本文构建了一个带有摩擦性劳动力市场的代际重叠模型来解释发展中国家持续的低教育状况。当父母没有受过教育时，他们的孩子在完成学业时经常面临困难，因此很可能一直没有受过教育。此外，如果孩子们希望同一代的其他孩子不能接受教育，他们预计公司将不会为受过教育的工人创造足够的就业机会，从而进一步阻碍他们上学。这些代际和代内机制相辅相成，造成了严重的贫困陷阱。要摆脱这一陷阱，需要有组织地联合实施学校教育补贴、对弱势儿童的支持以及提高公众意识的项目。
This paper constructs an overlapping generations model with a frictional labor market to explain persistent low education in developing countries. When parents are uneducated, their children often face difficulties in finishing school and therefore are likely to remain uneducated. Moreover, if children expect that other children of the same generation will not receive an education, they expect that firms will not create enough jobs for educated workers, and thus are further discouraged from schooling. These intergenerational and intragenerational mechanisms reinforce each other, creating a serious poverty trap. Escape from the trap requires the well‐organized and combined implementation of a subsidy for schooling, support for disadvantaged children, and public awareness programs.
