Household Income Dynamics in Two Transition Economies

of household incomes allowing for endogenous attrition. Our estimates for Hungary and Russia in the 1990s reveal … significant nonlinearity in the dynamics, consistent with the claim that income inequality attenuates growth in mean income …We test for the existence of poverty traps and distribution-dependent growth using a nonlinear dynamic panel data model …

Social network capital, economic mobility and poverty traps
Chantarat, Sommarat; Barrett, Christopher - In: Journal of Economic Inequality 10 (2012) 3, pp. 299-342
This paper explores the role social network capital might play in facilitating poor agents’ escape from poverty traps. We model and simulate endogenous link formation among households heterogeneously endowed with both traditional and social network capital who make investment and technology...

Rich Nations, Poor Nations: How Much Can Multiple Equilibria Explain?
Graham, Bryan; Temple, Jonathan - In: Journal of Economic Growth 11 (2006) 1, pp. 5-41
This paper asks whether the income gap between rich and poor nations can be explained by multiple equilibria. We explore the quantitative implications of a simple two-sector general equilibrium model that gives rise to multiplicity, and calibrate the model for 127 countries. Under the...

Rich Nations, Poor Nations: How Much can Multiple Equilibria Explain?
Graham, Bryan S; Temple, Jonathan - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2001
The idea that income differences between rich and poor nations arise through multiple equilibria or ‘poverty traps’ is as intuitive as it is difficult to verify. In this Paper, we explore the empirical relevance of such models. We calibrate a simple two-sector model for 127 countries, and...

Economic growth and multiple equilibria: A critical note
Gaspar, J.; Vasconcelos, P.B.; Afonso, O. - In: Economic Modelling 36 (2014) C, pp. 157-160
Recent literature on economic growth points towards the possibility of the existence of multiple equilibria, under … certain conditions. In this paper we use a growth model with a public health infrastructure to analyze, in detail, its local …, meaning that the so called “growth miracles” in some literature may be less likely to occur. Numerical computations illustrate …
