| Abstract: | This paper identifies the mechanisms driving the increase in demand for skill and illustrates what this may predict for the rest of Latin America. It should be noted at the onset that one of the problems in describing this relationship is that most of these studies examine changes in wage inequality, and not income inequality. However, to the extent that a large determinant of income inequality is rising wage inequality, these studies tell us a great deal about how trade affects inequality in recently liberalised developing countries. |
