本文以 92 个发达国家和发展中国家为样本，实证探讨了性别不平等与贸易流动之间的国际联系。重点是劳动密集型制成品的比较优势。结果表明，性别工资不平等与劳动密集型产品的比较优势呈正相关，即性别工资差距较大的国家这些产品的出口量较高。此外，劳动力活动率和受教育程度方面的性别不平等与劳动密集型商品的比较优势呈负相关。
The paper empirically explores the international linkages between gender inequality and trade flows of a sample of 92 developed and developing countries. The focus is on comparative advantage in labour-intensive manufactured goods. The results indicate that gender wage inequality is positively associated with comparative advantage in labour-intensive goods, that is, countries with a larger gender wage gap have higher exports of these goods. Also, gender inequality in labour force activity rates and educational attainment rates are negatively linked with comparative advantage in labour-intensive commodities.
