- Human capital is supposed to be an important factor for innovation and economic development. However, the long-run impact of human capital on current innovation and economic development is still a black box, in particular at the regional level. Therefore, this paper makes the link between the past and the present. Using a large new dataset on regional human capital and other factors in the 19 th and 20 th century, we find that past regional human capital is a key factor explaining current regional disparities in innovation and economic development.
