讲座简介

this study provides a unified framework for human capital measurement and discusses various related empirical issues. we establish a theoretical linkage between human capital measurement at the individual level and at the aggregate level for an economy. under the framework, we discuss in detail human capital components, both observed and unobserved, and the complications in summing up individual human capital to aggregate measures due to substitutability among different skilled labor.

human capital has both education-based and wage-based measures. wage-based measures include the jorgenson-fraumeni lifetime income measure, relative wage-based efficiency units, and the newly developed measure using the generalized division of labor. we estimate the various regional human capital indexes using data from china during 1985-2018 and further investigate how human capital measurement affects the study of regional convergence. our results show that human capital measures can display substantially different regional distributions and dynamics, and the role of human capital on reginal economic convergence depends on the measurement as well as on economic development stages.
