abstract: 'The observed gap in average wages between black men and white men
|
||||
|
||||
inadequately reflects the relative economic standing of blacks, who
|
||||
|
||||
suffer from a high rate of joblessness. The authors estimate the
|
||||
|
||||
black-white gap in hourly wages from 1980 to 1999 adjusting for the
|
||||
|
||||
sample selection effect of labor inactivity. Among working- age men in
|
||||
|
||||
1999, accounting for labor inactivity - including prison and jail
|
||||
|
||||
incarceration - leads to an increase of 7\% - 20\% in the blackwhite
|
||||
|
||||
wage gap. Adjusting for sample selectivity among men ages 22 - 30 in
|
||||
|
||||
1999 increases the wage gap by as much as 58\%. Increasing selection
|
||||
|
||||
bias, which can be attributed to incarceration and conventional
|
||||
|
||||
joblessness, explains about two- thirds of the rise in black relative
|
||||
|
||||
wages among young men between 1985 and 1998. Apparent improvement in the
|
||||
|
||||
economic position of young black men is thus largely an artifact of
|
||||
|
||||
rising joblessness fueled by the growth in incarceration during the
|
||||
|
||||
1990s.'
