Abstract

Face à un développement massif du phénomène de suréducation sur ces deux dernières décennies, cet article présente un modèle de fonction de production qui capture les relations entre la croissance et les désajustements offre/demande de qualifications. A partir de deux décennies de production française, notre analyse montre que ce phénomène réduit considérablement la productivité des travailleurs, en particulier pour les diplômés du supérieur. Le reclassement de ces derniers produirait, par ailleurs, un impact significatif sur la croissance du revenu national. Pourtant, malgré des situations d’inadéquate correspondance entre formation et emploi plus fréquentes, les qualifications universitaires restent toujours socialement bénéfiques en terme productif.
