abstract = {A recent paper by Dollar and Kraay (2001) finds that higher primary
educational attainment of the workforce does not increase the income of
the poor except for its effect on average income. We test the robustness of
their finding by using a broader measure of human capital that accounts
for international differences in the quality of education. Our findings
suggest that more quality-adjusted education does increase the income of
the poor in addition to its positive effect on average income. Hence
effective education policies should be an essential component of any
poverty-reduction strategy.},
