Human Capital: Level versus Growth Effects

Author

Listed:
  • Cannon, Edmund

Abstract

The endogenous growth literature includes two competing views concerning the influence of human capital on output growth: human capital may be a conventional input and determine just the level of output or it may be essential to raise productivity via R&D. Distinguishing empirically between these two alternatives is important. This paper shows that the suggestion by Aghion and Howitt (1998) for how to distinguish the two approaches will not work.
