No full textMedical Care within an OLG Economy with Realistic Demography
No full textWe study the role of health care within a continuous time economy of overlapping generations subject to endogenous mortality. The economy consists of two sectors: final goods production and a health care sector, selling medical services to individuals. Individuals demand health care with a view to lowering mortality over their life-cycle. We derive the age-specific individual demand for health care based on the value of life as well as the resulting aggregate demand for health care across the population. We then characterize the general equilibrium allocation of this economy, providing both an analytical and a numerical representation. We study the allocational impact of a medical innovation both in the presence and absence of anticipation; and a temporary baby boom. We place particular emphasis on disentangling general equilibrium from partial equilibrium impacts and identifying the relevant transmission channels
The Carbon Cost of an Educated Future: A Consumer Lifestyle Approach
No full textDemographic and economic growth will account for most of the anticipated growth ingreenhouse gas (GHG) emissions in the next century. Education is associated withdevelopment, and the world population in the near future is likely to be significantly bettereducated than today. Previous studies of household energy demand and associatedemissions have not directly considered the consequences of a more educated population. Inthis study, I estimate the energy intensity of consumption dollars and the total impact ofhouseholds according to their demographic characteristics, with particular attention todifferences in spending habits by education and the environmental consequences. I findthat education results in fewer emissions per household, holding other householdcharacteristics constant. Each year of education is associated with an average effect inCO2-equivalent (CO2e) emission of -466kg/yr. After controlling for householdcharacteristics, the effect of a year of education is -163.1kg per year. Educated householdsspend less on home energy and transportation by car, two of the most important sources ofhousehold level atmospheric GHG production. They spend relatively more on investmentgoods, public transport, and other activities which have a low environmental footprint

No full textIn this paper I investigate the legal and institutional reforms or innovationsthat were introduced in the period 307-301 BC, a period recorded as the restorationof democracy, the rationale behind them and the tensions that developed whenroyals were involved in the day-to-day administration of public affairs in anindependent, autonomous polis
