Journal ArticleDOI
Indeterminacy in a Small Open Economy Ramsey Growth Model
TL;DR: It is shown that indeterminacy is considerably easier to obtain under a regime of perfect world capital markets than in the closed economy variant of the Benhabib and Farmer two sector optimal growth model with production externalities.
Journal ArticleDOI
Did sunspot forces cause the Great Depression
TL;DR: The authors apply a dynamic general equilibrium model to the period of the U.S. Great Depression and find that the model, driven only by these measured sunspot shocks, can explain well the entire Depression era.
Journal ArticleDOI
Animal spirits, technology shocks and the business cycle
TL;DR: Basu and Fernald as mentioned in this paper found evidence that returns to scale are far from evenly distributed across the U.S. economy and that scale economies are present mainly in the domain of durable goods production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fickle Consumers, Durable Goods, and Business Cycles
TL;DR: In this paper, a three sector dynamic general equilibrium model with the specific aim of evaluating the role of consumer durables in the generation and propagation of business cycles is developed, which displays indeterminacy at commonly considered realistic parameter restrictions and basically constant returns to scale.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracing externalities as sources of indeterminacy
Sharon G. Harrison,Mark Weder +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors identify the origin of scale economies as being from either labor or capital, and they find that in the one-sector model it is primarily the externalities associated with labor that generate the result.
