  • This paper is focused on the study of the role of education at individual and society level and its increasing importance in the last decades. With the purpose of studying the changing importance of education at individual level we estimate the unemployment probabilities for different population categories over the last two decades. The model applied for obtaining the unemployment probabilities is based on the one used by Nickell (1979), our study refers to the Spanish labour market.
