The paper presents a human capital driven endogenous growth model which, in general, permits a multiplicity of equilibrium balanced growth paths. It is shown that allowing for perfect capital mobility across countries increases the range of parameter values for which the model permits...

We use a dynamic spatial general equilibrium model of international investment and production to investigate the real implications of the last five decades of financial globalization. We introduce a wedge accounting framework to estimate country- and time-varying measures of outward and inward...

We use a dynamic spatial general equilibrium model of international investment and production to in vestigate the real implications of the last five decades of financial globalization. We introduce a wedge accounting framework to estimate country- and time-varying measures of outward and inward...

This literature review connects trade and capital flows to (de)globalization, considering the main theoretical channels and empirical references to assess the current debate. The aim is to offer an integrated reference framework to study such a multifaceted global phenomenon. First, I...

Since the study of Feldstein/Horioka (1980), the high correlation between investment and saving rates is a controversial, but first of all often confirmed empirical evidence. In this paper, this correlation is investigated once again for the EU-countries in the time period from 1960 to 1997. In...

In this paper, we provide an overview of the relationship between international migration and international trade as well as capital movements. After taking a brief historical perspective, we first investigate migration flows between two countries in a static, neoclassical context. We allow for...

The purpose of this paper is to test the dependency of domestic investment on domestic saving in the Feldstein-Horioka spirit. Our innovation is to use a de nition of investment that does not include foreign direct investment. We do so since FDI should not be considered in the intertemporal...

While prior to the global financial crisis, the empirical international capital flow literature has focused on net capital flows (the current account), since the crisis there has been an increased focus on gross flows. In this paper we jointly analyze global drivers of gross flows (outflows plus...

This paper borrows the tradition of estimating policy reaction functions from monetary policy literature to ask whether capital controls respond to macroprudential or mercantilist motivations. I explore this question using a novel, weekly dataset on capital control actions in 21 emerging...
