利用美国州级数据,研究1980年代女性劳动供给增加是否导致男性工资下降和不平等加剧,发现考虑需求变化后,女性并未替代男性,也未显著加剧不平等。

Abstract

This article examines whether increases in female labor supply contributed to rising wage inequality and declining real wages of less skilled males during the 1980s. While male wage declines are concentrated in the 1980s, female labor supply growth slowed in the l980s relative to the 1970s. Women also increased the relative supply of skill in the economy in the 1980s. Using state-level data, the authors estimate cross-substitution effects between men and women. Once they account for demand changes, the authors find little evidence that women substitute for men or that they contributed to the rapid inequality growth in the 1980s.
