We develop a model of optimal lockdown policy for a social planner who balances population health with short-term wealth accumulation. The unique solution depends on tolerable infection incidence and social network structure. We then use unique data on nursing home networks in the US to calibrate the model and quantify state-level preference for prioritizing health over wealth. We also empirically validate simulation results derived from comparative statics analyses. Our findings suggest that policies that tolerate more virus spread (laissez-faire) increase state GDP growth and COVID-19 deaths in nursing homes. The detrimental effects of laissez-faire policies are more potent for nursing homes that are more peripheral in networks, nursing homes in poorer counties, and nursing homes that operate on a for-profit basis. We also find that US states with Republican governors have a higher tolerable incidence level, but these policies tend to converge with a high death count.

我们为平衡人口健康与短期财富积累的社会规划者建立了一个最佳封锁政策模型。唯一的解决方案取决于可容忍的感染率和社会网络结构。然后，我们利用美国养老院网络的独特数据对模型进行校准，并量化各州对健康优先于财富的偏好。我们还对比较静力学分析得出的模拟结果进行了实证验证。我们的研究结果表明，容忍更多病毒传播（自由放任）的政策会增加州的 GDP 增长和养老院的 COVID-19 死亡人数。自由放任政策对网络较边缘的养老院、贫困县的养老院和以营利为目的的养老院的不利影响更大。我们还发现，拥有共和党州长的美国各州的可容忍发病率水平较高，但这些政策往往与高死亡人数趋同：在线版本包含补充材料，可查阅 10.1007/s00148-022-00916-y。

When the European Union expanded eastward in 2004 and 2007 to accession the so-called EU8 and EU2 countries, respectively, the incumbent member states imposed temporary restrictions on the employment of EU8 and EU2 nationals. Self-employed individuals were exempted from these transitional arrangements, prompting concerns that self-employment could be used as a means to evade the restrictions on labour market access. If the transitional arrangements led to an increase in EU8 and EU2 nationals' self-employment rates, as previous research suggests, then their removal should have led to a corresponding decrease. This article analyses whether the latter has indeed been the case. Using pooled cross section data from the EU Labour Force Survey, over the period 2004-2019, we show that removing the transitional arrangements has had a negative effect on the self-employment rates of EU2 nationals, but seemingly no effect on the self-employment rates of EU8 nationals. Distinguishing between types of capitalist regimes, however, reveals a much more nuanced picture, with significant variation in terms of the magnitude and significance of the effect across groups of countries.
