The Effects of Statutory Minimum Wages

Authors

Jaynanne Calaway '99, Illinois Wesleyan University

Abstract

This discussion will explore the various theories regarding the effects of minimum wages on employment and relative earnings for the low-paid in an economy. Then, we will examine the research to consider which side the data supports—that is, if it does indeed conclusively decide the case one way or the other.
