This two-volume set collects papers that have played a particularly important role in the development of research on some aspect of the relationship between globalization and labor markets, or are excellent illustrations of one or another aspect of the relevant questions. Themes include general equilibrium theory, which sets the context for subsequent discussion; trade and wages, labor market microstructure and adjustment, and empirical research on trade and employment; migration and labor market adjustment; and foreign direct investment and labor markets. Most of the papers were written in the 1980s and 1990s. Each volume contains an introduction to the included literature. Edited by David Greenaway (economics, U. of Nottingham) and Douglas R. Nelson (economics and political economy, Tulane U.). Lacks a subject index. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
