During the last decade, labour economists have shown an incraesing interest in explaining the behaviour of skill wage differentials as well as the evolution of the corresponding inputs' shares. Most tend to focus on the long run evolution of such variables, few on their short run fluctuations, none on both. They also tend to consider only one of the two main forces traditionally given as explanations of the behaviour of the skill shares differentials : capital akill complementarity and biased technical progress. This paper studies this bahaviour both in the long run and in the short run allowing for both of these causes to act jointly.
