Global Externalities, Endogenous Growth and Sunspot fluctuations
We consider a two-sector economy with Cobb-Douglas technologies, laboraugmenting global external effects and increasing social returns. We prove the existence of a normalized balanced growth path and we give conditions for the occurrence of sunspot fluctuations that are compatible with both types of capital intensity configuration at the private level provided the elasticity of intertemporal su...
متن کاملA two-sector model of endogenous growth with leisure externalities
This paper considers leisure externalities in a Lucas (1988) type model in which physical and human capital are necessary inputs in both sectors. In spite of a non-concave utility, the balanced growth path is always unique in our model which guarantees global stability for comparative-static exercises. We analyze and quantify the effects of preferences toward leisure on labor supply and welfare...
متن کاملNegative Externalities and Evolutionary Implementation
We model externality abatement as an implementation problem. A social planner would like to ensure efficient behavior among a group of agents whose actions are sources of externalities. However, the planner has limited information about the agents' preferences, and he is unable to distinguish individual agents except through their action choices. We prove that if a concavity condition on aggreg...
متن کاملExternalities, Endogenous Productivity, and Poverty Traps
We present a version of the neoclassical model with an endogenous industry structure. We obtain multiple steady-state equilibria with an arbitrarily small degree of increasing returns to scale. While the most productive rms operate across all the steady states, in a poverty trap less productive rms operate as well. This results in lower average rm productivity and total factor productivity. ...
متن کاملOn Allocations with Negative Externalities
We consider the problem of a monopolist seller who wants to sell some items to a set of buyers. The buyers are strategic, unit-demand, and connected by a social network. Furthermore, the utility of a buyer is a decreasing function of the number of neighbors who do not own the item. In other words, they exhibit negative externalities, deriving utility from being unique in their purchases. In thi...
