Abstract
This research mainly focuses on the impact of trade liberalization on the gender wage gap in the labor market. Collecting the evidences from countries in a worldwide range, the impact of trade liberalization on gender wage gap is supposed to be analyzed on a domestic industrial level. An empirical OLS estimates model is applied inside the U.S. domestic labor market. The data comes from PSID data base of 1985 and 1995. Linking the empirical result to the industrial shift and labor structure shift caused by trade liberalization, the relationship between trade and gender wage gap can be discussed and concluded.
