Summary: | This paper examines the evolution of some important
macroeconomic indicators for the EU analysing the changes caused by
the crisis in the last years and tries to find which one of them is affecting
the employment rate. We therefore employ a panel data approach,

variables considered in the model are statistically significant and the
estimators are robust (with only one exception – the trade openness
variable, which was excluded from the robust estimation). |
