| This paper shows that even if educational inequality is measured by the Gini coefficient, we could produce an educational Kuznets curve under certain conditions. Using the Barro and Lee data set, it examines the evolution of the education Gini coefficient under different sets of conditions. The paper presents an educational Kuznets curve when the proportion of those with no formal education is very small or when they receive informal education equivalent to a small amount of formal education. |
