Institutional Changes, Effective Demand, and Inequality: A Structuralist Model of Secular Stagnation

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses the factors driving economic stagnation and inequality in the US over recent decades. We study a demand‐driven model with joint adjustment of the functional distribution and capacity utilization in the short run, and explore the dynamics of wealth accumulation and labor productivity growth in the long run.

How Are “Financial Balances” Financed? Wicksell, (Keynes) and the US Mainstream Don't Fit Today's Institutions; Kalecki, Triffin, and Minsky Got it Right

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The paper examines the financial balances of the US economy. Government is the main borrower and households and the foreign sector the main lenders. Business net lending is minimal.

Pseudo, or Not? Neo‐Goodwinian Growth Cycles With Financial Linkages

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A profit‐led Goodwin mechanism generates the observed counterclockwise activity–labor share cycle. Introducing a financial linkage can reproduce this pattern even when demand is not profit‐led. This paper extends neo‐Goodwinian theory by incorporating the valuation ratio into a four‐dimensional model.

Tax Progressivity, Public Debt, and Growth in a Neo‐Kaleckian Model

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We develop a neo‐Kaleckian growth‐and‐distribution model featuring two classes of workers and a progressive income tax. Two fiscal closures are considered: balanced budgets and deficit financing via public debt. We study the responses to shocks, including changes in functional income distribution, and assess how tax progressivity alters demand

Racial Inequality, Growth and Distribution

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A post‐Keynesian‐Kaleckian model along structuralist lines is developed to incorporate the issue of racial inequality into the analysis of growth and distribution. It draws on ideas presented in the literature about the relationship between class inequality between capitalists and workers, and racial inequality between White and Black workers,

Contractionary Effects of Devaluation and the Balance Sheet Effect in a Macroeconomic Model With Heterogeneous Firms

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We propose a demand‐led heterogeneous firm macroeconomic model to study the impact of an exchange rate devaluation on output and financial stability. We simulate the model and find that, in the presence of foreign debt, a devaluation can have contractionary effects.

Revising Structuralism in Times of Crisis: Lance Taylor and the Neo‐Structuralist Synthesis in the 1980s

open access: yesMetroeconomica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article places the work of Lance Taylor in the broader context of efforts in the 1980s to renew the structuralist tradition of development economics, into what was then newly coined as neo‐structuralism. These efforts centred around three groups: CEPAL, Lance Taylor and his team at MIT, and a group of economists based at the Institute of ...
