This paper contemplates the robustness of Thirlwall's Law, a parsimonious expression that relates long run equilibrium growth in any one region to the product of world income growth and the ratio of the income elasticities of demand for exports and imports. Various extensions of the...

Recent Kaldorian growth models emphasize the need to reconcile the demand-led actual rate of growth and the potential rate of growth. This issue is revisited in light of criticism suggesting it is a ‘red herring’. An explicit model of the supply side is used to show that, in a...

Recent Kaldorian growth models emphasize the need to reconcile the demand-led actual rate of growth and the potential rate of growth. This issue is revisited in light of criticism suggesting it is a “red herring”. An explicit model of the supply side is used to show that, in a mature...

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...

This chapter explores the Kaldorian approach to endogenous growth theory. The central principles of this approach are explored, including the claims that growth is: (a) demandled, with trade playing a central role in aggregate demand formation; and (b) pathdependent. It is shown that both the...
