We develop a simple growth model with imperfect competition in which demand conditions can affect the dynamics of … capital accumulation, hindering or enhancing growth. In our model the elasticity of the demand schedule faced by a typical … to those found in the perfectly competitive one-sector growth model: there is a unique stationary equilibrium which is …

We develop a New Economic Geography and Growth model which, by using a CES utility function in the second … sufficiently good substitutes; 3) the regional rate of growth is affected by the interregional allocation of economic activities … even in the absence of localized spillovers, so that geography always matters for growth and 4) the regional rate of growth …

This paper examines a novel mechanism linking fertility and growth. There are three components to the model. First … transition: a rapid decline in fertility accompanied by accelerated output growth. …

This paper investigates the empirical validity of different classes of 'development trap' models of economic growth …

The paper investigates the local dynamics of a simple growth model with a public health factor. A notable feature of … contributes to labor productivity growth. From a three-dimensional dynamic system that includes physical capital, public health … undiversified growth pattern when converging on high- and low-growth equilibria.
