dc.description.abstract | This paper examines the effect of human capital on the growth of ICT-intensive industries using data from a sample of open economies over the period 1980-1999. Our econometric analysis suggest that value added and employment in ICT-intensive industries grew relatively faster in countries with a higher ex-ante human capital stock and in countries with a fast improvement in human capital. Further, in countries with fast human capital accumulation, labour productivity in ICT-intensive industries grew faster. Our results are robust to controls for other determinants of industry growth and country characteristics affecting industry specialisation and to using alternative human capital measures. | en |
