Abstract

[fre] La relation entre la structure du marché et les parts de revenu est analysée en comparant les études empiriques de quatre pays développés avec les données du recensement de 1986 pour Taiwan, dans le cadre d'une structure dualiste. Dans le premier pays, les structures de marché tendent à favoriser la part du capital au détriment de celle du travail. Dans le dernier cas, les industries ont été réparties d'une part selon leur orientation vers l'exportation ou vers le marché domestique et d'autre part selon leur forte intensité en capital ou en travail. Le test effectué permet de rejeter l'hypothèse dans le premier cas, mais le confirme dans le second.. D'une manière générale, les structures de marché ont peu, voire pas, d'influence que ce soit au niveau de l'ensemble de l'industrie manufacturière ou que ce soit au niveau des sous-groupes. [eng] The relationship between market structure and income shares is investigated by comparing the empirical research from four industrialized economies and by using 1986 census data to study the case of Taiwan under a dualistic structure framework. In the former, market structure elements seem to favor the share of capital at the expense of labor. In thelatter, industries were divided into (1) export-oriented and domestic-oriented groups, and (2) capital-intensive and labor-intensive groups. The Chow test rejected the two-regime hypothesis for the first group, but confirmed this hypothesis for the second group. Overall, market structure elements had little or no impact on either the whole manufacturing sector or on the two divided groups.
