How Does Globalisation Affect Regional Inequality within A Developing Country? Evidence from China
提出一个实证方法，将全球化对区域不平等的影响分解为外贸和外商直接投资两部分，并应用于中国。研究发现，即使控制其他因素，全球化仍是扩大区域不平等的重要因素，而要素市场分割加剧了这一效应。
Developing countries are increasingly concerned about effects of globalisation on regional inequality. This paper develops an empirical method for decomposing the contributions of two major driving forces of globalisation, foreign trade and foreign direct investment (FDI), on regional inequality and applies it to China. Even after controlling for many other factors, globalisation is still found to be an important factor contributing to the widening regional inequality. The paper ends by investigating the role of factor market segmentations in aggravating the distributional effect of changing regional comparative advantages in the process of globalisation.
