abstract: 'This article empirically investigates the effect of structural
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
transformation on wage inequality in Asia, using industry-level data for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
three skill groups of workers. While structural transformation,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
associated with technological progress, productivity catching-up, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
capital deepening, has contributed to Asia''s sustained growth, its
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
effect on income inequality remains uncertain. Our results show that the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
process of economic transformation has exacerbated inequality in the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
region by increasing the relative share of high-skilled workers in total
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
compensation. This is mainly due to a shift toward more productive-and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
more intensive in the use of skilled labor-activities both within and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
between industries. However, we also find that policy responses,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
especially investments in education, mitigate the increase in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequality.'
