Descrição: Since the late 1970s, the wages of less-skilled US workers have fallen dramatically, both in real terms and relative to wages of more-skilled US workers. There is considerable debate over whether international trade has contributed to the declining economic fortunes of the less skilled. Skeptics about the role of globalization in US wage changes claim that technological innovation is a more plausible explanation for the shift toward skilled labor. While technology is surely an important contributing factor to rising wage inequality in the US, the current trade-versus-technology debate obscures a more fundamental question about how these responses, in turn, are transmitted to the labor market. Import data is combined with disaggregated data on input purchases from the Census of Manufacturers to construct industry-by-industry estimates of outsourcing for the period 1972-1992. Then whether outsourcing has contributed to an increase in relative demand for skilled labor is reexamined.
