Globalisation and Wage Differentials: a Spatial Analysis
Fujita, Krugman and Venables (FKV) develop a model in which international wage differentials encourage industrial mobility because the advantages provided by strong inputoutput linkages within high cost countries are offset by the benefits of locating in low wage economies. In this paper we argue that globalization has another important dimension. Shocks may originate in a single country but, w...
متن کاملWage Differentials in Experimental Efficiency Wage Markets
In recent years, many econometric studies have confirmed the existence of inter-industry wage differentials. Even after controlling for a large number of joband worker related characteristics, and demographic variables, large and statistically significant industry wage differences remain. Moreover, these differences exist for union as well as for non-union workers and seem to be remarkably simi...
متن کاملWage Differentials as Reputation
Equilibrium search models obtained endogenous wage differentials among identical firms and workers based on the equal profit assumption. We formulate a more fundamentally dynamic game with identical players where workers can strategically quit and firms cannot commit to future wages, and find that equilibrium wage differentials arise due to different worker expectations on the firms’ future beh...
متن کاملUnemployment risk and wage differentials
Workers in less-secure jobs are often paid less than identical-looking workers in more secure jobs. We show that this lack of compensating differentials for unemployment risk can arise in equilibrium when all workers are identical and firms differ only in job security (i.e. the probability that the worker is not sent into unemployment). In a setting where workers search for new positions both o...
متن کاملGeneralized measures of wage differentials
This paper proposes generalized measures of wage di erentials that are not solely determined by \the average wage of the average person" but that depend on di erences across complete conditional wage distributions, thereby incorporating concerns about di erences in higher order moments. Both level and spread di erences are considered (while most existing approaches implicitly focus on levels on...
