《JDE》| Dai et al：家庭如何适应关税自由化？ 中国加入世贸组织的证据

摘要：本文研究了家庭如何适应中国进口关税自由化对当地劳动力市场的冲击。利用加入世贸组织造成的关税削减的地区差异，我们发现最初专门从事面临更大关税削减行业的地区工资下降幅度相对较大。家庭对冲击的反应有多种方式，包括更多的女性和家庭中的老年人仍继续工作，更多的年轻人与父母同居，以及家庭储蓄较少。这些发现表明，家庭在抵御贸易引起的劳动力市场冲击方面起着保险的作用。

Abstract: This paper investigates how households adjust to local labor market shocks caused by import tariff liberalization in China. Exploiting regional variation in the exposure to tariff cuts resulting from the WTO accession, we find that regions that initially specialized in industries facing larger tariff cuts experienced relatively larger wage declines. Households responded to the shock in several ways, including more female and old household members working, more young adults co-residing with parents, and households saving less. These findings suggest an insurance role of households against trade-induced labor market shocks

Keywords: Household adjustments, Trade liberalization, WTO, China
