An overlapping-generations model with search
Search is embeded in an overlapping-generations model. Young people participate a centralized market and a decentralized market sequentially and olds only participates the centralized market. The demographic feature allows analytical tractability. In a series examples, positve inflation rates are Pareto optimal. JEL classification: E31
متن کاملAn Overlapping Generations Model of Electoral Competition
This paper presents a dynamic model of political competition between two "parties" with different policy preferences. A "party" is explicitly modelled as a sequence of overlapping generations of candidates, all of whom face finite decision horizons. In general, there is a conflict between the interests of the individual policymakers and those of the "party" , which includes subsequent generatio...
متن کاملSpecialization in a Dynamic Trade Model : An Overlapping Generations Case
We explore a small-open economy with overlapping generations to understand what is the determinant of trade pattern in the dynamic trade theory. In the representative agent model (Baxter (1992) ), even if there are two goods and two production factors, opening up to trade leads to perfect specialization. Using the overlapping generations model, we find that the heterogeneity of the economic age...
متن کاملThe dynamics of capital accumulation in an overlapping generations model
This paper studies capital accumulation in a slightly altered, explicit OLG model. The fundamental difference with the standard model lies in the initial conditions. If a portion of the initial allocation of the capital stock is not assigned to retirees, the framework allowing for a genuine accumulation of capital is provided. Dynamic aspects of the resulting model are analyzed, including dynam...
متن کاملActive and passive monetary policy in an overlapping generations model
In a standard overlapping generations model, active monetary policy reinforces mechanisms that lead to equilibrium indeterminacy and to countercyclical behavior of young-age consumption. The policy rule which minimizes inflation volatility can be active or passive, depending on the characteristics of shocks and the risk aversion of households. Inflation forecast errors are always greater under ...
