This article explores the determinants of people’s growth prospects in survey data as well as the impact of the European recovery fund to future growth. The focus is on the aftermath of the Corona pandemic, which is a natural limit to the sample size. We use Eurobarometer survey data and...

In "The Race between Man and Machine: Implications of Technology for Growth, Factor Shares, and Employment," Acemoglu and Restrepo (2018b) combine the task-based model of the labor market with an endogenous growth model to model the economic consequences of artificial intelligence (AI). This...

Global economic convergence and protection of the climate are both worthwhile goals. Yet, there is an inherent tension between them. Greenhouse gases are a waste product that is often emitted in the production process. Limiting such emissions therefore hampers the accumulation of income and...

We analyse Italy's growth pattern from 2001 to 2019 using the demand and growth regime categories proposed in the post-Keynesian tradition and recently adopted in the comparative political economy (CPE) literature. We argue that Italy followed an export-led recovery strategy after the Global...

As strategic management, every business always aims to increase business, acquire more market share and grow. Today’s business environment and hence challenges are more live and dynamic. To overcome this, the ‘once upon tested’ formulas and strategies may not work effectively. Hence the...

This paper presents a tractable model of endogenous production networks with fixed costs associated with the formation of links between firms. The model consists of a finite number of firm types producing differentiated products. Each firm is characterized by firm-specific parameters describing...

Analysis of the growth patterns in the global South in the 21st century suggests there is room for authoritarian states to search for new growth models. Authoritarian states, such as Turkey and Egypt, benefited from global financial circumstances in the early 21st century and opted for new...

The simultaneous rise of populism and the decay of liberal democracy in East-Central Europe is in striking contrast to the optimism prevalent in previous decades about the region's future. Without exception, each country in East-Central Europe embraced a dependent export-led growth model in the...

Previous research finds correlation between sentiment and future economic growth, but disagrees on the mechanism that explains this result. In this paper, we shed new light on this issue by exploiting cross-country variation in sentiment and market efficiency. We find that sentiment shocks in G7...

This paper studies China's four-fold increase in per capita GDP relative to the U.S. between 1995 and 2019. First, we argue that China's growth pattern is very similar to that of several other East Asia economies that initially grew very quickly. Second, we show that a minimalist...

The Artificial Intelligence (AI) evolution is a broad set of methods, algorithms, and technologies making software human-like intelligent that is encroaching our contemporary workplace. Thinking like humans but acting rational is the primary goal of AI innovations. The current market disruption...

Many economies are on the trajectory of alternative growth drivers other than conventional capital and labor. Access to credit facilities is a pertinent indicator of economic growth. In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs-8) agenda, the national goal for...

There is cross-country and time-series evidence that volatility is associated with slower growth. However, matching this evidence has proven to be a challenge for growth models without market failures, as they tend to predict the opposite for values of risk aversion greater than unity. This note...

The level of economic interstate competition has been growing significantly in recent decades. Countries are constantly trying to apply lower tax rates to attract large businesses to their territory. They are also trying to improve the efficiency of tax collection on their area of jurisdiction....

Projections of climate change damages based on climate-econometric estimates suggest that, without mitigation, global warming could reduce average global incomes by over 20% towards the end of the century (Burke et al., 2015). This figure significantly surpasses climate damages in Integrated...

This paper examines the relationship between financialisation and the future of work in the post-COVID era. It combines an analysis of changes in labour relations due to financialization with an analysis of the macroeconomic impact of financialisation. It will discuss these for the periods...

A core mechanism of unified growth theory is that accelerating technological progress induces mass education and, through interaction with child quantity‐quality substitution, a decline in fertility. Using unique new data for 21 OECD countries over the period 1750-2000, we test, for the first...

This paper estimates a demand-led model of macroeconomic growth and fluctuations in which the growth rate of the economy's supply side converges to the growth rate of demand. Convergence happens because labor supply and productivity growth respond to the degree of slack in the economy. Faster...

This study explores the relationship between inflation and income inequality in an open-economy Schumpeterian growth model with heterogeneous households, firm-level innovation, and cash-in-advance constraints on R&D investment. We find that income inequality may monotonically increase with...

Based on a review of 700+ peer-reviewed articles since 1990, identified using text mining methodology and supervised machine learning, we analyze how neo-Schumpeterian growth theorists relate to the entrepreneur-centered view of Schumpeter Mark I and the entrepreneurless framework of Schumpeter...

Empirical tests in the 1990s found little evidence of poor countries catching up with rich - unconditional convergence - since the 1960s, and divergence over longer periods. This stylized fact spurred several developments in growth theory, including AK models, poverty trap models, and the...

This paper explores how market power of agents on the capital market affects economic growth and output fluctuations in an overlapping-generations model with endogenous capital accumulation. Agents interact strategically by anticipating how their savings affect the return on savings in...

Ghana’s economy was identical to South Korea’s economy in the 1960s. Since the 1970s, however, Ghana’s economy has substantially lagged. To explain Ghana’s poor long-run economic growth, we build a neoclassical growth model to primarily examine the role of Ghana’s barriers to physical...

Trust among individuals in society may have various economic and social implications. Though, worldwide data on economic growth seldom deem trust as an ingredient in manipulating economic outcomes. Thus, in this model trust is included instigating from an individual, affecting community and...

We address two main structural changes occurring in developed countries: the rise of automation and population ageing. We use an R&D-based growth model in an OLG framework with endogenous education and fertility, and automation in the production process. Our model is able to combine the growth...

In this paper, we develop an endogenous growth model with deficit-financed productive government spending and examine the effect of increasing the income tax rate and cutting productive government spending by proposing a numerical example. The model can be reduced to a simple AK growth model by...

Public health events (PHEs) have emerged as significant threats to human life and health, as well as affecting economic growth. PHEs such as COVID-19 have led people to reflect on better regular prevention and control (RPC) for PHEs. Firstly, under the background of RPC for PHEs, a neoclassical...

The economic impact of Articial Intelligence (AI) is studied using a (semi) endogenous growth model with two novel features. First, the task approach from labor economics is reformulated and integrated into a growth model. Second, the standard representative household assumption is rejected, so...

Entrepreneurship in advanced economies is in decline. This comes as a surprise: many scholars have anticipated an upsurge in entrepreneurship, and expected an "entrepreneurial economy" to replace the post-WW2 "managed" economy. Instead of the "entrepreneurial economy" what has come into being...
