This paper examines racial inequality in Singapore front a dual economy perspective. Data come from the 1982-88 Report in The Census of Industrial Production and Labour Force Survey. Findings show that the dual economy theory is not useful in explaining racial inequality. Racial minorities are not overrepresented in the core as predicted by the theory. However, the decomposition of incomes shows that income inequalities among racial groups are due to discrimination. The source of this discrimination is the segregation of racial minorities in lower paying occupations and industries. The helpful comments of John Dixon and the reviewer are gratefully acknowledged. Earlier visions of this research were presented in the Canadian Sociology and Anthropology Conference, Calgary, Canada (1994) and the Fourth Southeast Asia Business Research Conference, Ann Arbor, Michigan (1993). Address all comments to the author at the Department of Social Sciences, Lingnan College, 15 Stubbs Road, Hong Kong. |
