Course Objectives: | The aim of this course is to introduce basic models of economic growth theory. This also requires sizeable information on economic theory, differential equations, and optimal control theory. Hence, the course also equips students with this information. Another aim of this course is to make an introduction for how to make theoretical research and scientific publication. |
The students who have succeeded in this course; The students who succeeded in this course; - will be able to explain the theories, concepts, and the role of Solovian economic growth framework. - will be able to explain the theories, concepts, and the role of Ramsey economic growth framework. - will be able to interpret the relationship between several macroeconomic variables in the context of economic growth. - will be able to discuss theoretical issues in economic theory. - will be able to analyze several policy implications of growth theory. - will be able to write a scientific paper in economic growth theory. |
The course begins by Solow approach. That approach assumes that the savingconsumption tradeoff is given to the modeleconomy. Under this assumption, the framework develops several concepts of dynamic modeling such as transitional dynamics, steady state, golden rule of saving, violations of neoclassical assumptions, and so on. Next, the consumption saving trade off is endogenized under the Ramsey framework. The course teaches some other concepts of dynamic macro economics such as subjective rate of discount, intertemporal elasticity of substitution, saddle path stability, and so on. In summary, a short list of some concepts and topics covered is Neoclassical assumptions, Solow framework,Transitional dynamics,Steady state cases that violate neoclassical assumptions,Ramsey framework,Intertemporal substitution,saving consumption tradeoff. |
