| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立臺灣大學 === 國家發展研究所 === 96 === Globalization is a noticeable and momentous phenomenon upon the international economy within the recent twenty years. The trend of globalization, on the one hand, enforces the domestic market to be open and increases the importation, and on the other hand, leads to the liberalization of domestic market, which changes the market concentration ratio. According to Becker’s discrimination theory), when the product market is open to be fully competitive, the employers are less able to discriminate practically, for they have no excess profits. Thus, the level of gender earning discrimination may be decreased while the domestic market competition is enhanced by globalization through importation increase and market liberalization.
The study tends to discuss if the gender wage discrimination has abated since globalization reinforced the competition of good market. The research discovers that the opening degree of the product market helps to diminish the gender earning discrimination. However, the market concentration ratio, which represents the competition of domestic market has no influence on gender earning discrimination.
