摘要：The gender gap is greater in Japan than in any other advanced industrial country whether it be measured in terms of wages, participation or form of employment. One thesis holds that this gender gap is a function of individual worker choice, an alternative argues that it is caused by discrimination in the treatment of women on the part of corporations. The two theses are not mutually incompatible. The latter one can be subdivided into two: the arguments respectively from what might be called statistical discrimination and that from irrational discrimination.
