Overview

The literature in development economics and labor economics includes many studies of the importance of and rewards to training and education of workers, for both employers and employees. This book develops a graph showing the occupational educational requirement levels from advertisements from both public and private occupations and presents salaries associated with these educational levels. The study thus provides empirical results concerning the returns to education that are relevant to one of the major economic events of the late 20th century, the 1992 dissolution of the command-driven Soviet economy and subsequent restructuring of the economies of the former Soviet republics, as well as contributing to the wider literature on transitional economies. Issues surrounding education and training are especially pertinent in developing economies because the basic economic models taught to and applied by managers change dramatically during the development process.
