Environmental Policy, Education and Growth with Finite Lifetime : The Role of the Abtement Technology
Pautrel, Xavier - 2014
This note shows that the assumptions about the abatement technology modify the impact of the environmental taxation (both the size and the “direction”) on the long-run growth driven by human capital accumulation à la Lucas (1988), when the source of pollution is private consumption and...

Dilution effects, population growth and economic growth under human capital accumulation and endogenous technological change
Bucci, Alberto; Eraydın, Levent; Müller, Moritz - 2018
This paper answers the following two questions: 1) In the data, can we find a dilution effect of population growth also on per-capita human capital investment? If yes, 2) how can we use this fact to explain theoretically the existence of a differential impact of population change on economic...

Innovation, decentralization, and planning in a multi-region model of Schumpeterian economic growth
Batabyal, Amitrajeet A.; Nijkamp, Peter - 2014
We study innovation and the resulting Schumpeterian economic growth that this innovation gives rise to in a model with N heterogeneous regions. For each region i where i=1,...,N, our analysis leads to five findings. First, we define the balanced growth path (BGP) allocations and the equilibrium...

Technological Change, Human Capital Structure, and Multiple Growth Paths
Lee, Jong-Wha - 2010
This paper presents a theoretical model to analyze the effects of technology change on growth rates of income and human capital in the uncertain environments of technology. The uncertainty comes from two sources; the possibility of a technology advance and the characteristics of new...

The supply of hours worked and fluctuations between growth regimes
Iong, Ka-Kit; Irmen, Andreas - 2021
Declining hours of work per worker in conjunction with a growing work force may give rise to fluctuations between growth regimes. This is shown in an overlapping generations model with two-period lived individuals endowed with Boppart-Krusell preferences (Boppart and Krusell (2020)). On the...

The middle-income trap 2.0 : the increasing role of human capital in the age of automation and implications for developing Asia
Glawe, Linda; Wagner, Helmut - 2020 - Update March 2020
We modify the concept of the middle-income trap (MIT) against the background of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the (future) challenges of automation (creating the concept of the "MIT 2.0") and discuss the implications for developing Asia. In particular, we analyze the impacts of...
