄断工资设定这一想法的新兴趣。基于搜寻理论和差异化产品模型的进展，研究者们使用了多种不同策略来识别企业特定劳动供给的弹性。一个日益形成的共识是，企业拥有一定的工资设定能力，尽管关于这种能力来源仍有许多未解之谜。（JEL B21, D21, D24, D43, J22, J31, J42）
Abstract
I discuss the recent literature that has led to new interest in the idea of monopsonistic wage setting. Building on advances in search theory and in models of differentiated products, researchers have used a number of different strategies to identify the elasticity of firm-specific labor supply. A growing consensus is that firms have some wage-setting power, though many questions remain about the sources of that power. (JEL B21, D21, D24, D43, J22, J31, J42)
