520 $a In chapter four I discuss the results of my analysis and close with a conclusion of my work.
520 $a This dissertation empirically and theoretically examines the effect of trade and capital account liberalization on income inequality. Chapter one introduces the motivation and the main purpose of this dissertation.
520 $a Chapter two empirically examines the effect of expansion in export and foreign direct investment (FDI) on income inequality using Thailand as a case study. The main results are as follows: expansions of export and FDI between 1981 and 1998 (1) increases the demand for capital relative to labor and decreases the demand for skilled relative to unskilled labor (2) increase the overall income inequality and the income inequality between urban and rural areas, and (3) cannot explain the decreasing episode of income inequality from 1992-1998 in Thailand. The results also suggest capital income is the most important source of changes in income inequality.
520 $a Chapter three analyzes how capital account liberalization affects income inequality, especially in developing countries where the supply of education is limited by government expenditures. The model is based on an overlapping generation model of human capital investment. Three main factors play an important role in human capital investment, i.e., the individual's innate ability, bequest, and the supply of education. Different credit market environments will change the relative importance of ability and bequest. We found that (1) if the credit market is perfect, capital account liberalization will decrease income inequality, mainly because of the reduction in wealth of higher income households. (2) If the credit market is imperfect, the effect of capital liberalization on income inequality will depend on how the liberalization affects local credit markets. Income inequality is highest when the interest rate wedge between domestic and foreign market is low, but the interest wedge between the net borrowers and the net lenders is high.
