Tiivistelmä: | The aim of this paper is to set up an empirical study to investigate the impact of international outsourcing (measured as intermediate goods trade) on real wages in Central and Eastern European Countries (CEEC). This focus is motivated by the discussion on the costs and benefits of international outsourcing for the labor-rich target economies uttered by opponents and proponents. Thereby, the authors point out that the CEEC are not only target but also source of international outsourcing. Accounting for intermediate goods world trade (exports and imports) of the CEEC, the authors find a positive impact of an increase in imports on gross wages and a negative one of an increase in exports. |
