Human Capital and Externalities in Cities
We combine growth theory with US Census data on individual schooling and wages to estimate the aggregate return to human capital and human capital externalities in cities.

We find no evidence for aggregate human capital externalities in cities however. Our...
متن کاملHuman Capital and Productivity in US Cities
In an empirical analysis, considering 236 U.S. cities in the period 1980-1990, we document a strong positive correlation between local supply of education skills and their return.

Technical progress, a...

The objective of the paper is to identify the impact of strategic interactions between consecutive generations on the time path of human capital accumulation. To this end, we characterize the Markov perfect equilibriu...
