Abstract:The effects of increased trade on earnings in the Swedish labour market are studied, using a large longitudinal data set. Earnings respond significantly to changes in industry sales, whether generated by domestic market forces or international trade: Swedish exports (imports) raise (lower) annual earnings, but changes in trade affect earnings just as any other shift in market conditions. It is also examined whether the effects of trade vary by skill. No systematic differences are found in the effects of trade across the skill distribution.
