Thesis (Ph.D.)--Columbia University, 2010.

The dissertation uses the 2003 Mongolian Living Standard Measurement Survey and 2004 Informal Sector Household Survey in Mongolia and 1999, 2003 and 2007 Tajik Living Standard Surveys data on earnings, years of schooling and highest educational attainment to compute the rates of returns to schooling and all levels of educational qualifications for wage earners and self-employed individuals aged 15--65 by gender, generation, marital status, ethnicity, location, sectors and firms' ownership in Mongolia and Tajikistan. The study estimates the Mincerian wage equation taking into account endogeneity and sample selection bias. Furthermore, this dissertation research explores how returns to schooling differ for individuals in the lower, medium and upper part of the wage distribution using quantile regression methodology and to what extent education exacerbates or reduces inequality in wages in Mongolia and Tajikistan.

520 $a The dissertation uses the 2003 Mongolian Living Standard Measurement Survey and 2004 Informal Sector Household Survey in Mongolia and 1999, 2003 and 2007 Tajik Living Standard Surveys data on earnings, years of schooling and highest educational attainment to compute the rates of returns to schooling and all levels of educational qualifications for wage earners and self-employed individuals aged 15--65 by gender, generation, marital status, ethnicity, location, sectors and firms' ownership in Mongolia and Tajikistan. The study estimates the Mincerian wage equation taking into account endogeneity and sample selection bias. Furthermore, this dissertation research explores how returns to schooling differ for individuals in the lower, medium and upper part of the wage distribution using quantile regression methodology and to what extent education exacerbates or reduces inequality in wages in Mongolia and Tajikistan.
520 $a The estimated rate of return to schooling for Mongolia in the early 2000s ranged from 5.6 percent to 6.5 percent for wage earners and over 7 percent for self-employed individuals. The estimated rate of return to schooling for Tajikistan in 1999 is 9.7 percent and 4.2 percent in 2003 and 2007 for wage earners. These rates of return are lower than the previous results found for other transition economies. In both countries, the returns to education are higher for females than for males. The low rates of return for men are driving down the overall rate of return to education in these economies and in the case of Tajikistan, the brutal civil war that lasted for 6 years is the another reason of the low return to education in the country. Finally, the analysis in this dissertation shows that the rate of return to one additional year of schooling of individuals who lived in the war-torn region was lower by 2.5 percent than that of persons who resided in less the war affected regions in Tajikistan.
