摘要

摘要本研究的重点是估计1950年至2012年期间佛得角经济的人力资本存量。根据Barro和Lee提出的方法，基于过去的教育价值观，我们发现在1950年至2012年间，佛得角劳动年龄人口的教育水平逐渐提高，从20世纪50年代的0.7年教育水平上升到2012年末的5.4年。因此，每年平均受教育年限仅增加0.08年，这意味着，按净值计算，平均而言，只有7.6%的劳动年龄人口接受某种程度的正规教育。佛得角平均受教育年限的时间序列为评估人力资本对该国经济发展的影响开辟了可能性。

Measuring the stock of human capital in Cape Verde, 1950‐2012

Abstract The present study focuses on the estimation of the human capital stock for the Cape Verdean economy in the period 1950‐2012. Adapting the methodology proposed by Barro and Lee, based on past schooling values, we found that between 1950 and 2012 the Cape Verdean working-age population showed a gradual improvement in the levels of schooling, rising from 0.7 years of schooling in the 1950s to 5.4 in late 2012. Thus, in each year, the average years of schooling increased only 0.08 years, meaning that, in net terms and on average, only 7.6 per cent of the working-age population was attending some level of formal education. The availability of a time series of number of average schooling years in Cape Verde opens up possibilities for assessing the impact of human capital on the country's economic development.

期刊介绍： The Portuguese Journal of Social Science is a peer-reviewed cross-disciplinary journal focusing on research about Portuguese society by scholars of any nationality. However, the journal takes a broad view and accepts articles that are not exclusively devoted to the Portuguese case. We particularly welcome comparative studies. While the journal concentrates on research articles it operates a flexible policy in respect of other types of submission, including book reviews.
