| 要約: | Past studies have tended to investigate the relationship between trade and child labor under the
traditional trade theories, while assuming that the trade in homogenous goods and the results show
inconclusive evidence of a relationship. Hence, it would be interesting to investigate the trade effects
of differentiated goods on child labor in the setting of the new trade theory. This study attempts to
investigate the trade-induced child labor effects (selection, scale and technique effects) in selected
Asian countries over the period from 1999 to 2013. The countries consist of the major South Asian
Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries, namely: Bangladesh, India, Pakistan,
Nepal, and Sri Lanka and selected ASEAN countries, namely: Cambodia, Indonesia, the Philippines,
and Thailand, where child labor is most common. The results of this study confirm that the total
impact of trade on child labor also needs to account for the selection effect, in addition to the scale
and technique effects. The findings imply trade liberalization hampers the child labor market in the
context of the trade in differentiated goods. |
