人力资本积累、收入分布演化与经济增长

Human Capital Accumulation,Income Distribution and Economic Growth

本文建立了一个同时含有物质资本、人力资本积累及收入分布演化的内生增长模型,来研究人力资本积累、收入分布演化与经济增长的相互作用。我们发现,更高的初始收入差异将通过直接降低人力资本增长率与间接提高下一期的物质资本与人力资本比这两个渠道对经济增长率产生负面影响。另一方面,降低收入差异能获得更高的人力资本与经济增长率,这将使得低收入国家有可能追赶上高收入国家。

This paper presents an over-lapping generation model to investigate the interaction among human capital accumulation,physical capital accumulation and income distribution.It shows that income inequality hinders economic growth via human capital formation and the ratio of physical to human capital.We also find that decreasing inequality will encourage human capital accumulation and enhance growth rate,which provides an opportunity for poor country to catch up its richer counterparts.
