哈佛大学经济学教授

讲座概要 Lecture Synopsis

There is growing evidence that human economic progress comes from upper tail human capital – the education of managers and entrepreneurs.  One learns this from critical episodes from economic history, from the comparison of growth experiences across countries, from evidence on which cities and regions of a country are rich and which are poor, as well as from studies of which companies grow.  Both private and social human capital are critical outputs of an education system.
