abstract: 'We investigate the effects of the drastic tariff reductions of the 1980s
|
||||
|
||||
and 1990s in Colombia on the wage distribution. We identify three main
|
||||
|
||||
channels through which the wage distribution was affected: increasing
|
||||
|
||||
returns to college education, changes in industry wages that hurt
|
||||
|
||||
sectors with initially lower wages and a higher fraction of unskilled
|
||||
|
||||
workers, and shifts of the labor force towards the informal sector that
|
||||
|
||||
typically pays lower wages and offers no benefits. Our results suggest
|
||||
|
||||
that trade policy played a role in each of the above cases. The increase
|
||||
|
||||
in the skill premium was primarily driven by skilled-biased
|
||||
|
||||
technological change; however, our evidence suggests that this change
|
||||
|
||||
may have been in part motivated by the tariff reductions and the
|
||||
|
||||
increased foreign competition to which the trade reform exposed domestic
|
||||
|
||||
producers. With respect to industry wages, we find that wage premiums
|
||||
|
||||
decreased by more in sectors that experienced larger tariff cuts.
|
||||
|
||||
Finally, we find some evidence that the increase in the size of the
|
||||
|
||||
informal sector is related to increased foreign competition-sectors with
|
||||
|
||||
larger tariff cuts and more trade exposure, as measured by the size of
|
||||
|
||||
their imports, experience a greater increase in informality, though this
|
||||
|
||||
effect is concentrated in the years prior to the labor market reform.
|
||||
|
||||
Nevertheless, increasing returns to education, and changes in industry
|
||||
|
||||
premiums and informality alone cannot fully explain the increase in wage
|
||||
|
||||
inequality we observe over this period. This suggests that overall the
|
||||
|
||||
effect of the trade reforms on the wage distribution may have been
|
||||
|
||||
