Abstract | "Wage theory has long relied upon Human Capital theory as an explanation of skilled wages with labor economists attempting to find the appropriate specification for the return to education. Shaikh and Glenn (2018) construct an alternative model of skilled wages called the Social Labor hypothesis. Instead of returns to education, the Social Labor hypothesis posits wages as a function of social costs of education. This paper tests the empirical validity of the Social Labor hypothesis comparing it against the Human Capital model, finding a remarkable fit to empirical data. The paper also provides a theoretical approach to, and empirical evidence of, labor market discrimination." (Author's abstract, IAB-Doku). |
