An approach to equilibrium selection

Article Abstract:

A research study considers equilibrium selection in symmetric and asymmetric games having a pair of strict Nash equilibria. The static games played by a series of unknown agents are embedded in a dynamic random matching framework. The players differ from those in the evolutionary process in they being rational and able to optimize discounted payoffs. However, the players can only make short-run commitments when selecting actions. A strict Nash equilibrium becomes uniquely absorbing if risk-dominance is achieved with the presence of minimal friction.

Agricultural productivity, comparative advantage, and economic growth

Article Abstract:

An analysis of the impact of agricultural productivity on economic development is presented. The analysis applies a two-sector model of endogenous growth which assumes non-homothetic preferences and less than unitary income elasticity while limiting manufacturing growth to learning-by-doing constraints. It is shown that a positive link may be established between productivity and growth in a closed economy case.
