內容簡介：
We investigate the impacts of tariff reduction after the entry into WTO on local labor market outcomes and household behaviors in urban China. Regions that initially specialized in industries facing larger tariff cuts experienced slower wage growth relative to other regions. Meanwhile, households responded to this negative wage shock correspondingly. First, female and older household members worked more, especially at the non-tradable sector. Second, household size increased because more young adults co-resided with their parents. Third, households saved less. These behaviors significantly buffer the negative wage shock induced by trade liberalization. As a result, the effect of trade liberalization on consumption is much weaker than its effect on wages.
