40134-01 - Vorlesung: Environment and Technical Change in Endogenous Growth Theory 3 KP

Semester Frühjahrsemester 2018
Angebotsmuster Jedes Frühjahrsem.
Dozierende Anton Bondarev (anton.bondarev@unibas.ch, BeurteilerIn)
Inhalt Content:
The course starts with neo-classical growth models with environmental and resource modules and continue through endogenous growth theory with environment of 1990-s up to recent research in this area. Every lecture is concentrated on one seminal paper which influenced the later developments with the idea to trace the chronological evolution of thought. The exposition concentrates on the role of technical change as the main driver of growth and partial remedy from the climate change.
Methodologically the course is based on dynamic optimization and optimal control techniques, which are widely used in recent growth theory research. Every model is qualitatively discussed, with stability properties of the equilibrium and comparison of socially optimal and market outcomes.
This course is theory-oriented one, but some empirical tests of the theory are also discussed. The main distinguishing feature is a broad perspective of the field of environmental endogenous growth and as such the precise mathematical solutions of models being discussed are not required, rather the basic understanding of underlying mechanics and principles of the subject. Namely, what form the interaction between environment, economy and technology may take in different theories, what are key igredients of such models, how the predictions differ across approaches.
Lernziele Learning goals:
This course provides an overview of the interaction between technical change and environment on the macroeconomic level and their influence on the economic growth and social welfare.
The main goal is to discuss different methods of describing these interactions and to provide students an opportunity to orient themselves in the current literature on the subject. Taking this course would provide students an opportunity to start their own research in this field.
