Resumen

Estimamos las externalidades de la educación para las provincias españolas en el período 1995-2010. Nuestro trabajo empírico usa los dos enfoques principales disponibles en la literatura, el enfoque de la composición constante y el enfoque minceriano. Usando datos de la Muestra Continua de Vidas Laborales y analizando empíricamente el efecto del stock de capital humano sobre los salarios a nivel provincial, encontramos que las dos metodologías producen externalidades significativas.
