The role of unions in an endogenous growth model with human capital

Abstract

In this paper we study the relationship between unions and growth in a two-sector overlapping generations model with altruism and human capital. This relationship depends on the interaction between the technology in the sector that produces human capital, the degree of unionization of the economy and the operativeness of the bequest motive.¤ We are grateful to Jordi Caballé, Javier Caballero, Xavier Raurich and Carles Solà.

Novel weak decays in doubly strange systems

“…Since there are now two Λ particles contributing to the ΛN → NN decay, one would expect the result to be roughly twice the rate in 5 Λ He, which for this potential turns out to be 0.32Γ Λ , as shown in Ref. [4]. We obtain instead a significantly larger value of Γ NN = 0.96Γ Λ .…”

“…This aspect is discussed recently in Ref. [4], which updates the meson-exchange model of Ref. [3] and finds agreements with results obtained by groups combining the π and K exchange with either a direct quark mechanism [5] or 2π exchange [21].…”

“…Since the large momentum transfer in the reaction (typically 400 MeV/c) leads to a mechanism where short-range effects must be included, they have been modelled either through the exchange of the vector meson octet [2][3][4] (ρ,ω and K * ) or quark exchange [5]. The vector baryon-baryon-meson vertices are constrained by much weaker SU (6) considerations.…”

Endogenous Growth, Price Stability and Market Disequilibria

“…a one-sector growth model where the production of final goods is characterized by a technology exhibiting constant marginal returns), as in Rebelo (1991), but the two-sector growth model with human capital, extensively discussed in the literature (e.g. Lucas, 1988;Caballé and Santos, 1993;Mulligan and Sala-i-Martin, 1993;Bond et al, 1996;Ladrón-de-Guevara et al, 1997;Ramos-Parreno and Sanchez-Losada, 2002;Gómez, 2003Gómez, , 2004, is also developed.…”
