This paper aims to draw a comparative picture of some basic features of the public sector labour market in six European economies (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom 1 This paper summarized the main results of the thesis for SESS (Socio-Economic and Statistical Studies) P.h.D., Sapienza Università di Roma, Italy.

Market and political power interactions in Greece: A theory

In recent years the growth pattern of Greece has been disturbed, as this country is suffering from a persisting economic crisis that goes beyond the usual business cycle. In this paper, we develop a neoclassical growth model of market and political power interactions that explains this crisis. The model incorporates the insiders-outsiders labor market structure and the concept of an elite government. Outsiders form a group of workers that supply labor to a competitive private sector. And, insiders form a group of workers that enjoy market power in supplying labor to the public sector and influence the policy decisions of government, including those that affect the development and maintenance of public sector infrastructures. This leads to labor misallocation and inefficient fiscal policies. Despite the fact that expanding public sector output has a positive effect on growth, eventually this is counterbalanced by the labor misallocation and inefficient tax policy outcomes. Thus, the deep and sustained growth reversal occurring in Greece is explained as a consequence of the organizational structure of the labor market, that has important implications on the workings of the economic and political systems.
