| Abstract: | In this study an aggregate labour market model is formulated and its parameters estimated, using Maltese annual time-series data, covering the years 1955-79. The constraint that the wage rate clears the market in all periods is not imposed and the model is specified in such a way as to enable the researcher to judge whether or not the assumption of equilibrium is valid. One conclusion that emerges from this study is that the Maltese labour market was not characterized by equilibrium during the period under consideration. |
