abstract: 'The paper investigates the consequences of outsourcing of labor
intensive activities to low-wage economies. This trend challenges the
two basic functions of the welfare state, redistribution and social
insurance when private unemployment insurance markets are missing. The
main results are: (i) outsourcing raises unemployment and labor income
risk of unskilled workers; (ii) it increases inequality between high-
and low-income groups; and (iii) the gains from outsourcing can be made
Pareto improving by using a redistributive linear income tax if
redistribution is initially not too large. We finally derive the welfare
optimal redistribution and unemployment insurance policies. (C) 2009
