This text is an introduction to the newer features of growth theory that are particularly useful in examining the issues of economic development. Growth theory provides a rich and versatile analytical framework through which fundamental questions about economic development can be examined. Structural transformation, in which developing countries transition from traditional production in largely rural areas to modern production in largely urban areas, is an important causal force in creating early economic growth, and as such, is made central in this approach. Towards this end, the authors augment the Solow model to include endogenous theories of saving, fertility, human capital, institutional arrangements, and policy formation, creating a single two-sector model of structural transformation. Based on applied research and practical experiences in macroeconomic development, the model in this book presents a more rigorous, quantifiable, and explicitly dynamic dual economy approach todevelopment. Common microeconomic foundations and notation are used throughout, with each chapter building on the previous material in a continuous flow. Revised and updated to include more exercises for guided self study, as well as a technical appendix covering required mathematical topics beyond calculus, the second edition is appropriate for both upper undergraduate and graduate students studying development economics and macroeconomics.

This textbook examines corruption through a macroeconomic lens, exploring the relationship between corruption, fiscal policy, and political economy. It merges macroeconomic growth models with elements of political economic theory to address important applied topics such as income inequality within and across countries, growth slowdowns, and fiscal crises. Revised and updated to include new research findings and recent policy discussions, the second edition contains 15 new sections and 2 new chapters on topics such as public defaults, the wage elasticity of work and the interest elasticity of saving, and the economic and fiscal impact of the 2020 pandemic. Most of the basic ideas are illustrated using a two-period model of government investment that captures the future cost of policies that favor the present. The more subtle and advanced issues are illustrated and, in some cases, quantified, using the overlapping-generations model of economic growth. The models used to illustrate the mechanisms of economic growth are extended to incorporate politics and the behavior of public official. The text concludes with a thorough discussion of policy reforms designed to address the issues discussed in earlier chapters. Intended for students familiar with intermediate-level economics, the second edition contains a technical appendix, expanded end-of-chapter questions and problems, and a complete solutions manual. The second edition also offers updated resources for instructors, including sample syllabi and over 550 multiple choice questions. Offering a unified explanation for the causes and consequences of government failure, fiscal crisis, and needed policy reforms, this text is appropriate for advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate courses in macroeconomics, political economy, and public policy.

Dieses Lehrbuch untersucht Korruption aus einer makroökonomischen Perspektive und erforscht die Beziehung zwischen Korruption, Fiskalpolitik und politischer Ökonomie. Es kombiniert makroökonomische Wachstumsmodelle mit Elementen der politischen ökonomischen Theorie, um wichtige angewandte Themen wie Einkommensungleichheit innerhalb und zwischen Ländern, Wachstumsrückgänge und fiskalische Krisen zu behandeln. Überarbeitet und aktualisiert, um neue Forschungsergebnisse und aktuelle politische Diskussionen einzubeziehen, enthält die zweite Auflage 15 neue Abschnitte und 2 neue Kapitel zu Themen wie öffentliche Zahlungsausfälle, die Lohnelastizität der Arbeit und die Zinssatzelastizität des Sparens sowie die wirtschaftlichen und fiskalischen Auswirkungen der Pandemie 2020.Die meisten grundlegenden Ideen werden mithilfe eines Zwei-Perioden-Modells der Regierungsinvestitionen veranschaulicht, das die zukünftigen Kosten von Politiken erfasst, die die Gegenwart begünstigen. Die subtileren und fortgeschritteneren Themen werden veranschaulicht und in einigen Fällen quantifiziert, indem das Überlappende-Generationen-Modell des wirtschaftlichen Wachstums verwendet wird. Die Modelle, die zur Veranschaulichung der Mechanismen des wirtschaftlichen Wachstums verwendet werden, werden erweitert, um die Politik und das Verhalten öffentlicher Beamter zu integrieren. Der Text schließt mit einer gründlichen Diskussion über Politikreformen, die darauf abzielen, die in früheren Kapiteln erörterten Probleme anzugehen.Für Studierende, die mit intermediären Wirtschaftswissenschaften vertraut sind, enthält die zweite Auflage einen technischen Anhang, erweiterte Fragen und Probleme am Ende der Kapitel sowie ein vollständiges Lösungsmanual. Die zweite Auflage bietet auch aktualisierte Ressourcen für Lehrende, einschließlich Musterlehrplänen und über 550 Multiple-Choice-Fragen. Dieses Lehrbuch bietet eine einheitliche Erklärung für die Ursachen und Folgen von Regierungsversagen, fiskalen Krisen und notwendigen Politikreformen und ist für fortgeschrittene Bachelor- und Anfangs-Masterkurse in Makroökonomie, politischer Ökonomie und Öffentlicher Politik geeignet.
