Trade liberalization and labor demand elasticities : 14 evidence from Turkey
22 In the recent debate over the impact of trade reform on factor markets, it has been argued 23 that trade liberalization will lead to an increase in labor-demand elasticities — thus placing 24 labor markets under increased pressure. Using Turkish plant-level data spanning the course 25 of a dramatic trade liberalization, we test this idea. However, we are unable to find any 26 empirical suppo...
متن کاملImport protection, exports and labor-demand elasticities: Evidence from Korea
Available online 8 October 2011 We empirically examine the impact of trade on labor demand elasticities using Korean firmlevel data. In our analysis, in addition to looking at the impact of liberalizing import restrictions, we take into account the fact that greater trade integration also leads to better and greater export possibilities. While we find that Korea's own tariffs do not have any st...

متن کاملTrade Reforms, Labor Regulations, and Labor-Demand Elasticities: Empirical Evidence from India
Using industry-level data disaggregated by states, this paper finds a positive impact of trade liberalization on labor-demand elasticities in the Indian manufacturing sector. These elasticities turn out to be negatively related to protection levels that vary across industries and over time. Furthermore, we find that these elasticities are not only higher for Indian states with more flexible lab...
متن کاملThe Elasticity of Labor Demand and the Optimal Minimum Wage
The Elasticity of Labor Demand and the Optimal Minimum Wage Contrary to widespread belief, we show that low-pay workers might not generally prefer that the minimum wage rate be increased to a level where the labor demand is unitary elastic. Rather, there exists a critical value of elasticity of labor demand such that increases in the minimum wage rate make low-pay workers better off for higher ...
