This paper presents a strategic growth model with endogenous time preference. Due to the potential lack of concavity and the differentiability of the value functions associated with each agent’s problem, we employ the theory of monotone comparative statics and supermodular games based on order...

We study the effects of energy saving technological progress and substitution of renewable energy resources with non-renewable resources on natural resource depletion and long run growth. We develop a growth model in two-period overlapping generations framework incorporating the presence of both...

We introduce a minimal notion of altruism and use it to refine Nash equilibria in normal form games. We provide three independent existence proofs, relate minimally altruistic Nash equilibrium to other equilibrium concepts, conduct an in-depth sensitivity analysis, and provide examples where...
