Abstract
This paper reviews recent search equilibrium models to see whether usable policy instruments can be derived from them. It concludes that the strength of the assumptions that many of these models make largely precludes such derivations, and ends by sketching possible lines of research that have both positive interest and the potential to yield helpful normative conclusions.
