Abstract

L'objectif de cette Žtude est de contribuer ˆ une meilleure comprŽhension des phŽnomnes responsables de la hausse et de la persistance du ch™mage, en particulier le contraste Wallonie-Flandre. Ce travail prolonge des travaux antŽrieurs en intŽgrant simultanŽment dans l'analyse la dimension spatiale et le niveau de qualification. On peut de cette faon examiner les consŽquences de chocs asymŽtriques (rŽgions/qualifications) sur les taux de ch™mage et d'emplois vacants d'Žquilibre. L'analyse fait appara”tre en Wallonie un accroissement continu des disparitŽs de situation entre rŽgions et niveaux de qualification qui peut s'expliquer par le dŽclin des vieilles industries et le dŽveloppement des technologies nouvelles. Les disparitŽs ainsi crŽes sont d'autant plus importantes que les cožts du travail s'adaptent peu; elles semblent Žgalement avoir ŽtŽ amplifiŽes par la faiblesse de l'investissement en capital physique et en capital humain
