摘要

Beckers theory on the economics of discrimination suggests that enhanced competition creates arnbusiness environment that discourages employers from paying racial earnings differences. Thisrnstudy tests this hypothesis by examining black-white earnings differentials for public transit busrndrivers for pre- and post-privatization periods. The findings reveal an erosion of the racial earningsrndifferential in the post-privatization period which is consistent with the Becker hypothesis. Thernfindings also reveal that public transit black union drivers earned more than their whiterncounterparts prior to privatization. City residency accounts for 43 percent of this pre-privatizationrnpremium. However, the city-residency earnings advantage and the black-white union premiumrndeclined appreciably in the post-privatization period.
