Capital utilization, economic growth and convergence

Optimal decisions by economic agents regarding the utilization of capital lead to empirically plausible speeds of convergence in one-sector models of economic growth. The relationship between depreciation and capital utilization plays a crucial role in slowing down convergence to the steady state. Cross-country differences in the extent to which the capital utilization decision is internalized along the transition path may lead to differences in convergence rates, even for countries with similar initial and terminal conditions. Finally, by assuming a constant depreciation rate and full capital utilization, standard growth models may be overstating the magnitude of the steady-state equilibrium.     

Optimal city size,land tenure and the economic theory of clubs

In this paper, a connection is made between urban population size in the presence of increasing returns to scale, and the economic theory of clubs. It is shown that under certain conditions, the optimal size of the population is finite and that collective action are transferable concepts from the theory of clubs. The model is also solved in a closed format, i.e., including rent payments as part of total income, under two redistribution schemes. It is shown that the optimal size of the population is independent of the mode of ownership of the urban residential land, when the transportation cost function is linear.     

Testing neoclassical convergence in regional incomes and earnings

The time-series properties of per capita income and per capita earnings in the regions of the United States are tested for consistency with the neoclassical growth model's prediction of convergence. We find evidence for per capita income convergence for U.S. regions during the 1929–1990 period after allowing for a trend break in 1946. These findings support the neoclassical model's prediction of convergence. The evidence for per capita earnings convergence is, however, less conclusive. Shocks to per capita earnings are found to be more persistent than shocks to per capita income. This implies that the regional distribution of transfer payments tends to smooth the effects of deviation on relative regional per capita earnings and reinforce trends in per capita income convergence.

Growth, cycles and convergence in US regional time series

This article reports the results of fitting unobserved components (structural) time series models to data on real income per capita in eight regions of the United States. The aim is to establish stylised facts about cycles and convergence. It appears that while the cycles are highly correlated, the two richest regions have been diverging from the others in recent years. A new model is developed in order to characterise the converging behaviour of the six poorest regions. The model combines convergence components with a common trend and cycles. These convergence components are formulated as a second-order error correction mechanism which allows temporary divergence while imposing eventual convergence. After fitting the model, the implications for forecasting are examined. Finally, the use of unit root tests for testing convergence is critically assessed in the light of the stylised facts obtained from the fitted models.     

Endogenous fertility, multiple growth paths, and economic convergence

"This paper extends the Cass-Koopmans optimal growth model to allow for endogenous fertility choice. It is shown that if agents choose their fertility rate, then the net rate of return on capital (marginal product of capital minus the population growth rate) may not be monotonically decreasing in capital. In this case, multiple steady states and growth paths may emerge, which can explain the persistent differentials in income between poor and rich countries, as well as the existence of development miracles and disasters. The paper provides also empirical evidence which supports the existence of multiple convergence groups and is consistent with the theoretical model."     

发展品牌经济,提升民族地区经济竞争力

改革开放后,我国涌现出了大量全国乃至世界知名品牌.许多知名品牌在同一地区出现,并带动地区经济发展.人们在总结这些地区成功经验时,发现成功的背后其实隐藏着更深层次的东西,这就是政府职能部门和整个社会的品牌意识、品牌文化以及适合品牌生存的制度环境等.人们将这种所谓以品牌企业或品牌产品为龙头,带动地方经济整体发展的经济称为品牌经济.品牌经济是区域经济发展的源动力.发展品牌经济是适应知识社会、信息社会的需要,是应对世界经济一体化挑战,推动民族地区经济结构升级,提升综合竞争力,实现可持续发展的重要举措.

L‐moments skewness and kurtosis as measures of regional convergence and cohesion

The paper deals with the statistical modeling of convergence and cohesion over time with the use of kurtosis, skewness and L‐moments. Changes in the shape of the distribution related to the spatial allocation of socio‐economic phenomena are considered as an evidence of global shift, divergence or convergence. Cross‐sectional time‐series statistical modeling of variables of interest is to overpass the minors of econometric theoretical models of convergence and cohesion determinants. L‐moments perform much more stable and interpretable than classical measures. Empirical evidence of panel data proves that one pure pattern (global shift, polarization or cohesion) rarely exists and joint analysis is required.

The dynamics of economic convergence: The role of alternative investment decisions

In this paper we evaluate how various investment decisions explain the macroeconomic dynamics of European transition countries. We introduce quality investment decisions into a model with other two standard investment margins assumed in the advanced trade literature, i.e., investment in new varieties and in export eligibility. We show that the standard investment margins are not sufficient to simultaneously match the dynamics in the macroeconomic variables, especially the export performance and the real exchange rate. In contrast, the extended model with quality investment provides reconciliation.     

促进经济责任审计再上新水平

认清形势 提高认识现在看来有些地方的领导对经济责任审计仍然存在认识不到位、对经济责任审计重视不够的问题,突出表现在两个方面:一是有的地方没有安排对县级以上领导干部的经济责任审计,主要是怕审出问题,伤了和气,不好收场;二是有的领导干部不愿接受经济责任审计,怕揭了“疮疤”,丢了“面子”,没了“威信”等等。这两种认识都是错误的。我们不能因为怕出问题,就躲审计;更不能因为怕丢“面子”,就讳疾忌医,不愿接受审计。审计的目的,是为了规范经济秩序,防止和减少违纪违规问题的发生。开展对领导干部的经济责任审计,是实践江泽
