Debt Sustainability Assessment: The IMF Approach and Alternatives

TL;DR: In this paper, it is recognized that, because the future is unknown, any debt sustainability assessment is only valid within the bounds of the underlying guesses, and there is no support for the view that added complexity allows for more precise assessments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Increasing resilience and reducing vulnerability in sub- Saharan African agriculture: Strategies for risk coping and management

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a descriptive and distinctive framework on the concepts of vulnerability, resilience, adaptive capacity and risks in agriculture, and identify four broad domains of opportunities available to farm agents to use risk coping and management strategies to increase their resilience and reduce their vulnerability to shocks.
Book ChapterDOI

Optimal population growth as an endogenous discounting problem: The Ramsey case

TL;DR: In this article, the authors revisited the optimal population size problem in a continuous time Ramsey setting with costly child rearing and both intergenerational and intertemporal altruism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regulating the Environmental Consequences of Preferences for Social Status within an Evolutionary Framework

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examine the regulator's choices between informative advertisement and consumption taxation and find that the regulator could decrease, or even eliminate, the share of status seekers in the population in an arbitrary and optimal control context.
Journal ArticleDOI

A study on forecasting paths of genuine savings and wealth without and with carbon dioxide constraints: development of shadow price functions

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a method for forecasting the future paths of genuine savings (GS) with and without carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions constraints, which can be endogenously determined for variables and constraints in a model.
