This paper provides an overview of methodologies used to analyze inter-regional income inequality, and a critical survey of empirical studies that deal with Russian regions. It discusses implications of the growth theory regarding dynamics of inter-economy income inequality. Methodologies for...

This paper studies the evolution of the distribution of firms in the ferrous metals industry by efficiency levels. The proposed model takes into account interaction of processes of creation and adoption of technologies and depreciation of assets. It is shown that the model approximates real data...

We conduct a comprehensive study of macroeconomic modeling methods, new theories of economic growth and the impact of technology and institutions on economic growth, in order to formulate the basic characteristics that are critical for efficient technological and institutional effects modeling....

It is given an overview of recent studies that use equations of mathematical physics, their analogs and modifications for describing endogenous evolution of technologies. A master equation is proposed that includes, as special cases, a number of known models of Schumpeterian dynamics. A scheme...

By using the Pontryagin maximum procedure the author has found an optimal dynamic rule for the distribution of labor, investment, and material resources between the sectors of the open three-sector economy according to the maximi-zation criterion of discounted marginal consumption

The paper provides a framework for analysis of optimal growth enhancing policy in the economy with market and government failures. It develops an endogenous growth model with strategic complementarities between R&D investments of firms and investments in training of households. The model...

Following methodological approach proposed by Edwards, the paper estimates empirically Russia's equilibrium real exchange rate (ERER) for the period 1995–2003. ERER is defined as the relative price of non-tradables to tradables consistent with the simultaneous achievement of internal and...

In this work we build a Bayesian vector autoregression model to estimate the impact of global economic activity shocks, supply shocks in the global oil market, as well as speculative oil shocks on key macroeconomic variables of the Russian economy: GDP, household consumption, fixed capital...
