Dynamic models of structural transformation are often non-stationary, precluding balanced growth path (BGP) analysis. We develop a generalization of the BGP concept that we call a Stable Transformation Path (STraP). The STraP characterizes the medium-term dynamics of the economy in a turnpike...

Standard dynamic models of structural transformation, without knife-edge and counterfactual parameter values, preclude balanced growth path (BGP) analysis. This paper develops a dynamic equilibrium concept for a more general class of models | an alternative to a BGP, which we coin a Stable...

The existence of a unique optimum, a unique optimal stationary program, and a turnpike theorem are demonstrated for a neoclassical one sector optimal growth model. The planner's allocation problem is formulated as a discrete time deterministic, infinite horizon programming model. The production...
