摘要：

This paper studies the impact of relative performance evaluation (RPE) on skilled-unskilled wage inequality. We find that in an economy with full employment, skilled-unskilled wage inequality will be expanded when the strength of RPE increases. However, when the urban sector is under the minimum wage restriction, the impact of RPE on skilled-unskilled wage inequality depends on the substitution elasticity between land and unskilled labor in the rural sector. If this substitution elasticity is sufficiently large (resp. small), skilled-unskilled wage inequality will be expanded (resp. narrowed down) when the strength of RPE rises.
