摘要A larger economy is usually more diverse. To the extent that a more diverse economy requires more human capital, the economy takes more real resources away from growing itself into accumulating human capital. Scale effects - that a larger economy grows faster - may be compromised. This idea is formalized in an expanding variety growth model in which individual labour chooses his own human capital endogenously. We show that whether a larger population results in faster growth depends on the way how diversity affects the human capital requirement.
