Abstract

My dissertation comprises three chapters. The first chapter examines the impact of Amazon’s physical expansion on local business owners, finding no effect on income but an increase in full-time local business owners. The second chapter assesses the effects of e-commerce expansion on the US labor market using instrumental variable techniques to analyze earnings, employment, and establishment numbers. The third chapter studies implementation of Recreational Marijuana Legalization (RML), finding no significant impact on labor outcomes across different skill levels.
