Wages are a vital economic variable in their influence on employment and unemployment and as the main source of personal income, affecting both living standards and labour incentives. Wage determination is studied here in an international perspective, using a common theoretical framework and statistical method through the individual country chapters to reveal similarities and differences between Japan, South Korea, the United States, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom, Germany and France.

In general, wage differential is recognized as an important factor in migration, which is crucial to an economy. It is a key issue, especially in Korea, which faces “mono-centric development” around the capital area. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to identify the determinants of inter-city and intra-city wage differentials and to identify some implications in regional policy. Since 2003, Korea has taken regional policy more seriously; because the over-concentration issue has been gaining more attention not only in academic side but also in terms of its social effects. As regional disparity between the capital area and non-capital area has increased, balanced development has been come more into focus. In order to analyze regional disparity across regions and within regions, we need to first identify income levels. However, there was no appropriate measurement to compare regional economies except Gross Regional Domestic Product(GRDP), which deals with the production side. This measure may not reflect individual behavior in choosing their location. Therefore, it is not an appropriate proxy for regional income level. On the other hand, wages, the cost of living, and amenities are the most important factor in choosing resident location according to the Roback model. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the wage level across regions. For that, city boundaries are supposed to be delineated in terms of economic geography, which is different according to administrative district in general. Since metropolitan areas are usually defined by commuting flow, Korean Metropolitan Statistical Areas(MSAs) delineated by Kim et al.(2008) has been used here to determine the economic spatial range of cities.This research contributes to regional economic analysis comparing wage differentials among and within cities in Korea in that this is a first attempt to compare wages across cities. Further, inter-city wage differentials were measured by average wage in the MSAs and intra-city wage differentials was measured by the wage ratio of high income occupations to low income occupations. Then, the determinants of those wage differentials were analyzed for regional policy implications.
