Pierre Cahuc is Professor of Economics at Sciences Po, Paris, and Research Fellow at CEPR. He has been an IZA Research Fellow since 1999 and served as IZA Program Director for Labor Market Institutions (2004-2023), Editor of IZA Journal of Labor Economics (2012-2023), and Editor-in-chief of IZA World of Labor since 2023. Previously, he advised the French Prime Minister as member of the Conseil d'Analyse Economique (2006-2010, 2012-2016).
His research centers on labor market institutions, unemployment dynamics, and wage-setting mechanisms within macroeconomic frameworks. Cahuc has published extensively in premier journals including American Economic Review, Econometrica, and Quarterly Journal of Economics, and co-authored the MIT Press graduate textbook Labor Economics (2014) with Carcillo and Zylberberg.
Recent publications (2023-2024) reveal continued focus on institutional impacts: analyzing temporary work wages, short-time work efficacy, employment protection legislation, labor court biases, and apprenticeship systems. These works demonstrate methodological diversity through micro-macro linkages and policy evaluations, maintaining his signature emphasis on real-world labor market frictions and institutional design.
