最低工资、地区间“攀比效应”与企业全球价值链参与

Minimum Wage,Regional“Bandwagon Effect”and Participation of the Enterprises in Global Value Chain

文章在构建了最低工资与企业全球价值链参与的理论模型基础上,运用Heckman两阶段模型较为系统地考察了最低工资与企业全球价值链参与的关系。研究发现:(1)最低工资上涨显著降低了企业参与全球价值链的可能性,但会提高幸存企业参与全球价值链的程度。(2)最低工资上涨对劳动密集型企业、低技能劳动力占比更高的企业参与全球价值链造成的不利影响更大。(3)最低工资通过"成本效应"、"相对价格效应"对企业参与全球价值链概率、参与程度产生作用。(4)地区间最低工资"攀比效应"与最低工资对企业参与全球价值链概率有协同抑制作用,对企业参与全球价值链程度有协同促进作用。

By constructing a theoretical model of minimum wage and the enterprises’participation in global value chain(GVC),this paper uses Heckman two-stage model to investigate the impact of minimum wage on the enterprises’participation in GVC.The results show that:(1)the increase of minimum wage significantly reduces the probability of the enterprises to participate in GVC,but increases the participation degree of the surviving enterprises in GVC;(2)the increase of minimum wage has a greater negative impact on the participation of the labor-intensive enterprises and the enterprises with a higher proportion of low-skilled labor in GVC;(3)minimum wage exerts an effect on the probability and degree of the enterprises’participation in GVC through"cost effect"and"relative price effect";(4)the"bandwagon effect"of regional minimum wage as well as minimum wage have a synergistic inhibition effect on the probability of the enterprises’participation in GVC,but exert a synergistic promotion effect on the enterprises’participation degree in GVC.
