研究了英国军队招募尼泊尔人时引入教育筛选标准,如何促使非移民增加教育投资(平均多1.15年),即使他们并未移民,也因额外教育而受益。

Abstract

The development impacts of emigration are largely determined by the education of those who stay behind. Departure of workers leads to a direct loss of human capital but opportunities for emigration also raise expected returns to education. I examine these effects by considering the introduction of education as a selection criterion to recruit Nepalese men in the British Army. This change raised educational investments by 1.15 years and increased the average education of men living in Nepal even after allowing for emigration. Despite not being selected in the British Army or emigrating elsewhere, these non‐migrants benefited directly from additional schooling.
