A central element in the canonical Kaleckian growth model is the demand-led output-adjustment stability condition known as the Keynesian stability condition. This condition requires that, all else constant, saving be more responsive to changes in capital capacity utilization than investment....

The recent literature has shown that income inequality is one of the main causes of borrowing and debt accumulation by working households. This paper explores the possibility that household indebtedness is an important cause of rising income inequality. If workers experience rising debt burdens,...

This paper develops a post-Keynesian dynamic model of accumulation, growth and distribution in which endogenous technological innovation plays a significant role. Firms' rate of labour-saving technological innovation is made to depend non-linearly on the distributive (wage and profit) shares,...

We examine the dynamic impact of the functional distribution of income on the import demand in developed and developing countries. Drawing upon a motivating accounting structure suggesting a causal effect of the functional distribution of income in an extended version of a standard import...

We explore the short-term macrodynamics of stabilization policy at the effective lower bound (ELB) of the nominal interest rate, in an environment characterized by heterogenous and endogenously time-varying private-sector output and inflation expectations driven by evolutionary dynamics. We show...

Purpose – The aim of this paper is to contribute to the literature on balance‐of‐payments‐constrained growth by providing an innovative empirical evaluation of a disaggregated version of the so‐called Thirlwall's Law derived from a Pasinettian multisectoral framework....

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the literature on demand-driven Keynesian growth in open economies by developing a formal model that combines Dixon and Thirlwall’s (1975) export-led growth model and Thirlwall’s (1979) balance-of-payments constrained growth model into a...
