10、即实际增长率与有保证增长率出现偏差,则这种偏离不会自行矫正,反而会加重n如实际增长率低于有保证的增长率,在初期储蓄率相同情况下,实际的资本产出比大于有保证的资本产出比,将出现资本品过剩,投资受到抑制,储蓄率进一步下降,投资受到抑制,使实际增长率更低于均衡增长率n如实际增长率高于有保证的增长率,则实际的资本产出率低于有保证的资本产出率,资本品不足会刺激投资,导致实际增长率进一步增大,更加偏离有保证的增长率,使得资本品更加不足Stability of economic growth-Harrodian knife-edgeStability of economic growth-Harrodian
11、 knife-edgen黄金时代定理: actual growth rate = warranted growth rate = natural growth rate of the labor force. Thus n = s/v is the necessary condition for economic growth.

12、here is nothing that guarantees that s/v will be equal to n. thus the golden rule is very hard to achieve. nIt is a knife-edge growth rate (very unstable system, with no mechanism to bring the economy back to the equilibrium growth rate). nWhen the economy is growing fast, it continues to grow even

14、Neoclassical growth modelnIn the Harrod-Domar growth model, steady-state growth was unstable. In the popular term of the day, it was a knife-edge in the sense that any deviation from that path would result in a further move away from that path nRobert M. Solow (1956), Trevor Swan (1956) and James E.
15、 Meade (1961) contested this conclusion. They claimed that the capital-output ratio of the Harrod-Domar model should not be regarded as exogenous. nNeoclassical model : the capital-output ratio, v, was precisely the adjusting variable that would lead a system back to its steady-state growth path, i.
16、e. that v would move to bring s/v into equality with the natural rate of growth (n). The resulting model has become famously known as the Solow-Swan or simply the Neoclassical growth model. 新古典增长理论的三个基本命题n在长期稳定状态,产出的增长来自于有效的劳动力增长率(即劳动力的增长率加上劳动生产率的增长率),与储蓄率无关,更高的储蓄或投资比率被更高的资本产出比抵消。n人均收入水平取决于储蓄率或投资GDP
17、比率,与人口增长率呈反比。n资本劳动比和资本生产率的反向关系使得发展中国家在人均资本数量较少的情况下拥有更高的短期经济增长速率,各国的人均收入和生活水平应该趋同。索罗模型n1956年,开创性贡献对经济增长理论的一个贡献n1987年,索罗获得诺贝尔经济学奖n索罗模型的三个基本假定: 1、世界上每一个国家只生产和消费相同商品; 2、国家与国家之间不存在贸易关系; 3、技术是外生的:公司可利用的技术游离于公司之外,不受公司行为的影响。n索罗模型的三个技术假定 1、劳动力以外生的不变速率增长 2、产出是劳动和资本的函数,生产函数规模报酬不变,单个生产要素符合报酬递减规律。 3、所有储蓄都用于投资。基本
18、索罗图n两条曲线的差值:劳动力人均资本的变化量;n差值为正:人均资本增加,叫做“资本深化”n差值为零:人均资本不变,人口增加带来资本总量增加,叫做“资本拓宽”n稳定状态:人均资本量保持不变(越过稳态之后如何演变)比较静态分析:模型参数变化对模型的影响投资率增加,资本进一步深化,稳定状态下的劳动力人均资本进一步增加人口增长率增加,资本被稀释,稳定状态下的劳动力人均资本减少稳定状态的性质n人均资本存量随时间变化率为零转型动态分析从非稳态向稳态过渡过程中,经济增长速率的变化转型动态分析n人均资本量的变化率:当经济体低于其稳定状态越远,则增长率越大;经济体高于其稳态越远,经济体衰退越快。n稳定状态意味
