| description | In this paper, the effect of changes in the average rate and in the progressivity of direct taxes on (1) the level of wages and (2) the extent to which cost-of-living increases are transmitted to wages are considered for a unionized labor market. These effects are derived theoretically for different union objectives and the models applied to data for Italian industry in a form which allows discrimination between these different objectives. The empirical estimates for the preferred model are then used to determine the effects of the postulated tax changes. |
