Abstract: This article analyzes the effects of quality schooling on economic growth, focusing mainly the empirical aspects of this line of research. The text aims to answer fundamental questions put forward by recent literature: What effects education had on economic growth? Has the increase of average schooling affected equally both developed and developing countries? To answer these questions, the most relevant recent empirical studies are reviewed, analyzing not only their econometric results but also their methodologies. Then, econometric estimates are performed, bringing to light new evidence on the issue. They are more conclusive than previous results found in the literature, showing that effective education has a positive effect on growth.
