Funded Activity Summary

Human capital accumulation and economic growth: A multi-country general equilibrium model. The project seeks to explain the interaction between policies that affect human capital investment and the consequences of that investment for economic growth. Specifically it aims to incorporate recent developments in the theory of economic growth, and in particular a schooling sector that produces human capital, into a multi-country and multi sector model. This will overcome limitations of the current state of growth theory, associated with the high level of aggregation used in growth models - such as the effects of sector specific research subsidies research, and the effects of education subsidies on the growth of human capital specific sectors.
