The relationship between import competition and job displacement is examined using Displaced Worker Survey data and industry-level trade quantity and price data. Analysis is undertaken for the full manufacturing workforce and for various worker types. Heterogeneity in employment effects across worker types is first reported here. Import competition is found to increase displacement rates for high school graduates, workers who have completed some college, non-union workers and workers aged 44 years or less. Increased exports, business cycle upturns and positive domestic demand shifts are all found to temper the job displacing effects of rising import competition.

In this study of the medium-term effects of trade displacement on American workers, Kletzer uses worker-level data from the US Displaced Worker Surveys to examine the pattern of reemployment following trade-related job loss. She also analyzes regional and local labor market variations, and concludes by exploring the implications of her findings for US policy on linking the labor market and international trade.

Annotation Kletzer attempts to heighten our understanding of the labor market costs of freer trade. While economy-wide net benefits may ensue from lossening trade policies, such policies do not proclude localized net losses. This book aims to measure some of these losses in the hope that future policy making will address them and the people who bear the burdon.

This study examines the underlying relationships that exist among import competition, employment risk, and worker earnings. In addition, we consider how such competitiveness and risk experienced on a prior job will affect, under both equilibrium and disequilibrium interpretations of the labor market, alternative postdisplacement job-search outcomes. Econometric models of predisplacement earnings and postdisplacement outcomes (jobless duration, reemployment, and earnings) provide insights on these relationships and in turn on the comparative job-search success of trade-displaced and "other" displaced workers.

The trade-displacement relationship is examined using observations from the 1984-2000 Displaced Worker Surveys and corresponding industry data. Increases in import penetration and decreases in import prices correlate with higher displacement rates. Considerable variation in the effects of import competition on displacement probabilities is found across worker types. For example, the estimated displacement probability for a minority female who is not a union member but who has completed some college coursework ranges from 6.44 to 7.13 percent. This is significantly higher than the range estimated (1.02 to 1.24 percent) for college-educated, white, male union members. Setting import competition values equal to zero, we see estimated displacement probabilities for such workers decrease by 0.05 to 0.07 percentage points. Non-union, minority female workers with some college education realize reductions of 0.40 to 2.56 percentage points in their probabilities. Thus, workers most at risk of displacement are also most affected by import competition.

A new methodology is developed to determine the extent to which import competition has been responsible for labor displacements and wage movements inspecific, allegedly trade-impacted sectors. The procedure involves the estimation of reduced-form wage and employment equations by sector. These equations are first derived from a more complete structural model of general equilibrium resource allocation.The proposed methodology is applied to nine manufacturing sectors in the United States. The sensitivity of employment to the domestic price of imports varies significantly across these nine sectors, whereas industry wages are relatively unaffected by movements in the price of the foreign good.Counterfactual simulations are performed under the hypothetical assumption of no intensification or abatement of import competition from 1967-1979. The differences between the paths of unemployment and wages so generated and the actual, historical paths are attributed to the effects of import competition.Imports have been responsible for the loss of a large number of jobs in only one industry, and for a significant loss in wages in two industries, among the nine studied.

This paper aims to clarify two issues related to the potential costs of international trade: How does import competition affect the risk of job loss and unemployment for exposed workers, and how does it affect local communities? At the individual level, I find that the risk of layoff and unemployment to workers in trade-exposed sectors is comparable -- or even lower -- than the risk to workers in non-traded sectors and that these risks have not increased during the period of more intense competition from Chinese imports. At the community level, Autor, Dorn and Hanson (2013) find that local areas have experienced slower job and wage growth and higher unemployment because of import competition with China. Upon analyzing their data, I conclude that their results are biased by the weaker macroeconomic performance of 2000-2007 relative to the 1990s, which played out differently across local areas. I first show that their models omit significant interaction effects between control variables and time periods. When I analyze cross-area economic changes -- rather analyzing changes within and across areas -- I find that most of the significant negative effects identified in the original analysis no longer hold, including effects on overall employment, labor force participation, and wage growth. During each period, import competition actually predicts an increase in average wages for manufacturing workers, as well as non-manufacturing workers during the 1990s period, and import competition predicts a shift toward college educated non-manufacturing jobs in the second period. Over the entire period, I find that purely domestic shocks better explain local employment and wage growth patterns. I conclude that foreign competition does not appear to elevate the risk of job loss to a greater extent than domestic competition, and people living in the communities most exposed to foreign competition are no worse off on average.
