We study the role of government's allocation of tax revenues between two outlays: public
investment in education (a transfer to the young generation) and social security benefits to
the older generation. In an overlapping generations economy with pay-as-you-go social ...

Conventional wisdom suggests that aging of population will increase political pressure to tilt
the composition of social spending in favor of the elderly, while potentially sacrificing other
publicly provided goods such as education. This view seems to be supported by recent ...

We study how the allocation of government expenditures between two major outlays—
education and pay-as-you-go social security—affects human capital distribution in an
economy with heterogeneous agents. We consider an overlapping generations economy ...

The paper addresses the two-fold rise in teacher–student ratio in the American K-12 school
system in the post-World War II period accompanied by the evidence of a decline in the
relative quality of teachers. We develop a dynamic general equilibrium framework for ...

Abstract: We consider a small open economy in which the level of public education funding
is determined by popular vote. We show that growth can be enhanced by the introduction of
pay-as-you-go pensions even if the growth rate of aggregate wages falls short of the ...

The possibility of sustained long-run growth is typically associated with the presence of
some endogenousengine of growth'. It may allow the economy to grow without bound
despite the use of some non-reproducible resources. Such situations can lead to dynamic ...

We study how the relationship between economic growth and inequality depends upon the
levels of funding of two of the largest government programs, public education and social
security. We do this in the context of an overlapping generations economy with ...

This paper models the career decisions of agents, heterogeneous in their ability, facing the
possibility of future drastic changes (eg reforms) affecting the demand for different
professions. Supposing that the uncertainty arises after educational choices have been ...

Abstract A legacy of most transition economies is the combination of high achievements in
all measures of educational attainment with laggard levels of per capita GDP. Therefore
growth prospects of transition economies significantly depend on their ability to capitalize ...

Former Soviet-type economies were characterized by extensive state subsidies to workers
that kept wages above the marginal product of labor. Privatization limits the state's ability to
redistribute income. If worker earnings are to be above the politically motivated ...

2. Abstract The intertemporal decentralization literature scrutinizes the ability of markets to
achieve dynamically optimal allocation of resources. Put differently, it examines the
possibility of designing a mechanism enabling short-lived agents to make independent ...

This paper argues that adverse distributional effects may prevent speedy privatization in
former command economies. An imbalanced structure of the work force, combined with a
politically motivated subsistence consumption constraint, may necessitate gradual ...

Rolling planning is a procedure of continual revision of dynamic programs, such that the
horizon N lying ahead at the time of each revision remains constant. Since, in a rolling plan,
the decisions about current resource allocation are implemented without being verified by ...

This paper demonstrates that the analysis of fiscal sustainability of social security must
include the education funding dimension of public policy, which affects the productivity of
future workers. This fact is true under both social security regimes: pay-as-you-go (PAYG) ...

Abstract A generalized von Neumann-Leontief model is considered where both the effects of
accumulation (forward lags) and compensation of residual damages (backward lags) are
distributed over time. The presence of backward lags implies that any activity generates a ...

Summary The paper considers a model of an economy with after-effects: any production
activity generates some subsequent expenses, like compensation of residual damages.
Internalizing the after-effects in production costs at the time they are generated proves to ...

Abstract Demographic trends in most developed economies are characterized by rising
longevity and decreasing birthrates. These trends endanger the sustainability of the current
public pension systems. Therefore social security reform proposals are on the agenda in ...

Abstract: We consider a small open economy in which people vote on the size of public
education. It is shown that growth and welfare can be enhanced by the introduction of pay-
as-you-go pensions even if the growth rate of aggregate wages falls short of the interest ...

The paper considers the following mechanism of intertemporal decisions in a linear
multisector production model: at each time ta program for two time periods t, t+ 1 is worked
out but is followed only during the first period t, after which the rest of the program is ...
