An 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 کاملAn 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 کاملWhy do monetary policies matter? An experimental study of saving and inflation in an overlapping generations model
We study experiments of an overlapping generations model where inflation is determined by the monetary policy and by the amount of average saving within each period. We use a new experimental setup that allows us to observe more details of the process of expectation forming and separate this process from the actual saving process. In contrast to experimental findings by Lim, Prescott, Sunder; M...
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...
