abstract: 'The overall goal of this paper is to contribute to the ongoing
|
|
|
|
assessment of China''s rural labor markets. To meet this goal, we have
|
|
|
|
three specific objectives. First, we provide an update of the trends in
|
|
|
|
off-farm labor participation and wages of the sample households and
|
|
|
|
examine how labor market outcomes have changed for those with different
|
|
|
|
levels of education. Second, we examine whether education in different
|
|
|
|
time periods-the late 1980s, the early 1990s, and the mid-1990s-can be
|
|
|
|
associated with increasing access to off-farm jobs. Finally, we examine
|
|
|
|
how returns to education have changed during the course of the reform
|
|
|
|
era. Both the descriptive data and the multivariate analysis robustly
|
|
|
|
support the findings that, between the late 1980s and the mid-1990s,
|
|
|
|
labor markets have improved in the sense that rural workers have been
|
|
|
|
increasingly rewarded for their education both in terms of off-farm job
|
|
|
|
access and higher wages. (C) 2002 Published by Elsevier Science Inc.'
