The paper begins with a discussion of the expectations for labor market performance that were generated by the reform process in the region. It then provides an overview of what actually happened with respect to participation rates, employment generation, unemployment and wages. It also suggests some reasons why reality was less positive than was expected. Next it examines a new hypothesis about the differential performance of labor markets in the northern and southern subregions. Finally, on the basis of evidence to support the hypothesis, it makes policy recommendations for subregion-specific steps to increase job creation as well as policies relevant for the region as a whole. 2014-01-02T16:11:54Z 2014-01-02T16:11:54Z 2001-07 Texto Documento Completo 9211213142 http://hdl.handle.net/11362/5405 LC/L.1572-P en Serie Macroeconomía del Desarrollo 5 application/pdf AMERICA LATINA Y EL CARIBE LATIN AMERICA AND THE CARIBBEAN ECLAC
