Income Distribution and Labour Movement in China after WTO Membership: A CGE Analysis

Published By: UNU-WIDER on eSS | Published Date: June, 05 , 2005

Using a CGE model, PRCGEM, with an updated 2002 I/O table, this paper explores how earnings will be affected in each of 40 separate industries across 31 regions (or 8 regional blocks) of China for the period 2002–07. Labour movement between regions within China is considered. It is found that the direct contribution of WTO membership is small to the whole economy in terms of growth and development.
