Summary, etc. | RésuméCe papier explore empiriquement les effets de l’ouverture commerciale en Tunisie sur les salaires réels et relatifs, via le canal de la quasi-rente industrielle. Pour ce faire, nous adoptons à la manière de Revenga (1997) un modèle flexible de détermination des salaires qui permet de supposer à la fois l’existence d’un comportement de partage des rentes et une fixation concurrentielle des salaires. Nous exploitons des données d’entreprises issues des enquêtes sur les entreprises menées par l’Institut National de la Statistique de Tunisie (INS) sur la période 1998-2002. Les résultats montrent que la réduction de la rente sectorielle représente un moyen d’ajustement des entreprises tunisiennes au choc de l’ouverture. Ils suggèrent également que ce sont les travailleurs les plus qualifiés qui sont en mesure de capter la rente issue de la protection. Ceci explique que la dissipation de cette rente ait eu un effet de compression des inégalités de salaires entre travailleurs qualifiés et non qualifiés sur la période étudiée.Classification JEL : F16 ; J31. |
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
Summary, etc. | This paper attempts to empirically explore the effects of trade liberalization process in Tunisia on average real wages and wage inequality, via industry rents. For this purpose, we adopt, following Revenga (1997), a flexible model of wage setting that can accommodate both the presence of rent-sharing behavior and competitive wage determination. Results suggest that the quasi-rent reduction is one of the adjustment mechanisms used by Tunisian manufacturing firms to face trade policy changes. Two more inter-related findings deserve interest: skilled labor was more able than unskilled labor to capture rents before trade reforms. Hence, the reduction of rents appears to have reduced wage inequality between skilled and unskilled labor, over the period 1998-2002. JEL classification: F16; J31. |
