Capital-labor substitution and indeterminacy in continuous-time two-sector models

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Advances in Mathematical Economics ((MATHECON,volume 10))

Abstract

The aim of this paper is to discuss the role of the elasticity of capital-labor substitution on the local determinacy properties of the steady state in a two-sector economy with CES technologies and sector-specific externalities.

We are grateful to T. Seegmuller, K. Shimomura and an anonymous referee for useful comments and suggestions.
