Post-Keynesian macrodynamics is designed to extend the role of demand in the determination of real economic outcomes beyond the short run. The purpose of this paper is to highlight the importance of supply-side considerations in demand-led growth. Building on existing features of the supply side...

The shift of labour out of the agricultural sector and into the manufacturing and services sectors seems to be an important factor in explaining why some countries are so much richer than others.

This paper discusses the financial sustainability of demand-led growth models. We assume a supermultiplier growth model in which household consumption is the autonomous component of demand that drives growth and discuss the financial sustainability of such dynamics of growth from the perspective...

Socially responsible investment (SRI) evolved, along the last two decades, from an almost unexplored topic inscience to a recurrent theme of research and debate in Economics and Finance. The growing interest on the theme has two fundamental causes. On one hand, empirical evidence unveils a...

Corruption and informality are issues which have attracted a great amount of empirical research, since they are variables that can affect economic development in various and complex ways, with direct and indirect effects on economic growth.

The paper shows how the original semi endogenous and balanced growth model of , and my extended version of it (), could be useful in explaining the key "stylized facts" of global long-term growth so far, and in predicting its dynamics in the future. During the last two centuries the sector of...
