Technological Progress, Income Distribution and Unemployment in the Less Developed Countries

In this paper we investigate the effects of technological progress on income distribution, and unemployment, in the framework of the original Harris-Todaro model. We study several forms of technological progress that takes place both in the urban and the rural sector of the economy. One basic result of our analysis is that no form of technological progress can be immiserizing, despite the presence of a wage distortion, and urban unemployment
