Abstract

Over the last 25 years, the BRICs asserted themselves as drivers of globalization. But what does their new-found prominence mean for working conditions at home? Using a novel sub-national database covering outward investment linkages and working conditions in Brazilian municipalities, this study tests whether a direct investment in Europe leads to the introduction of decent working conditions in Brazil. The empirical results provide strong support for the investing-up effect using a mixture of panel data analysis and text analysis. The results suggest that economic integration with high-standard developed countries can act as a powerful mechanism for labor standard improvements in developing countries.

南北投资联系和巴西的体面工作
在过去的25年里,金砖四国宣称自己是全球化的推动者。但是,他们新获得的突出地位对国内的工作环境意味着什么呢?本研究使用了一个涵盖巴西城市对外投资联系和工作条件的新型次国家级数据库,测试了在欧洲的直接投资是否会导致巴西引入体面的工作条件。采用面板数据分析和文本分析相结合的实证结果为投资效应提供了强有力的支持。研究结果表明,与高标准发达国家的经济一体化可以作为发展中国家提高劳动标准的有力机制。
