This paper develops a model of North-South trade and economic development to analyze how an increase in the growth rate of population affects the growth rate of real income per capita. We assume that the North is characterized by an increasing-returns-to-scale technology while the South is...

This study extends Baumol's (1967) two-sector (manufacturing and services) unbalanced growth model to analyze a situation in which, first, services are used for both final consumption and intermediate inputs into manufacturing production, and second, the productivities of the manufacturing and...

In this study, we build a Kaleckian model incorporating institutional differences between the wage determination of regular employment and that of non-regular employment. Using this model, we investigate how an employment shift toward regular workers affects the capacity utilization rate and...

This paper investigates the effect of profit sharing on the economy by using a Kaleckian model. Unlike exiting studies, we endogenize the profit share. Our analysis shows that if the size of the productivity-enhancing effect of profit sharing is small, profit sharing decreases the equilibrium...

This paper presents a disequilibrium macrodynamic model that incorporates certain elements from Goodwin (the dynamics of the rate of employment and income distribution), Kalecki (an investment function independent of savings, and mark-up pricing in oligopolistic goods markets), and Marx (the...
