本文通过对CHIPS数据的分位数回归分析，考察了1988 - 2008年中国城镇工资差距的变化。它应用了马查多和马塔（2005）的分解，发现不平等的急剧增加主要是由于工资结构的变化。在2002- 2008年期间，教育和经验回报的变化是均衡的。然而，其他类别工资差异的变化-性别、职业、所有权、工业部门和省份-扩大了不平等。性别差距继续扩大，白色领和蓝领工人之间以及制造业和其他部门之间的差距也在扩大。(C)2014爱思唯尔有限公司版权所有。
This paper examines change in wage gaps in urban China from: 1988 to 2008 by estimating quantile regressions on CHIPS data. It applies the Machado and Mata (2005) decomposition, finding sharp increases in inequality largely due to changes in the wage structure. During 2002-08, changes in the returns to education and experience have been equalizing. However, changes in other categories of wage differential-by sex, occupation, ownership, industrial sector, and province-widened inequality. The gender gap continued to rise, as did the gap between white collar and blue collar workers, and between manufacturing and other sectors. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
