The 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...

Optimal Accumulation in an Endogenous Growth Setting with Human Capital This paper considers a three-overlapping-generations model of endogenous growth wherein human capital is the engine of growth. It first contrasts the laissez-faire and the optimal solutions. Three possible accumulation regimes are distinguished. Then it discusses a standard set of tax-transfer instruments that allow for dec...
متن کاملHuman Capital Accumulation and Endogenous Growth in a Dual Economy
This paper develops an endogenous growth model of a dual economy where human capital accumulation is the source of economic growth. The dualism between the rich individuals and the poor individuals exists in the mechanism of human capital accumulation. Rich individuals allocate labour time not only for their own production and knowledge accumulation but also to train the poor individuals. Stead...
متن کاملThe Effects of Annuities, Bequests, and Aging in an Overlapping Generations Model of Endogenous Growth
In this paper, we examine the effects of introducing actuarially fair annuity markets into an overlapping generations model of endogenous growth. We find the complete annuitization of agents’ wealth is not, in general, dynamically optimal; that the degree of annuitization that is dynamically optimal depends nonmonotonically on the expected length of retirement and on the pay-as-you-go social se...

This paper presents and analyzes an endogenous growth model with public capital and progressive taxation. Two versions are considered: The first versions assumes that the budget of the government is balanced at each point of time. The second allows for public debt but asserts that the ratio of the primary surplus to gross domestic income is a positive linear function of the debt income ratio wh...
