BARRERA INSUA, Facundo  y  FERNANDEZ MASSI, Mariana. La dinámica productiva como límite superior de los salarios en la industria argentina. Perf. latinoam. [online]. 2017, vol.25, n.50, pp.301-329. ISSN 0188-7653.  https://doi.org/10.18504/pl2550-014-2017.

The aim of this research is to contribute to the debate on the factors that determine workers’ wages. This paper focuses its analysis on the inter-industry differentials in the relationship between productivity and wages in Argentina during 2003-2012. Based on quantitative analysis we distinguish patterns of evolution of that relationship. We conclude that there has been an increase of real wages greater than that of productivity for all industrial sectors during the first five years (2003-2007); while in the next five years the performance has been mixed. Thus, the reduction in wage inequality has not been explained by a similar reduction in the productive inequality.
