The Harrod–Domar model dominated growth theory until Robert Solow [c] and Trevor Swan [d] independently developed neoclassical growth models in 1956. [55] Solow and Swan produced a more empirically appealing model with "balanced growth" based on the substitution of labor and capital in production. [59]
The new classical perspective takes root in three diagnostic sources of fluctuations in growth: the productivity wedge, the capital wedge, and the labor wedge. Through the neoclassical perspective and business cycle accounting one can look at the diagnostics and find the main ‘culprits’ for fluctuations in the real economy.
The Ramsey–Cass–Koopmans model, or Ramsey growth model, is a neoclassical model of economic growth based primarily on the work of Frank P. Ramsey in 1928, [1] with significant extensions by David Cass and Tjalling Koopmans in 1965.
Trevor Winchester Swan (14 January 1918 – 15 January 1989) was an Australian economist.He is best known for his work on the Solow–Swan growth model, published simultaneously by American economist Robert Solow, for his work on integrating internal and external balance as represented by the Swan Diagram, and for pioneering work in macroeconomic modeling, which predated that of Lawrence Klein ...
The neoclassical growth model provides an account of how the distribution of income between capital and labor is determined in competitive markets at the macroeconomic level over time with technological change and changes in the size of the capital stock and labor force. [10]
Part of the problem in this debate revolved around the high level of abstraction and idealization that occurs in economic model-building on topics such as capital and economic growth. The original neoclassical models of aggregate growth presented by Robert Solow and Trevor Swan were straightforward, with simple results and uncomplicated ...
The Harrod–Domar model was the precursor to the exogenous growth model. [4] Neoclassical economists claimed shortcomings in the Harrod–Domar model—in particular the instability of its solution [5] —and, by the late 1950s, started an academic dialogue that led to the development of the Solow–Swan model. [6] [7]
Neoclassical economics is an approach to economics in which the production, consumption, and valuation (pricing) of goods and services are observed as driven by the supply and demand model. [1]
