Health, human capital, and labor market outcomes are linked though complex connections that are not fully understood. We explore these links by estimating a flexible yet tractable dynamic model of human capital accumulation in the presence of health shocks using administrative data from Chile....

Against the backdrop of Baumol's model of unbalanced growth, a recent strand of literature has presented models that manage to reconcile structural change with Kaldor's stylized fact of the relative constancy of per-capita GDP growth. Another strand of literature goes beyond this, arguing that...

Against the backdrop of Baumol's model of "unbalanced growth", a recent strand of literature has presented models that manage to reconcile structural change with Kaldor's "stylized fact" of the relative constancy of per-capita GDP growth. Another strand of literature goes beyond this, arguing...

A large body of both theoretical and empirical literature has affirmed a positive impact of human capital accumulation in the form of health on economic growth. Yet Baumol (1967) has presented a model in which imbalances in productivity growth between a progressive (manufacturing) sector and a...
