摘要：

We examine empirically the role of human capital, together with global and domestic technologies, in the evolution of unemployment in Singapore. Our results show a threshold level of human capital, below (above) which increases (decreases) in human capital will reduce (raise) unemployment. This nonmonotonic relationship is caused by a greater substitution from labour toward technology feasible at higher levels of human capital.
