Um modelo setorial baseado na abordagem kaleckiana da distribuição setorial funcional da renda e na teoria schumpeteriana da concorrência

Abstract

ResumoEste artigo utiliza um referencial teórico schumpeteriano e kaleckiano para apresentar um modelo setorial capaz de captar os efeitos dinâmicos das inovações sobre a competitividade e a distribuição setorial funcional da renda. Adota-se a teoria distributiva de Kalecki, segundo a qual a distribuição funcional da renda é vinculada ao processo de formação de preços por mark-up. É desenvolvido um modelo de simulação para as interações entre firmas dentro de setores específicos a partir do método Agent-based modelling. A principal conclusão é que os resultados obtidos pelas simulações mostram que as inovações tecnológicas, ao influenciarem preço e mark-up, afetam diretamente a distribuição.Palavras-chave: Modelo setorial; Distribuição funcional da renda; Processo de concorrência; Kalecki; Schumpeter. Abstract A sectoral model based on the Kaleckian approach of sectoral functional income distribution and the Schumpeterian theory of competitionThis article uses the schumpeterian and kaleckian theories to present a sectoral model able to capture the dynamic effects of innovation on competitiveness and sectoral functional income distribution. Kalecki's distribution theory, according to which the functional income distribution is linked to markup pricing, is adopted. A simulation model for interaction between companies within specific sectors is developed from agent-based modelling. The main conclusion drawn from the results obtained with simulations shows that technological innovations directly affect income distribution by influencing both price and markup.

Essays on the pricing behavior of firms using an agent-based modeling approach

“…These characteristics reflect aspects of competition in markets with heterogeneous goods, where firms compete through the development of new goods and prices. For more details on these markets and their dynamics, refer to Metcalfe (1998) and Melo et al (2016).…”

“…By considering these factors, we have accounted for several key aspects of competition in markets with heterogeneous goods, where firms compete through product development and pricing strategies. The dynamics of such markets are comprehensively described in Metcalfe (1998) and formalized in Melo et al (2016).…”

Income inequality, economic activity, and economic policy in an agent-based macroeconomic model

“…The model's basic structure is inspired by key contributions in the macroeconomic AB literature, such as the KS model (Dosi et al, 2010(Dosi et al, , 2013(Dosi et al, , 2018, the micro-macro multisectoral model (Dweck, 2006, Melo et al, 2016, as well as the models developed by Caiani et al (2016Caiani et al ( , 2019a, Ciarli et al (2010Ciarli et al ( , 2019, Di Guilmi (2020), andOliveira et al (2020). Its main contribution is to incorporate three aspects relevant to the recent changes in the functional and personal income distribution, which are particularly related to the 32 Kaleckian approach.…”
