Gender Wage Inequality and Economic Growth: Is There Really a Puzzle?—A Comment
复制了Seguino（2000）关于性别工资歧视促进经济增长的研究，使用更全面的跨国数据发现，歧视对增长无益甚至有害，支持性别平等对公平和增长都有利。
Seguino (2000) shows that gender wage discrimination in export-oriented semi-industrialized countries might be fostering investment and growth in general. While the original analysis does not have internationally comparable wage discrimination data, we replicate the analysis using data from a meta-study on gender wage discrimination and do not find any evidence that more discrimination might further economic growth-on the contrary: if anything the impact of gender inequality is negative for growth. Standing up for more gender equality-also in terms of wages-is good for equity considerations and at least not negative for growth.
