The Barro-Lee (1994) dataset has been a standard dataset for macroeconomic cross-country analyses. After the update 10 years ago (Barro and Lee, 2000), the dataset has been once more extended and now comprises 8 more countries, covering 1950-2010. The updated working paper also includes an empirical exercise, where the effect of education on growth is re-estimated using an IV strategy (lagging parents' education). Now that's something new under sky innit?

ReplyDeleteI am looking for the full BarroLee dataset that rather than just the educational data. Do you know where I can find that? Many thanks
ReplyDeleteI do not understand what you mean by "full dataset" - BarroLee IS educational data. In any case, you can download it from: www.barrolee.com
