This paper demonstrates that an increase in bargaining power of North firms relative to that of their South contractors can trigger reshoting if the NorthSouth wage differential is moderate,such that only industries with a high share of unskilled labor find outsourcing profitable.However,such an increase in North bargaining power can increase offshoring if the wage differential is so high that even industries with a low share of unskilled labor also offshore.
