Abstract:
This thesis emphasises human capital accumulation in early life, and analyses whether and how interruption of this accumulation process in childhood will influence both the stock of human capital and other socioeconomic outcomes in adulthood. Based on the theoretical framework of dynamic complementarity and the foetal origin hypothesis, Chapters 2, 3 and 4 provide empirical evidence on the life cycle mechanism of human capital investment. Chapter 2 analyses the relationship between household income and infant mortality in developing countries. Using international commodity prices as a source o

Abstract:
This dissertation comprises three chapters on the intersection between gender, development and human capital investments. The first chapter explores the impact of the rapid expansion of the Cambodian garment industry on women’s and children’s well being. It documents a sizeable increase in schooling at early ages, but also increased secondary dropouts. It also demonstrates that the growth of garment manufacturing is associated with delays in marriage and childbearing, and potentially long-lasting improvements in girls’ height.

Immigration policy and policies regarding the flow of capital across borders are generally enacted separately. Such separation may not be appropriate if there are interactions between immigration and foreign direct investment (FDI). Although much research has focused on the determinants of international migration, little agreement has been made with respect to how FDI affects migration. In this paper, we attempt to clarify the influence of FDI on migration. We consider not only how aggregate FDI into

Abstract:
Using a human capital perspective, this study investigates the relationship between the specific human capital of the top management teams of venture capital firms (VCFs) and the firms’ investment performance. The results of this study demonstrate that, in the early-stage information technology and communication (ICT) industry, VCFs’ technological expertise strongly predict better venture capital firm performance in the form of greater portfolio exit ratio. While financial expertise shows a positive but not significant effect. This study finds that although venture capital investing is a finan
