    In recent years, new regulations have been proposed in different parts of the world to re-define the relationship between online service platforms and their workers. These regulations aim to give gig economy workers flexibility in how they conduct their work, and put a limit on how much control platforms can impose over them.Focusing specifically on control over workers’ ability to set their prices and their ability to work across multiple platform apps, this dissertation aims to understand the key operational trade-offs platforms face when choosing how much flexibility to give to its workers.In the first chapter Pricing Control and Regulation on Online Service Platforms, I build a model of a monopolistic service platform to identify when it is in the best interest of a platform to give pricing control to its workers. Taking a mechanism design approach, I identify the optimal fee structure that a platform can adopt to maximize its profits.In the second chapter Multi-homing Across Platforms: Friend or Foe?, I build a model of two platforms where each can control the monetary terms it offers to its users and also decide whether to allow its workers to accept work from the competing platform. I find that some platforms benefit from letting their workers use the competing platform. In markets that exhibit economies of scale, workers’ flexibility to use multiple platforms reduces each platforms’ ability to differentiate themselves through service quality, dampening price competition between platforms.In the third chapter Centralized or Decentralized Pricing With Platform Competition, I build a model of two competing service platforms that can individually choose whether to give pricing control to its workers or not. I identify a key trade-off: when platforms take charge of the prices in the market, they can control for the adverse effects of competition among servers, but they expose themselves to price competition with other platforms. Giving pricing control to the servers makes platforms susceptible to server competition, but dampens the competition between platforms.

    We develop an endogenous growth model to simulate the long-term impact of Italy's National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) on the persistent North-South productivity gap. Our model underscores public investment as a catalyst for sustained economic growth and highlights the reliance of local government quality on the surrounding social capital. In regions with low social capital, local investment management diminishes efficiency due to prevalent misappropriation. In contrast, centralized management enhances the effectiveness of public action in these situations. The NRRP's overall effect therefore relies on the government level to which investment management is assigned. Our quantitative exercises show that compared to centralization, decentralization weakens the NRRP's impact on the relative position of the South. However, even under our best scenario - centralized management - the NRRP only slightly reduces the NorthSouth productivity gap from 75% to 76.4%. Finally, our research highlights the pivotal role of a reform aimed at maintaining central control over Southern public investments well beyond 2026, when the NRRP's actions and governance are due to stop. This type of reform can potentially yield more substantial, positive, and lasting impacts on the region.

    Recently, Finnish forest industries shifted from sectoral collective bargaining to firm-level bargaining, and the IT services industry shifted to a hybrid of sector- and firm-level bargaining. Using administrative data on monthly wages and the synthetic difference-in-differences method, I study the causal effects of collective bargaining decentralization on the level and dispersion of wages. Despite the substantial change in the level of collective bargaining, I generally find muted effects on the level and dispersion of wages. I find positive and economically and statistically significant effects on wage levels and within-firm wage dispersion only for blue-collar workers in the paper industry. The results are, in many respects, similar to those reported previously, especially by studies using credible designs. A possible explanation for the modest changes in the level and dispersion of wages is that employers still face fairly strong unions. Unions also have substantial bargaining power locally, which limits the scope of changes due to bargaining decentralization. It should also be noted that these results are short-term results and long-term results may be different.

    We develop an endogenous growth model with public consumption and infrastructure services provided by two-tier governments. Growth performance and welfare implication are compared under the centralized and decentralized fiscal federal systems. In general, there is a trade-off between welfare and growth due to conflicts of interest and asymmetric information between central and local governments. By numerical simulations, we show that the optimal fiscal federalism should impose restrictions on expenditure-GDP ratio, rather than on expenditure-budget ratio or central-local expenditure ratio, because expenditure-GDP ratio can align the incentives of the two-tier governments. Furthermore, it is suggested that decentralized fiscal systems are generally superior to the centralized system because the efficiency loss overweighs the agency cost. The model is then applied to analyzing different growth experiences in the West and China by institutional and cultural differences.
