چکیده
Decomposing the occupational structure of rural and urban labor markets allows assessing whether these structures became more alike or more dissimilar between 1970 and 1990. A shift-share method is used to compute ‘predicted’ and ‘specialized’ shares for 9 inclusive occupations. A SUR model is used to estimate the convergence process.
