Property rights and efficiency in OLG models with endogenous fertility
Is there an economic rationale for pronatalist policies? We propose and analyze a particular market failure that leads to inefficiently low fertility in equilibrium.

We analyze an overlapping-generati...

متن کاملEfficient Endogenous Fluctuations in Two-Sector OLG Model
We consider a two-sector two-good two-periods overlapping generations model with inelastic labor, consumption in both period of life and homothetic CES preferences. There are two consumption goods, one pure (non-durable) consumption and one consumable (durable) capital good which can be either consumed or invested. Assuming gross substitutability and a capital intensive pure consumption good, w...

Life of the typical agent is divided between youth (firth period) and old age (second period). The latter period of life is, in turn, divided betweenwork time and retirement time in a p...
