摘要

我们研究了美国通勤区“警卫劳工”的兴起——定义为专门从事劳动力提取的职业。1950年至2017年，从事警卫工作的劳动力比例从19.5%上升到29.4%。我们探索了当地劳动力市场与警卫劳动的相关性，并验证了劳动纪律模型的几个预测，同时将模型扩展到当代种族资本主义的背景下。从事警卫工作的劳动力比例与家庭收入基尼系数正相关，与工会劳动力比例负相关，与当代当地种族仇恨指标正相关。与劳动纪律模型相一致的是，从事监管职业的劳动力比例的增加对非监管工资有显著的负向影响。JEL分类:O17, P16, Z13, B51, B52

The Rise of Guard Labor in the United States: Evidence from Local Labor Markets

We examine the rise of “Guard Labor”—defined as occupations devoted to labor extraction—at the commuting zone level in the United States. Between 1950 and 2017 the share of the labor force employed in guard labor increased from 19.5 percent to 29.4 percent. We explore the local labor market correlates of guard labor and validate several predictions of the labor discipline model, while extending the model to the context of contemporary racial capitalism. The share of the labor force employed in guard labor is positively correlated with the household income Gini coefficient, negatively correlated with the fraction of the labor force in a union, and positively correlated with contemporary measures of local racial animosity. Consistent with the labor discipline model, an increase in the share of the labor force employed in supervisory occupations has a significant negative effect on nonsupervisory wages.

期刊介绍： The Review of Radical Political Economics (RRPE) promotes critical inquiry into all areas of economic, social, and political reality. As the journal of the Union for Radical Political Economics, RRPE publishes innovative research in political economy broadly defined including, but not confined to, Marxian economies, post-Keynesian economics, Sraffian economics, feminist economics, and radical institutional economics. We are actively seeking submissions concerned with policy, history of thought, and economics and the environment. RRPE reflects an interdisciplinary approach to the study, development, and application of radical political economic analysis to social problems.
