印度人力资本与经济增长关系研究

An Analysis on Human Capital and Economic Growth:The Case of India

人力资本积累是经济持续增长和产业发展升级的真正源泉。本文利用永续盘存法测算了涵盖教育人力资本、科研人力资本和卫生健康人力资本的印度总人力资本存量,并借鉴Mankiw, Romer,Weil在卢卡斯内生增长理论框架下构建的包含人力资本在内的生产函数,实证检验了人力资本与印度经济增长之间的相关关系,并在此基础上测算出印度人力资本、物质资本及简单劳动力对经济增长的贡献程度。最后建议印度政府一方面须加强人力资本投资,将人口资源转化为人力资本,提升人力资本存量,另一方面应引导人力资本结构高级化发展,促进人力资本深化。

The accumulation of human capital is the real source of sustained economic growth as well as industrial development and upgradation. Using perpetual inventory method to measure the total human capital stock of India, this paper also refereed the Mankiw-Romer-Weil framework (1990) which was built on Lucas endogenous growth theory. The correlation between human capital and India’s economic growth is empirically tested. It is recommended that the India need to enhance its human capital investment and try to convert human resources into human capital. In addition,India also need to encourage the upgradation of the human capital structure and promote the deepening of human capital.
