| Summary: |
This dissertation consists of three independent research papers that discuss different effects of labour market imperfection on heterogeneous workers. The first paper uses a game-theoretic approach to show that coordination and informational frictions alone are sufficient to generate discrimination against old unemployed workers, even if the workers' productivities are independent of individual age. The second paper provides empirical evidence for discrimination against workers with a migration background from Turkey in the German labour market. The third paper focuses on the joint effect of imperfect labour and credit markets for student loans on unemployment and human capital. Additionally, it shows the effective distribution of the tuition burden between university graduates and blue collar workers.

| Summary in another language: |
Diese Dissertation besteht aus drei eigenständigen Arbeiten, die unterschiedliche Auswirkungen von Arbeitsmarktunvollkommenheiten auf heterogene Arbeiter betrachten. Die erste Arbeit zeigt anhand eines spieltheoretischen Modells, dass lediglich Koordinations- und Informationsfriktionen ausreichen, um Diskriminierung gegen ältere arbeitslose Arbeitnehmer hervorzurufen, selbst wenn die Produktivität der Arbeiter unabhängig von deren Alter ist. Die zweite Arbeit umfasst eine empirische Studie zur Diskriminierung gegen Arbeiter mit türkischem Migrationshintergrund auf dem deutschen Arbeitsmarkt. Die dritte Arbeit diskutiert den Effekt von Studiengebühren auf Arbeitslosigkeit und Humankapital für den Fall, dass sowohl Arbeitsmärkte als auch Kreditmärkte zur Finanzierung der Studiengebühren von Friktionen betroffen sind. Zudem wird die tatsächliche Verteilung der Studiengebührenlast zwischen Akademikern und Arbeitern ohne Studium betrachtet.
