The balanced growth theory and the neoclassical growth model predict that certain macroeconomic variables such as output, consumption, and investment grow at a constant rate. Analytically, it indicates that the consumption-output ratio and the investment-output ratio (termed "great ratios") must...

A vector error-correction model (VECM) of output, consumption, investment, and credit is identified and estimated, employing the Johansen-Juselius (1990) test for cointegration. Because the Austrian school views economic activity as a disequilibrium process, VECM estimates offer an empirical...

In structural vector autoregressive (SVAR) models identifying restrictions for shocks and impulse responses are usually derived from economic theory or institutional constraints. Sometimes the restrictions are insufficient for identifying all shocks and impulse responses. In this paper it is...

Structural VARs have been extensively used in empirical macroeconomics during the last two decades, particularly in … analyses of monetary policy. Existing Bayesian procedures for structural VARs are at best confined to a severly limited … handling of cointegration restrictions. This paper extends the Bayesian analysis of structural VARs to cover cointegrated …

This paper uses panel cointegration and error correction models to unveil the direction of long-run causality between the real product wage and labor productivity at the industry level. I use two datasets of manufacturing industries: the EU-Klems dataset covering 11 industries in 19 developed...

Despite similar levels of per capita income, education and technology, the development of labour income shares in OECD countries has displayed different patterns since 1960. The paper examines the role of demography in this regard. We first use a standard overlapping generations model to derive...

The paper investigates the sources of growth in the Democratic Republic of the Congo since 1960 and evaluates the relative importance of total factor productivity growth and factor accumulation, using a cointegration method and a growth accounting framework. The main findings confirm that poor...
