Direct Role

We provide evidence that college graduation plays a direct role in revealing ability to the labor market. Using the NLSY79, our results suggest that ability is observed nearly perfectly for college graduates, but is revealed to the labor market more gradually for high school graduates. Consequently, from the beginning of their careers, college graduates are paid in accordance with their own ability, while the wages of high school graduates are initially unrelated to their own ability. This view of ability revelation in the labor market has considerable power in explaining racial differences in wages, education, and returns to ability. (JEL D82, I21, I23, J24, J31)

Theory Research

The article reveals the role on human capital in the choice of the applicant’s educational strategy. There is a deepening of social differentiation which manifests in the inequality of educational opportunities for high school graduates in modern society. The theory research is based on the resource approach and the concept of social capital by P. Bourdieu. The empirical part is based on the results of qualitative and quantitative research. Main motives of the applicants’ educational strategy are identified on the basis of interviews with high school graduates from Izhevsk. The analysis results show that main motives are starting positions, personal attitudes and ambitions. Difference in human and social capitals which everyone has is identified on the basis of a questionnaire among high school graduates in 2019. It depends on the type of family and school. The most significant resource for the formation of human capital is the financial and cultural family’s potential. The family’s social status predetermines the type of school that pupils graduate as well as the possibilities of attracting other educational resources including classes with tutors. Another type of resources is the applicant’s personal capabilities. These include educational skills and abilities, the current configuration of interests and attitudes towards achievements. Children from high-ranking families have an aim to enter to universities which is located in the capital. This choice of university requires their intellectual, time and material resources. But on the other hand, a significant part of high school graduates are forced to act according to restrictions imposed by the family. For example they studied at the nearest school, used free resources to prepare for the Unified State Exam or studied on their own. This category of graduates is focused on regional universities because their choice brings balance between quality of education and the volume of material costs.

Russian Education

The dynamics of several demographic indicators of Russia - child and teenage cohorts in 1970-2000, life expectancy in 1995-2000, migration flows among federal districts in the period between two censuses of 1989 and 2002 - are considered in the article. The author puts forward the hypothesis about the influence of these indicators on the level of education in narrow and broad senses - in educational institutions and the society as a whole. He estimates the perspectives of regional higher educational institutions under conditions of absence of plan distribution of graduates and the double cyclical fall in the number of high school graduates. The agenda for the development of a two-stage system of higher education corresponding with international integration processes is formulated.
