Comparison of the Japanese and U.S. Business Cycles
The paper constructs a consistent set of quarterly Japanese data for the 1960-2002 sample period and compares properties of the Japanese and U.S. business cycles. The authors formulate, estimate and analyze a model that makes distinction between the intensive and extensive margin and allows for gender differences in labor supply.
