Human Capital, Growth and Inequality in Transition Economies

Michael Spagat

No 3556, CEPR Discussion Papers from C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers

Abstract: Transition economies have an initial condition of high human capital relative to living standards. I explore the possible implications of this key fact by surveying and adapting literature on growth and inequality. I focus especially on the long run and policy options.
