abstract: 'This paper examines the relationship between structural transformation
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and inequality in South Korea from 1963 to 1990. We quantify the impact
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
of structural change, age structure, employment and wage structure, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the distribution of farmland on income inequality. We find that the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
relatively equal initial distribution of farmland due to an extensive
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
redistributive land reform undertaken in the 1950s significantly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
constrained subsequent income inequality. Structural change through the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reallocation of labor out of agriculture contributed to rising income
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
inequality. By contrast, a greater female labor force participation rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
in non-agriculture, and a lower share of the working-age population
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
reduced household income inequality.'
