Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: With the expansion of the neoliberal economic order, the flexible labor market paradigm has questioned the efficiency of the welfare state labor market institutions. Furthermore, the flexible labor market policy has been recommended as a universal solution to unemployment issues in developing countries. This essay poses a challenge to such a free-market orthodox view that a more flexible labor market system contributes to improving unemployment conditions in developing countries. To this end, this study utilizes the Panel Corrected Standard Error(PCSE) regression model and Generalized Least Square (GLS) Random Effect model with the time-series cross-sectional (TSCS) dataset of ten OECD countries. Contrary to the orthodox view, the empirical findings of this research suggest that in developing countries flexible labor market policy can result in higher unemployment rates.
