“…Other studies such as Barro and Lee ( 2013 ) and Chen et al ( 2019 ) measure human capital as the average years of education and its positive effect on growth. In addition, many studies looking at enrolment as a proxy for human capital, such as Garza-Rodriguez et al ( 2020 ), applied the method of ordinary least squares to estimate the effect of secondary school enrolment as a measure of human capital on economic growth in Mexico (OLS) during the period 1971–2010. The estimated regression results show that an increase in secondary school enrolment significantly stimulates Mexico's GDP per capita.…”

China's domestic labor market has limited demand for tertiary graduates due to an unbalanced industrial structure, with a weak contribution to economic performance over the past decade. This study estimates the asymmetric effects of higher education progress (highly educated employed workforce), higher education utilization (highly educated unemployed workforce), and the separate effects of higher education utilization interactions with high-tech industries on economic growth in China from 1980 to 2020. Using a Nonlinear Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NARDL) model, this study finds that the expansion of higher education progress (the employed workforce with higher education) promotes economic growth, while contraction of higher education progress (employed workforce with higher education) reduces economic growth. Likewise, an increase in higher education utilization (the unemployed labor force with higher education) suppresses economic growth, while a decline in the higher education utilization (the unemployed labor force with higher education) promotes economic growth. The study also found that the expansion of high-tech industries and government spending on education significantly stimulate economic growth. The moderating role of higher education utilization (unemployed labor force with higher education) in the impact of high-tech industries on economic growth is significantly positive. This study strategically proposes that China's higher-educated unemployed labor force can be adjusted to high-tech industries, which need to be developed equally in all regions. Moreover, the country is required to invest more in higher education and the development of high technological industries across all regions, thus may lead to higher economic growth.

“…Por ejemplo, en 2007, el 22.7% de la población posee educación técnica, universitaria y de posgrado. Esta dinámica se ha potenciado a lo largo de los años, incrementándose el desarrollo y formación del capital humano (Garza-Rodriguez et al, 2020). En este sentido, se identifica que entre las variables existe una dinámica similar a lo largo las localidades de distintos tamaños, en el que las menores presentan tasas de crecimiento amplias con respecto a las mayores.…”

Este artículo estima la Ley de Okun (1962) para México al nivel estatal y por tamaños de localidades. Se utiliza un modelo de Panel de Vectores Autorregresivos (PVAR) para determinar los efectos de corto plazo, mientras que las funciones de Impulso-Respuesta y el Panel de Cointegración se utilizan para determinar los efectos de largo plazo para el período que va de 2005 a 2022. Los resultados verifican la existencia de la Ley de Okun para todos los estados, y para el tamaño de localidad mayor a 100 mil habitantes. Los rezagos de la tasa de crecimiento del capital humano tienen un efecto positivo en la tasa de crecimiento del desempleo, y los rezagos temporales de la tasa de desempleo tienen una incidencia negativa sobre la misma. Además, las innovaciones de estas variables presentan un comportamiento cíclico sobre el desempleo. Para el caso del análisis de largo plazo existe evidencia de una relación de largo plazo entre las variables estacionarias y una relación negativa.

In implementing the 2030 Agenda for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), gender equality is fundamental to realizing the promises of sustainability, peace, and human progress. In 2020, females made up 49.42% of Indonesia's total population, while at the same time, Indonesia's score on the Gender Development Index was lower than the world's average GDI score. This study aims to analyze the effect of gender equality on economic growth in Indonesia in 2010-2019. In this study, a descriptive quantitative analysis approach was used, with the research object being the 33 provinces of Indonesia. The model used in this study is a multiple regression equation made to handle panel data. The results showed that Women's Life Expectancy had a negative and significant effect on economic growth. In contrast, Women's Average Length of Schooling has a negative and significant effect on economic growth. The study results revealed that improving the quality of women's human resources as measured by education and health and participation rates is a necessary but not sufficient factor in driving overall economic growth. It needs to be accompanied by proper policies that favor women regarding good job opportunities, a safe work environment, and decent wagesKeywords: Gender, Growth, Life Expectancy, Mean Years of Schooling.
