Human Capital in Transition, Czech Students and Workers Adapting to the Market

Daniel Münich

in CERGE-EI Books from The Center for Economic Research and Graduate Education - Economics Institute, Prague

Abstract: This book provides a detailed analysis of the transition experience of Czech workers and students. The first chapter starts with a cross-sectional comparative study of the transition from communist to market wage structures and returns to human capital. The second chapter provides insight into workers' mobility and the resulting wage gains, which underlie the changes in the observed cross-sectional patterns. The third chapter sheds light on the profound changes in the schooling system and the behavior of students and schools in light of the emerging labor market for human capital.
