The papers analyse the issue of geographical labour market imbalances from a very broad perspective ... . the reader will find several empirical facts, new references, research questions, and empirical strategies that will be useful to understand and explore the origins and the consequences of labor market disparities for economies and regions. All regional economists interested in labour market issues should definitely find a place for this book on the shelves of their libraries. (Antonio Accetturo, Papers in Regional Science, Vol. 95 (2), June, 2016) I studied 'Geographical Labor Market Imbalances' with great pleasure and great benefits for myself and would like to recommend it to wider audience, including researchers, students and professors in the areas of labor market, regional economics and comparative economics.

The chapter's authors ... succeed in clarifying relevant and actual issues of the regional labor market and present them in a clear and accessible way without charge or overwhelming the reader with specialist terms. ...
