Constructing a two-country, two-good, two-factor model of international trade under quasi-linear utility functions, we obtain a Modified Heckscher-Ohlin (MHO) Theorem that relates the trade pattern to the international distribution of factor endowments. We also show that the MHO Theorem survives...

Constructing a two-good (a competitive and monopolized goods), two-primary factor (capital and labor) and two-country model of international trade where the monopolized sector is subject to increasing returns to scale, we establish an oligopolistic version of the Heckscher-Ohlin Theorem.

We build an overlapping generations model of endogenous growth driven by human capital formation. Young people differ in their innate abilities, but these differences are not known even by the individuals themselves when they are going through the process of education, so that there are no...

We show that the Kemp-Wan proposition concerning the formation of customs union holds under conditions of imperfect competition and increasing returns.

This paper introduces a new duality concept, factor income function, in order to establish the factor Price Equalization theorem and the Heckscher-Ohlin theorem in an oligopolistic Heckscher-Ohlin model with increasing returns to scale.

We formulate a two-country endogenous growth model which explain joint determination of long-run trade patterns and world growth rates. After providing the existence and local stability of the continuum of balanced growth paths, we show that main standard trade propositions hold under some...

This paper presents a simple overlapping generations model of small open economy with child-parent externality that exhibits chaotic equilibrium dynamics.

We present a specific utility function which generates Giffen behavior. The derived demand function of each good is not only continuous in its price and income but also partly increasing in its price and decreasing in income. Moreover, we show that Giffen behavior is compatible with arbitrary...

The purpose of this paper is to provide reasonable microfoundation to justify the concept of a conjectural valuations equilibrium which is often used in the literature on the private provision of public goods by incorporating an explicit dynamic process of learning with the help of the...

We show that indeterminacy arises nadiscrete-time competitive two-country dynamic model of international trade in which externalities, imperfect competition, public goods, and government intervention are assumed away. The present model is a standard dynamic trade model in the sense that there is...
