Özet
The goal of this paper is to examine the education-growth nexus for 5 middle-income countries (Malaysia, Mexico, South Africa, Thailand, and Turkey) using schooling rate as the indicator of education over the period 1987-2015. The paper first performs cross-sectional dependence and heterogeneity tests and then employs the bootstrap panel Granger causality test developed by Konya (2006). According to the findings, while there is unidirectional causality from schooling rate to GDP in Thailand, there is unidirectional causality from GDP to schooling rate in South Africa. The findings of the paper indicate that schooling rate is not a good proxy for human capital. Theoretical and policy implications are discussed in the conclusion part.
