“…They employ a two‐stage strategy to identify the effect of trade liberalization in Colombia on industry wage premia over the period 1985 to 1994. The same approach has been used by Kumar and Mishra () who explore the impact of the 1991 trade liberalization in India on the industry wage structure, and by Noria () who examines the role of trade openness and FDI in explaining inter‐industry wage differentials for Mexico.…”

Globalization and inter‐industry wage differentials in China

This paper explores the relationship between globalization and inter-industry wage differentials in China by using a two-stage estimation approach. Taking advantage of a rich household survey dataset, this paper estimates the wage premium for each industry in the first stage conditional on individual worker and firm characteristics. Alternative measures of globalization are considered in the second stage: trade openness and capital openness. A disaggregation of trade into trade in final and intermediate goods shows that increases in import (export) shares of final goods reduce (increase) the wage premia significantly, whereas imports or exports of intermediate goods do not explain differences in industry wage premia. This finding is supported by stronger effects for final goods trade in coastal than noncoastal regions. Our results also show a positive relationship between capital openness and industrial wage premia, though this finding is less robust when potential endogeneity issues are allowed for.

“… Following Figini and Görg () and Noria (), we also check a possible nonlinear relationship between FDI and industrial wage premia (not reported here). Consistently, an inverted‐U pattern is observed, though such a relationship appears to be insignificant.…”

“…El artículo de López-Noria (2015) analizó el impacto de TLCAN y la IED sobre las diferencias salariales inter-industriales en México y reportó un efecto positivo significativo no lineal de la IED sobre las diferencias de salarios inter-industriales; en cambio, del TLCAN no encontró un impacto semejante.…”

“…A pesar de que los salarios mínimos están regulados a nivel federal en México, diferencias regionales entre los sueldos de los empleados han sido observados en investigaciones previas (Aitken, Harrison & Lipsey, 1996;Cardoso-Vargas, 2016;Hanson, 2003;López-Noria, 2015). Debido a la mayor productividad, se esperará mayor ocupación y mejor salario de los trabajadores.…”

Este artículo analiza el impacto de algunas variables de interés sobre la Inversión Extranjera Directa —IED— en el sector manufacturero mexicano para el periodo 2007-2018. Se busca mostrar el impacto de IED recibida en este sector sobre la productividad medida en las horas trabajadas en la industria manufacturera y por la capacidad de planta, las remuneraciones pagadas al personal ocupado en establecimientos manufactureros, los salarios al personal obrero y técnico, los salarios pagados al personal administrativo y el número de personal ocupado. Se desarrollaron cuatro modelos aplicando el método de Mínimos Cuadrados Ordinarios, los primeros dos estimando seis variables, uno de ellos aplicando logaritmos; los otros dos modelos contemplando solamente las variables significativas de cada uno de ellos con el fin de simplificar el modelo. El modelo inicial aplicando logaritmos resultó más robusto. Los hallazgos confirman una relación positiva de la productividad del sector manufacturero, el número de personal ocupado y los salarios de obreros y técnicos sobre la IED.

“…The success of East Asian nations like Indonesia and Malaysia (Li, Cui, & Lu, 2014) as well as Mexico from the Americas in getting a lion share of FDI going towards the developing world as a result of investment, trade and fiscal liberalisation of their economies (Noria, 2015) has prompted many other developing states to take steps for opening and liberalising of their countries (Berger, Busse, Nunnenkamp, & Roy, 2013). Similarly, in terms of deregulation of the markets, openness and reforms concerning the liberalisation of the commerce regime Czech Republic, Hungary and Poland, are way ahead of the other Central Eastern European Countries (CEEC).…”

This research paper evaluates the relative significance of World Trade Organisation (WTO) accession in general and that of WTO led liberalisation in particular in increasing an East Asian and Pacific (EAP) developing country's desirability for foreign direct investors. Other FDI influencing factors such as economic development, macroeconomic stability, trade agreements, host market size, financial development and existence of intellectual property rights standards are also taken into consideration. Through the utilisation of annual aggregate observations for twenty eight years i-e 1988-2015, for a panel of eleven EAP developing countries, it was established that trade and investment liberalization, as well as size of local market, its extent of development, low inflation, steady depreciation of host currency and stringent IPR makes these developing nation states from East Asia and Pacific region more attractive for multinational investment. In contrast, trade agreements and financial development, though very important conventional FDI location pull factors, were insignificant in all the regression models. Moreover, it was established through the fixed and random effect panel estimation techniques that these findings are robust to the use of different empirical panel valuation methods.
