项目摘要

Shunto is an idiosyncratic wage-setting institution in Japan that has no parallel in other countries. The purpose of this research is to analyze the structure and its transforation since the mid-1970s. For this purpose, this study employs the following two-level approaches.1. Institutional Analysis. The development of shunto was reviewed historically, and the significance of the formation and spillover of going wage was highlighted.2. Econometric Investigation, Wage function which captures the spillover effect was estimated, using the data from Labor Relations Bureau, Japan Ministry of Labor. Two methods to test the spillover effect were derived from the forgoing literature : relative wages and relative profitability between the key and non-key industries. Incorporating these two measures of spillovers, the empirical estimates proved that, compared to the 1967-1974 period, the spillover effect weakened in the 1975-1989 period.Two conclusions emerge from this research. First, while shunto wage determination is still in existence, the function and outcome have been fundamentally transformed since the mid-1970s. Second, this does not signify that the Japanese wage-setting institution has shifted to become more fragmented. On the contrary, the unified union action and mutual understanding between employers and unions have been intensified in the metal industries. However, this development has led to widening gap of interests between the metal industries and other remaining industries.

在日本，Shunto是一个独特的工资设定机构，在其他国家没有类似的机构。本研究的目的是分析20世纪70年代中期以来的结构及其转变。为此，本研究采用了以下两个层次的方法.制度分析。通过历史考察，揭示了现行工资的形成和溢出的意义.计量经济学研究中，利用日本劳动省劳动关系局的数据，估计了反映溢出效应的工资函数。在此基础上，提出了两种检验溢出效应的方法：关键产业与非关键产业之间的相对工资和相对利润率。结合这两种溢出效应指标，实证估计证明，与1967-1974年期间相比，1975-1989年期间的溢出效应减弱。本研究得出两个结论。第一，虽然顺藤工资决定仍然存在，但自20世纪70年代中期以来，其功能和结果已经发生了根本性的变化。其次，这并不意味着日本的工资制定机构变得更加分散。相反，在金属行业，工会的统一行动和雇主与工会之间的相互理解得到了加强。然而，这种发展导致金属工业与其他剩余工业之间的利益差距扩大。
