However, Auckland recently upzoned approximately three-quarters of its residential land, precipitating a housing construction boom. We investigate whether the reform reduced housing costs, adopting a synthetic control method to estimate rental prices in Auckland under the counterfactual of no zoning change. Eight years after the reform, the synthetic control under our preferred empirical specification implies that rents decreased by 23% due to the reform. These findings are robust across a range of specifications and support the proposition that widespread upzoning can enhance housing affordability.</p>","PeriodicalId":51380,"journal":{"name":"Economic Inquiry","volume":"64 4","pages":"1393-1433"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ecin.70075","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149125754","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As helicopter drops can affect the distribution of income across countries, they create room for redistribution policies which are particularly relevant when agents are heterogeneous and markets are incomplete. Under cooperation, central banks can implement the conditionally Pareto optimal allocation using helicopter drops (and suctions) to “lean against the wind.” In a non-cooperative setting, helicopter drops exacerbate the incomplete markets' friction by making income more volatile.

When salary histories are banned, firms cannot tailor their wage offers to the applicants' prior wages and thus offer the same wage to each group of workers.

Salary history bans also affect (young) workers' behavior in initial negotiations, where they act less aggressively and demand lower wages. Finally, salary history bans are shown to reduce worker turnover, but to increase the hiring of younger workers.</p>","PeriodicalId":51380,"journal":{"name":"Economic Inquiry","volume":"64 3","pages":"916-930"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2026-07-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/ecin.70065","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148389217","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
