Skrócony opis: |
Growth empirics. Exogenous growth models. First generation endogenous growth models. R&D-based models. Scale effects. Technology diffusion. Appropriate technology. Poverty traps. Topics in development economics. |
|
Pełny opis: |
The aim of his course is to familiarize students with the most important models of economic growth, their implications and limitations, as well as the most recent findings of the empirical literature. The course starts with a description of the basic patterns related to economic growth. The presentation of the main theories of economic growth starts off with neoclassical models, treating technological change as exogenous. We next move to various generations of endogenous growth models, including R&D-based growth models and technology diffusion models. The overview of theoretical models ends with a presentation of selected topics in development economics. The course is supplemented with a discussion on the fundamental causes of economic performance. The implications of the presented theories are confronted with the main findings of the empirical literature. |
