Four stylised facts of aggregate economic growth are set up initially. The growth process is interpreted to represent transitional dynamics rather than balanced-growth equilibria. Against this background, the fundamental importance of subsistence consumption is comprehensively analysed....

To gain insights into the mechanisms that shape the interaction between economic growth and climate change, we analyze the simplified DICE through the lens of growth theory. We analytically show that this model exhibits a continuum of saddle-point stable steady states, a property that carries...

We investigate the dynamic effects of interregional labor market integration on migration flows, capital formation, and the price for housing services. The co-evolution of these variables depends on initial conditions at the time of labormarket integration. In an initially capital-poor economy,...
