Educational Distribution and Income Redistribution through Education in Japan
研究日本公共教育中决定教育分布和收入再分配的因素，分析公私部门教育数量、质量和入学分布的互动，并利用终身收入分布计算入学和税收份额，以消除生命周期效应。
This paper investigates the variables that determine the distribution of education and the redistribution of income through public education. It also explores interactions between quantity, quality, and enrollment distributions in the public and private sectors. It presents empirical evidence from Japan, which has opted for limited government spending on secondary and university education, a high-quality, low-quantity public system and, therefore, only moderate redistribution through education. It calculates enrollment and tax shares by lifetime income distribution within cohorts, to eliminate life-cycle effects on current earnings. Finally, it compares previous findings for several state systems in the U.S.
