Abstract

This work analyzed the effects of human capital on world growth using snapshot data from 1995 and the DRC with the time series from 1970 to 1994 and also analyzes the income gaps between the different countries of the world And the DRC. The analysis was made using the Solow model with human capital developed by Mankiw, Romer and Weil (1992) and the results show that the stock of human capital affects positively and significantly the global growth but as for the DRC it affects negatively Growth but not in a significant way. And there are considerable income gaps between the DRC and the developed countries, but these gaps are not significant with developing countries.
