I study the economics of development, especially the effects of globalization and global market shocks on the structure of production, employment, wages and household income and welfare. Within developing economies I focus on labor markets and migration as a key adjustment mechanism and a conduit for distributing the gains or losses from globalization and growth. I also study the impacts and incidence of domestic policies on growth, trade and environment. I am a specialist in general equilibrium modeling and, regionally, in the economies of East and Southeast Asia.
