{"product_id":"income-distribution-in-macroeconomic-models-giuseppe-bertola-9780691121710","title":"Income Distribution in Macroeconomic Models","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book looks at the distribution of income and wealth and the effects that this has on the macroeconomy, and vice versa. Is a more equal distribution of income beneficial or harmful for macroeconomic growth, and how does the distribution of wealth evolve in a market economy? Taking stock of results and methods developed in the context of the 1990s revival of growth theory, the authors focus on capital accumulation and long-run growth. They show how rigorous, optimization-based technical tools can be applied, beyond the representative-agent framework of analysis, to account for realistic market imperfections and for political-economic interactions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The treatment is thorough, yet accessible to students and nonspecialist economists, and it offers specialist readers a wide-ranging and innovative treatment of an increasingly important research field. The book follows a single analytical thread through a series of different growth models, allowing readers to appreciate their structure and crucial assumptions. This is particularly useful at a time when the literature on income distribution and growth has developed quickly and in several different directions, becoming difficult to overview.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Giuseppe Bertola,Reto Foellmi,Josef Zweimüller\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691121710\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691121710\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/25\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 456\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.76lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.46h x 6.54w x 1.27d","brand":"Giuseppe Bertola","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48153083478271,"sku":"9780691121710","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_575299c5-2198-4f49-8c9c-e97f21cc5083.jpg?v=1770781171","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/income-distribution-in-macroeconomic-models-giuseppe-bertola-9780691121710","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
