An Equilibrium Search Model with Coworker Discrimination
用搜索模型分析同事歧视如何导致男女工资和失业差异,发现男性歧视虽让女性受损,但男性自身获益,解释了歧视为何持续存在。
This article analyzes the effect of coworker discrimination on wage and unemployment differentials between males and females using a search model. An increase in female participation drives up the wage offer to female workers and raises female employment. Moreover, an increase in the degree of discrimination by males results in gains to them in terms of higher wages and lower unemployment but results in losses to females in terms of lower wages and higher unemployment. The benefit to males provides an explanation for the persistence of discrimination. Copyright 1999 by University of Chicago Press.
