In this paper we study the problem of exhaustible resources and renewable resources in a theoretical endogenous growth framework, under various assumptions. In particular, we consider the hypotheses that those two inputs are or are not technologically perfect substitutes of each other. Moreover,...

Traditional resource economics has been criticised for assuming too high elasticities of substitution, not observing material balance principles and relying too much on planner solutions to obtain long-term growth. By analysing a multi-sector R&D-based endogenous growth model with exhaustible...

Campbell (1980) and following authors have disussed a limited resoure extration capacity as an augmentation of the well-known Hotelling model. We integrate a limited extraction capacity and related investments in the endogenous growth model of Tsur & Zemel (2005) to study its effect on economic...
