An extraordinary piece of work by @Nitin_K_Bharti and Li Yang, showcasing human capital trajectories in India and China using historical reports dating back to 1900! A must read.
A new India-China fact (to me):
The Chinese state prioritized primary education over secondary/tertiary, while the Indian state did the opposite.
Chinese primary enrollment rate passed India in 1950, secondary 1975, and tertiary only in 2000!View quoted post on X
