IZA Prize in Labor Economics
|
Since 2002, the Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA) has awarded the annual IZA Prize in Labor Economics for outstanding contributions to policy-relevant labor market research and methodological progress in this sub-discipline of economic science. The IZA Prize is the only international science prize awarded exclusively to labor economists. This special focus acknowledges the global significance of high-quality basic research in labor economics and sound policy advice based on these research findings. As issues of employment and unemployment are among the most urgent challenges of our time, labor economists have an important task and responsibility. The IZA Prize in Labor Economics is today considered one of the most prestigious international awards in the field. It aims to stimulate
further research on topics that have enormous implications for our future. All prize-winners contribute a volume to the IZA Prize in Labor Economic Series published by Oxford University Press, which has been established to provide an overview of the laureates' most significant findings. The IZA Prize in Labor Economics has become an integral part of the institute's manifold activities to promote progress in labor market research. Based on nominations submitted by the IZA Research Fellows, a high-ranking IZA Prize Committee including several Nobel laureates selects the prize-winner. In conjunction with the official award ceremony, which takes place in Berlin each year, the IZA Prize Conference brings together a number of renowned experts to discuss
topical labor market issues. Winners of the IZA Prize in Labor Economics - 2011 George J. Borjas, Harvard University, and Barry R. Chiswick, George Washington University - 2010 Francine D.
