Abstract In this paper, we reflect on the impact of uncertainty on standard issues in the theory of
human capital: demand for education and returns to education. We also reflect on implications for an altogether ignored issue, the optimal design of school systems or
curricula. The conclusions are summed up as a research agenda.
