Here is a Fortran Program written by Aysegul Sahin, University of Rochester, in order to replicate the results in “The Role of Unemployment Insurance in an Economy with Liquidity Constraints and Moral Hazard”, JPE 1992. Also there are instructions and a short summary of the findings obtained using this program.

In addition, Fabio Kanczuk from University of Sao Paulo has written Matlab Programs (1,2) for this paper. While we haven’t worked with these program we would like to make it available for others who might be interested in solving this model.

This is the corrected data set used in “Government programs can improve local labor markets: Evidence from State Enterprise Zones, Federal Empowerment Zones and Federal Enterprise Community,” Journal of Public Economics (2011), available to researchers.

This topic continues to generate attention from researchers and policy makers as different papers seem to reach very different conclusions. We hope that this data set will facilitate more research in this area.

Here is the STATA version: STATA data and readme file. Here are the program files: programs. Here is the document that provides the corrected results for the poverty rate for which there was a data error in the original paper. Updated results Ham et al (2011): readme
