This paper explores a two-sector model of endogenous growth with AK technologies and production externalities. Unlike the standard one-sector AK model, the two-sector model may involve the relative price dynamics, so that there may exist transitional processes. It is shown that under certain...

This paper studies a two-sector model of endogenous technical change in which expansion of each production sector is associated with sector-specific R&D investment. It is shown that the pattern of growth is sensitive to the specification of intersectoral technological spillover as well as to the...

By examining two-sector models of endogenous growth with physical and human capital, this paper demonstrates that indeterminacy of equilibrium may emerge even in the absence of social increasing returns. The first model we examine assumes that both final good and new human capital production...

Using an endogenous growth model with physical and human capital, we explore short-run as well as long-run effects of fiscal policy in the presence of households' production activities. We first show that our model has a unique balanced-growth path that satisfies saddlepoint stability. We then...

This paper explores the effect of monetary policy on the speed of convergence. Using a neoclassical monetary growth model with a cash-in-advance constraint, we conduct numerical evaluation of the effect of changes in the growth rate of money supply on the converging speed of the economy. We find...

This paper extends the standard overlapping generations model of capital accumulation by introducing consumption externalities. It is assumed that each generation's felicity depends on the social level of benchmark consumption as well as on its own consumption. Since the benchmark consumption is...

This paper demonstrates that preference structure may play a pivotal role in generating indeterminacy in the stylized model of endogenous growth. By examining two-sector models of endogenous growth with human capital formation, we show that if the utility function of the representative family is...

This paper investigates a two-country model of capital accumulation with country-specific production externalities. The main concern of our discussion is to explore the presence of equilibrium indeterminacy in an open-economy setting. In contrast to the existing studies on equilibrium...

This paper construct a two-sector model of two-period lived overlapping generations with endogenous occupational choice where ability-heterogeneous agents choose whether to become educated when young and henceforth to become skilled when old. We show that endogenous occupational choice in this...

This paper studies the relation between patterns of long-term economic growth and indeterminacy of equilibrium in an endogenous growth model with human capital formation. By introducing sector-specific externalities and a non-separable utility function into the Lucas model, we show that multiple...
