Abstract | Census data from 1940 to 1990 are used to analyze the relationship between educational achievement and economic progress. Results are inconsistent with the policy assumption that investing in education leads to economic increases, particularly for rural and low-income states. Noneconomic goals, such as fostering community development, should be given more weight in educational-policy discussions. Contains 31 references. (Author/TD) |
