More than 10 years ago O'Donoghue (2001a) surveyed the dynamic microsimulation
models that had been developed up to that point. However many of the barriers mentioned …

This paper provides a technical survey of recent developments in behavioural
microsimulation. We discuss the criteria by which models of labour supply may be chosen …

In October 1999, the working families' tax credit (WFTC) replaced family credit as the main

Feminist standpoint theories are deeply indebted to the women's political movements of the

When assessing the effects of policy reforms on the labor market, most studies only focus on
labor supply. The interaction of supply and demand is not explicitly modeled, which might …

This chapter reviews options of labor market modeling in a computable general equilibrium
framework. On the labor supply side, two principal modeling options are distinguished and …

In the paper we describe in detail how to build linked CGE-microsimulation models (using
fictitious data) following three main approaches: one in accordance with the fully integrated …

Alignment is a widely adopted technique in the field of microsimulation for social and
economic policy research. However, limited research has been devoted to the …

We study three budget-neutral reforms of the German tax and transfer system designed to
improve work incentives for people with low incomes: a feasible flat tax reform that provides …

This chapter reviews options of labor market modelling in a CGE framework. On the labor
supply side, two principal modelling options are distinguished and discussed: aggregated …
