Public education expenditures and intergenerational income mobility: a logit model
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Economics and Finance (IOSR-JEF) - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 1
Abstract
Using data from the National Survey of Living Standards of Households in Morocco conducted in 2007 (NSLSHM 2007), we show that intergenerational income mobility (IIM) in Morocco is lower compared to that recorded in industrialized countries, namely, USA , Great Britain and Germany.We also show that education plays a minor role in comparison with the role it plays in the industrialized countries in the process of income mobility, mainly because of its lowefficiency. In addition, secondary education contributes negatively to mobility.The robustness of these results is supported by both the models borrowed from the literature and our logit model.Other factors such as activity sector and area of residence are also analyzed.
