Paul Stock

Did you intend to suggest two specific articles in your question or are you asking the reader to suggest two articles?

If you want the reader to suggest two articles, then I would suggest the following two articles for a master course in Economic Growth:

http://www.nber.org/papers/w0803

"Human capital and Growth in cross-country growth regressions, Swedish Economic Policy Review, Volume 6, Number 2, Autumn 1999

Gregorio Gimenez

Tank you Paul. I want to give the papers to the students. And they have to read them an comment them in class.

Hasret Balcioglu

You can also provide this article to your students:

"The impact of human capital on economic growth: a review"

by Rob A. Wilson, Geoff Briscoe

This paper will be very useful in the class. Thank you for the advice, Hasret. Kind regards,

Gregorio
