Multisector growth models: theory and application

This book provides a reader with a practical foundation in general equilibrium theory, embeds the theory in a multi-sector dynamic framework, discusses howto practically link the theory to real economic data, and provides clear instructions on how to use existing software – in this case Mathematica – to construct model simulations for policy and other analysis. This book pulls it all together in a conceptually sound, yet practical, manner, and brings the theory to life. A unique feature is the integration of traditional static trade theory into modern neoclassical growth theory so the reader has the sense of building upon known constructs as opposed to learning a sequence of different models. The book provides several examples of real economic problems with policy interests and shows how to 'bring these problems to life' with theory and data. INDICE: Introduction.- The Preliminaries.- The Two Sector Ramsey Model.- The Three Sector Ramsey Model.- Extensions of the Three Sector Model.- The World Model.- Coding and Solving Growth Models.- Chapter VIII.- Chapter IX.
