abstract: 'This article analyzes a large sample of the 2005 population mini-census
data and prefecture-level statistics of China to investigate gender
earnings inequality in the context of economic marketization, paying
special attention to the changing role of occupational segregation in
the process. We approximate marketization by employment sectors and also
construct an index of marketization at the prefecture level. Results
show that, despite the tremendous economic growth, marketization has
exacerbated gender earnings inequality in urban China''s labor markets.
Gender earnings inequality is the smallest in government/public
institutions, followed by public enterprises, and then private
enterprises. The gender inequality also increases with the prefecture''s
level of marketization. Multilevel analyses show that occupational
segregation plays an important role in affecting gender earnings
inequality: the greater the occupational segregation, the more
disadvantaged women are relative to men in earnings in a prefecture''s
labor market. Moreover, the impact of occupational segregation on gender
earnings inequality increases with the prefectural level of
marketization. These findings contribute to understanding the dynamics
of gender earnings inequality and have important implications for policy
to promote gender equality in urban China. (C) 2016 Elsevier Inc. All
