This paper envisages endogenous technical change as resulting from the interplay between the economic growth engine, consumption, technology and localization patterns. We perform numerical simulations with the recursive dynamic general equilibrium model IMACLIM-R to study how modeling induced...

Current debates on climate mitigation emphasize the role of the inertia of the economic system. Our aim in this paper … is to study more in depth how sectorally differentiated inertia impacts on optimal C02-emission abatement policies. Using … the STARTS model, we show that optimal abatement levels and costs differ sensibly among sectors. Differential inertia is …

This paper introduces and describes unobserved heterogeneity in earnings quintiles transition matrices in the US. Unobserved heterogeneity is found to play a crucial role in earnings mobility. Each individual is attracted, given his characteristics, towards a specific zone of the distribution....
