Equilibrium Welfare and Government Policy with Quasi-geometric Discounting
We consider a representative-agent equilibrium model where the consumer has quasi-geometric discounting and cannot commit to future actions. We restrict attention to a parametric class for preferences and technology and solve for time-consistent competitive equilibria globally and explicitly. We then characterize the welfare properties of competitive equilibria and compare them to that of a pla...
متن کاملNash Equilibrium and Welfare Optimality
If A is a set of social alternatives, a social choice rule (SCR) assigns a subset of A to each potential profile of individuals’ preferences over A, where the subset is interpreted as the set of ‘‘welfare optima’’. A game form (or ‘‘mechanism’’) implements the social choice rule if, for any potential profile of preferences, (i) any welfare optimum can arise as a Nash equilibrium of the game for...
متن کاملNetworks and Industrial Clusters
It is widely acknowledged that innovation is a key factor for competitiveness and that output growth and productivity depend on the development and diffusion of new technologies (OECD, 1997). However, the innovation process is not linear, but a complex and interactive one, involving business and non-business institutions. Kline and Rosenberg’s (1986) “chain-linked” interactive model is an examp...
متن کاملCompetitive Equilibrium and Societal Welfare 1. General Competitive Equilibrium
1. GENERAL COMPETITIVE EQUILIBRIUM 1.1. Economic system. An economic system is a collection of consumers, firms, and products and the environment in which they make decisions. We summarize this information as follows. 1.1.1. The economic environment. The actions taken by any agent depend on the opportunities presented to that agent. These opportunities depend on the economic environment of the ...
متن کاملWelfare Analysis: Bridging the Partial and General Equilibrium Divide for Policy Analysis
Advances in theoretical and computable general equilibrium modeling brought their conceptual foundations in line with standard microeconomic constructs. This reduced the theoretical and empirical gap between welfare measurements using a partial or a general equilibrium approach. However, the separation of the partial and general equilibrium literatures lingers in many applications which this ma...
