This paper studies the different mechanisms and the dynamics through which demography is channeled to the economy. We analyze the role of demographic changes in the economic development process by studying the transitional and the long-run impact of both the rate of population growth and the...

In this paper, we intend to offer a critical view of the different concepts of capital and of the different methods which are used to measure it. At the same time, we propose an endogenous approach which tries to measure the capital stock in terms of value, explicitly referring to depreciation...

In this paper we propose a method for solving in closed form a general class of non-linear modified Hamiltonian dynamic systems (MHDS). This method may be used to analyze some intertemporal optimization problems With a predetermined structure involving unbounded technological constraints. The...

We examine the dimension reduction method and prove that it could be isleading if we try to get some insight tinto the dynamics of the original system from the dynamics of the transformed system alone. The reduced system seemingly may give rise to a continuum multiplicity of steady states when,...
