Rationalizability and interactivity in evolutionary OLG models
We use the theory of rationalizable choices to study the survival and the extinction of types (or traits) in evolutionary OLG models. Two properties of evolutionary processes are introduced: rationalizability by a fitness ordering (i.e. only the most fit types survive) and interactivity (i.e. a withdrawal of types affects the survival of other types). Those properties are shown to be logically ...

متن کاملLecture 1: OLG Models
– Presence of retired people (ie too old to work) implies a strong motive for saving – Competitive equilibrium is not always Pareto-Optimal, due to presence of an initial old generation. ∗ in absence of time-0 trading, initial old agents must consume their endowment, therefore young people must also consume theirs. – Potential role for money or government transfers to restore efficiency – Model...
متن کاملStochastic OLG Models, Market Structure, and Optimality
For a general class of pure exchange OLG economies under uncertainty, we provide a complete characterization of the efficiency properties of competitive equilibria when markets are only sequentially complete and the criterion of efficiency is conditional Pareto optimality. We also consider a particular case in which markets fail to be even sequentially complete and provide a characterization wh...
متن کاملProperty 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. The friction is caused by the lack of ownership of children: if parents have no claim on their children’s income, the private benefit from producing a child can be smaller than the social benefit. We analyze an overlapping-generati...
