Welfare Evaluation of Policies in an Overlapping Generations Growth Model
In the classical growth model, with overlapping generations and continuous time starting at −∞, generically there exist a unique equilibrium in the policy-neighbourhood of any balanced growth equibrium as shown in [4]. Policies are endowment perturbations. In this paper we show that, for any such equilibrium selection, welfare is differentiable, and that the derivative at the balanced growth eq...
متن کاملExistence of Competitive Equilibrium in a General Overlapping-Generations Model*
In the companion paper [2], Balasko and Shell establish existence of competitive equilibrium for a pure-distribution, overlapping-generations economy without money (see, especially, Propositions (3.10) and (3.11) in Section 3). That argument is remarkably simple, but depends critically on some strong hypotheses concerning individual tastes and endowments. In particular, it is assumed that, in a...
متن کاملThe Welfare Implications of Risk Adjustment in Imperfectly Competitive Markets
Risk adjustment is a common policy for mitigating the effects of adverse selection when government regulation limits insurer ability to rate consumers according to their expected risks. I study the social welfare implications of risk adjustment. I first show theoretically that risk adjustment may reduce social welfare because it can increase the expected risk of consumers who select into the in...
متن کاملAn 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
