Abstract

US–China trade is widely thought to have contributed significantly to the decline in US manufacturing employment, sometimes called the China syndrome. Flipping the point of view, we examine its impact on Chinese local labor markets between 2000 and 2010. In prefectures most exposed to export growth, there is a pronounced increase in manufacturing employment, primarily among young, low‐educated, rural people and more for blue‐collar workers. Beyond manufacturing, there is a decline in agricultural, yet an expansion in service employment, exhibiting substantial heterogeneity across demographics. The export‐driven structural transformation is profound and long‐lasting out to 2020. Among nonworking people, export growth primarily increases school attendance and the share of people relying on family support, suggesting an income effect.

中国综合症的另一面：中国本地劳动力市场效应

人们普遍认为，中美贸易在很大程度上导致了美国制造业就业率的下降，这种现象有时被称为 "中国综合症"。我们转换视角，研究 2000 年至 2010 年间中美贸易对中国本地劳动力市场的影响。在受出口增长影响最大的地区，制造业就业人数明显增加，主要是年轻、低学历的农村人口，蓝领工人的就业人数也有所增加。除制造业外，农业就业人数减少，但服务业就业人数增加，显示出不同人口结构之间的巨大差异。出口驱动的结构转型是深刻而持久的，一直持续到 2020 年。在非就业人口中，出口增长主要增加了入学率和依靠家庭支持的人口比例，这表明存在收入效应。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
