abstract: 'The analysis of the links between trade policy and labor market outcomes
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
has developed in recent decades, prompt up by the concerns about the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effects of the increasing globalization process in which trade plays a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
major role. In this work we analyze the impact of the increase in trade
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
liberalization, as a consequence of Mercosur''s creation on employment,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
income and wage dispersion at the individual level. To this aim we use
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
data from the Encuesta Continua de Hogares (ECH) for the period 1988 and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
1996 and apply impact evaluation techniques in order to isolate the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effects of trade reforms from other policies at work during the period.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
One of the most robust findings that emerge using
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
difference-in-difference regressions as well as double robust estimators
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and inverse probability weighting, is that in the period following
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Mercosur''s creation there was an increase in monthly earnings and hourly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
labor earnings as well as a significant increase in the probability of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unemployment and increased wage dispersion.'
