abstract: 'This paper examines the evolution of female labor market outcomes from
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1987 to 2008 by assessing the role of changing labor demand requirements
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in four developing countries: Brazil, Mexico, India and Thailand. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
results highlight the importance of structural change in reducing gender
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
disparities by decreasing the labor demand for physical attributes. The
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
results show that India, the country with the greatest physical labor
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
requirements, exhibits the largest labor market gender inequality. In
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
contrast, Brazil''s labor requirements have followed a similar trend seen
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in the United States, reducing gender inequality in both wages and labor
