本文考察了全球化是否通过改善妇女可获得的就业机会来促进妇女赋权。之前的研究已经证明，出口会因此改善缅甸以女性为主的服装厂的工作条件。在这项仅限于制衣厂社区的研究中，我们发现，生活在出口工厂(而不是非出口工厂)附近的女性报告的就业率显著更高，更多地共同参与家庭决策；她们对家庭暴力的容忍度较低，更不可能成为家庭暴力的受害者。我们用工具变量策略得出了同样的结论，该策略使用到机场的距离作为工具。
This paper examines whether globalization promotes female empowerment by improving the job opportunities available to women. Previous work has documented that exporting causally improved working conditions at predominantly female garment factories in Myanmar. In this study, restricting to garment factory neighborhoods, we find that women living near exporting factories (as opposed to nonexporting factories) report significantly higher employment rates and more joint household decision-making; they have lower tolerance for domestic violence and are less likely to be victims of domestic violence. We reach the same conclusions with an instrumental variables strategy that uses distance to the airport as an instrument.
