The article examines human capital in different regions of China from 1985 to 2014. The researchers used a framework to measure human capital beyond just education levels. They found that different regions in China have varying levels of human capital, which are linked to economic indicators like GDP. Factors like education, urbanization, aging population, and gender composition all play a role in the growth of human capital in each region.
