This approach has yielded many interesting results, including a solution to the dilemma of two ongoing crises since 2004: the rural labor surplus and severe shortage of migrant labor. While male workers generally received less favorable treatment and consequently enjoyed a lower average employment probability than female workers in 1996, they also received preferential treatment over female workers, who otherwise had identical worker characteristics in 2005. We provide new estimates for male-female hourly wage differentials in urban China, and our results indicate that the hourly wage differentials and the unexplained part of the hourly wage differentials are smaller than the differentials obtained by ignoring the sample selection bias. We study China's new dual labor market, which is shifting from a rural migration versus urban workers setup to informal workers versus formal workers setup, and present some interesting results. Our study is the first to adopt the IV methodology and the Heckman (1979) two-step procedure simultaneously for the estimation of economic returns on schooling in China. 000696574 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from PDF (ebrary, viewed January 6, 2014). 000696574 650_0 $$aMigrant labor$$zChina. 000696574 650_0 $$aLabor market$$zChina. 000696574 7001_ $$aHamori, Shigeyuki,$$d1959-$$eauthor. 000696574 830_0 $$aSpringerBriefs in economics. 000696574 85280 $$bebk$$hSpringerLink 000696574 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-41109-0$$zOnline Access 000696574 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:696574$$pGLOBAL_SET 000696574 980__ $$aEBOOK 000696574 980__ $$aBIB 000696574 982__ $$aEbook 000696574 983__ $$aOnline 000696574 994__ $$a92$$bISE
