| Résumé : | We explore the relationship between economic volatility and human capital formation within a context of migration. We show that increased variability may raise the average educational level of the population even after netting out expected migration. In particular, we demonstrate that this is the case when individuals' abilities and the economy-wide shock are uniformly distributed. |
