Census: Population at a given time; doesn’t measure seasonal migrations and other forms of
short term migrations causing them to be underestimated

jobs available. Economic growth is governed by increasing returns to scale and decreasing
transaction costs. There is a divergence of human capital.
NEG: New economic geography
Spatial equilibrium model: People move to places that have lots of amenities, they want to
live in nice places. Convergence of human capital.
, Agglomeration: a localized economy in which a large number of companies, services, and
industries exist in close proximity to each other. Cost reduction and efficiency gains can give
benefit in an agglomeration economy.
Globalization: Movement of people, knowledge, technology and economic activities across
national borders as a result of human innovation and technological progress.
Concentrated occupation: the output of all workers is relatively the same: there is low skill
required for this occupation.
Less concentrated occupation: Big difference in output of skilled workers and unskilled
workers. High skill is needed for high output.
Positive association: The best fishermen are also the best hunters
Negative association: The best fishermen are the worst hunters.
Lorenz curve: Graph that shows income distribution.
Gini coefficient: Coefficient that shows the inequality of incomes. Higher coefficient means
more income inequality.
Perfect market: Market where everyone is a wage taker, freedom of entry, perfect
knowledge, homogenous labour.
Marginal costs of labor: Costs per physical product of labor.
Marginal revenue product: revenue per physical product (physical product*price per
product)
Demand of labor: demand for working hours by firms.
Supply of labor: Available hours by working
Shirking: Unwillingness to do a job
Unemployment: The aggregate in the demand and supply of labor
Poverty Trap: When unemployed people experience a financial decline if they would get a
low income job. Losing their social benefits and paying taxes would return in having a low
disposable income.
