Humankapital und endogenes Wachstum

Abstract

In the paper a growth model is developed which admits endogenous growth. Endogenous growth is due to simultaneous efficient accumulation of physical as well as human capital. In contrast to similar growth models, we assume that output can be transformed into either physical or human capital according to a linear transformation technology. The resulting model is particularly simple and entails sharp empirical predictions. Various empirical tests of that approach and the neoc1assical growth model are performed.
