Abstract

El objetivo de este artículo es ofrecer una revisión de la literatura económica sobre el análisis de la demanda de educación superior desde una perspectiva microeconómica, en la que los individuos toman la decisión racional y previsora sobre los recursos que dedicaran a su educación. Entre las teorías fundamentales de esta revisión se puede resaltar la teoría del capital humano y sus críticas como el modelo de consumo, la senalización y el enfoque social. Es importante anotar que la literatura económica sobre la demanda de educación es mucho más numerosa en países desarrollados que en países en vía de desarrollo, principalmente por que los desarrollos teóricos y empíricos se han generado en Estados Unidos y en Europa. Sin embargo, la literatura en los países en vía de desarrollo es creciente.
