Overview of educational expansion, productivity and inequality : a comparative analysis of the East African natural experiment
Knight, J. B | Sabot, Richard H
An overview is provided of a research project comparing the restrictive policy for secondary education in Tanzania with the more expansionist policy in Kenya. This "natural experiment" is exploited, by means of specially designed urban labor market surveys, to examine the relationship between secondary education and its expansion, labor productivity, the structure and inequality of pay, educational access and intergenerational mobility. The two policy regimes are evaluated and more general policy implications are drawn out.
