Kaldor's neo-Pasinetti theorem is examined in an economy where the rate of profit adjusts to higher effective demand through increases in the rate of capacity utilization rather than through increases in the margin of profit. A Tobinian investment function, where investment responds to the...

This paper contributes to the debate over the relationship between inequality and growth by proposing that the disparities in empirical studies derive from the fact that they have not accounted for the level of inequality as a factor that can affect the sign of the relationship. An inverted...

This note presents a simple extension of the seminal Romer (1990, Journal of Political Economy 98(2), 71â102) paper. Allowing for elasticity of substitution between labor and capital to be different from one (CES production function instead of CobbâDouglas), the following results are obtained....

This paper contributes to the debate over the relationship between inequality and inclusive growth by testing the proposition of a kinked-non linear relationship between income inequality and economic growth in a country specific context. The proposition is first confirmed with a wide panel...

This paper contributes to the debate over the relationship between inequality and growth by proposing that the disparities in empirical studies derive from the fact that they have not accounted for the level of inequality as a factor that can affect the sign of the relationship. An inverted...

We study a model of growth and mass production. Firms undertake either product innovations that introduce new luxury goods for the rich; or process innovations that transform existing luxuries into mass products for the poor. A prototypical example for such a product cycle is the automobile....

The paper surveys the neoclassical theory of growth. As a preliminary, the meaning of the adjective "neoclassical" is discussed. The basic model is then sketched, and the conditions ensuring a stationary state are illustrated. The issue of the convergence to a stationary state (and that of the...
