Abstract

In diesem Arbeitspapier wird die Hypothese untersucht, dass die gesamtwirtschaftliche Leistungsfähigkeit unter dem Einfluss demographischer und bildungspolitischer Faktoren steht. Als erstes wird ein Überblick über die Entwicklung des Qualifikationsangebots und der Arbeitsproduktivität in Deutschland gegeben. In einem zweiten Schritt werden die stilisierten Fakten dieser Entwicklung mit Hilfe eines modifizierten Wachstumsmodells mit überlappenden Generationen analysiert. Es zeigt, dass Gesellschaften, die mit den Folgen eines demographischen Schocks konfrontiert werden, grundsätzlich zwei Optionen haben. Entweder sie nehmen in Kauf, dass ein geringeres Angebot an Qualifizierten zu weniger Wirtschaftswachstum führt. Oder sie schaffen die notwendigen Anreize dafür, dass das Humankapital einer schrumpfenden und alternden Bevölkerung kontinuierlich aktualisiert und stärker als bisher wachstumswirksamen Verwendungen zugeführt wird.
