In this paper, we investigate the role of trade liberalization in explaining these relative earnings movements, by checking all the steps predicted by the Heckscher-Ohlin-style trade transmission mechanism. We find that: i) employment shifted from skilled to unskilled intensive sectors, and each sector increased its relative share of skilled labor; ii) relative prices felI in skill intensive sectors; iii) tariíf changes across sectors were not related to skill intensities, but the pass-through from tariffs to prices was stronger in skill intensive sectors; iv) the decline in skilled earnings differentials mandated by the price variation predicted by trade is very dose to the observed one. The results are compatible with trade liberalization, accounting for the observed relative earnings changes in Brazil.engFundação Getulio VargasEnsaios Econômicos;457Earnings inequalityTrade liberalizationEconomiaSalários - Modelos econométricosEconomiaTrade liberalization and the evolution of skill earnings differentials in Brazilinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlereponame:Repositório Institucional do FGV (FGV Repositório Digital)instname:Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)instacron:FGVinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessTHUMBNAIL1306.pdf.jpg1306.pdf.jpgGenerated Thumbnailimage/jpeg4363https://repositorio.fgv.br/bitstreams/a245935a-78b8-472e-ac6c-e146d09a45e9/download21e548195aae8c5beef274b58cedff61MD58ORIGINAL1306.pdfapplication/pdf351084https://repositorio.fgv.br/bitstreams/bf8eff0a-feb4-4cd4-bdac-e1774740fbbe/downloadb785fc1e711a4862d508fc66710a3434MD52TEXT1306.pdf.txt1306.pdf.txtExtracted texttext/plain112579https://repositorio.fgv.br/bitstreams/8a9b9a86-2860-449d-94e0-a78e7dcfff13/download7642a8550788c67c53f94930ae59c8dcMD5710438/4422023-11-08 17:09:10.695open.accessoai:repositorio.fgv.br:10438/442https://repositorio.fgv.brRepositório InstitucionalPRIhttp://bibliotecadigital.fgv.br/dspace-oai/requestopendoar:39742023-11-08T17:09:10Repositório Institucional do FGV (FGV Repositório Digital) - Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV)false
