Ítem Capital humano: un factor clave en la relación innovación-productividad(Universidad EAFIT, 2020-12-01) Martinez Guerrero, Christian Alexander; Martinez-Guerrero, Christian Alexander; Ramírez, Simón; Gallego, Juan; Tamayo, Mery; Estudios en Economía y EmpresaÍtem Could the Colombian economy grow faster? How it would be possible?(Universidad EAFIT, 2021-10-17) Posada Posada, Carlos Esteban; Universidad EAFITThis paper presents an economic growth model based on the positive externalities generated by the accumulations of physical and human capital. Such externalities imply, at the macroeconomic level, increasing returns to scale. The model helps to better understand the Colombian economic growth process from 2005-2019, and make conditional forecasts. One of the big obstacles in Colombia to have higher growth rates of the per capita product in the long term is everything that is slowing down a higher human capital growth rate and a greater creation of externalities derived from human capital, that is, everything that is hindering improvements in coverage and quality of the educational process.Ítem Rationing of Formal Sector Jobs and Informality: The Colombian Case(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2018-07-01) García G.A.; Badillo E.R.; Universidad EAFIT. Departamento de Economía y Finanzas; Research in Spatial Economics (RISE)We analyse the factors that affect the decision to find employment in the formal or informal sectors taking into account the fact that there is a rationing of formal sector jobs and hence a job queue to enter that sector. Using data from Colombia, we confirm that formal job rationing does exist and that it affects around 62 per cent of the workers that find themselves in the informal labour market. Further factors determining actively seeking formal employment include personal traits, the characteristics of human capital and of the household and the wage premiums associated with working in the formal sector.

These estimates are combined with data on the private rate of return on investment in schooling to estimate the external rate of return. In 1990 the external rate of return ranged from 10% in high‐income countries to over 50% in the lowest‐income countries. The external benefits of schooling are about equal to the private benefits in high‐income countries and three times the private benefits in the lowest‐income countries.Ítem Schooling and National Income: How Large Are the Externalities? Corrected Estimates(Routledge, 2010) Breton, Theodore R.; Universidad EAFIT, Escuela de Economía y Finanzas, Departamento de Economía, Medellín, Colombia.; Escuela de Economía y Finanzas; Economía; Estudios en Economía y Empresa
