Rates of Return to Education in Brazil: Do Labor Market Conditions Matter?
Overview & Synopsis
Presents new estimates of the rates of return to Brazilian education in 1989. Modifies customary Mincerian methodology to capture the wage effects of changes in the labor force's educational structure. Results suggest that workers with less than university education compete with each other (are substitutes), whereas more highly educated workers are complements to those with less education.
