摘      要:The gender education gap has been narrowing worldwide for the recent decades. We provide the first causal evidence on how foreign direct investment (FDI) affects the gender education gap in China. By exploiting the deregulation of FDI entry in 2002 in China, we find that FDI deregulation reduces the gender education gap. The finding is robust to various identification challenges. We further show that FDI shapes the gender education gap through both the job-opportunity channel, which disproportionally increases unskilled-male job demand; and the culture-spillover channel, which transmits gender-equal social norms. FDI deregulation also empowers female career in the longer run.
