How are inflation and unemployment related in the long run? Are they negatively correlated, as in the so-called naive Phillips curve theories or uncorrelated, "as in the neo-liberals' view or are they…

In this paper we show that changes in the position of the UV-Curve do not unambiguously reflect changes in labour market adjustment ability. In fact, the UV-Curve is displaced not only when hiring eff…

The effects of the Swedish 1983-85 tax reform are analyzed with respect to the housing market. A microsimulation model is used which takes into account the household's tenure choice (owning vs. rentin…

Non-periodic fluctuations of production activities are shown to exist in a dynamic von Thunen model for specific conditions of cost and demand.

This paper shows how changing patterns of change and irregular or chaotic fluctuations arise in deterministic, competitive markets with production lags using (1) the standard cobweb model with a backw…

An adaptive economizing framework is proposed for analyzing labor market aspects of long-term industrial development using a dynamic, disaggregate economic model based upon principles of bounded ratio…

Our concern is with economizing behavior when preferences depend on experience. It is shown that such dependence, reflecting 'deep psychological structure', even when it is stable or habit forming in…

This paper discusses the nature of macro productivity change from the perspective of a Schumpeterian micro-to-macro (M-M) model. It emphasizes the dynamics of resource allocation through markets (firm…

This paper presents statistical evidence on (1) the importance of "soft" capital spending items like marketing and R&D investments, and (2) the dominant service content of production in the modern…

It is noted that modern economics cannot decide which economic system is the best way of organizing production. In particular, support is given to Nelson (1981) who claims that modern economics does n…

De stora balansproblem som i dag ställer krav på den ekonomiska politiken kräver en helhetssyn på den svenska ekonomin. Inom en rad studier under senare år har faran av att arbeta med partiella eller…

De liberala ekonomisk-politiska idéerna har under senare år upplevt en renässans. Den bärande tanken är att resursfördelningsproblemen löses bäst av marknadsmekanismerna vid ett minimum av offentliga…

The IUI micro-to-macro modeling project began almost ten years ago as a joint research venture between IBM Sweden and the University of Uppsala. At the outset, the major research activity took place…

The paper analyzes the effects on the demand for owner-occupied housing that are likely to result from the Swedish 1983-85 tax reform. This is done by means of a micro-simulation model which takes int…

The machine tool industry, even though it is tiny, is often considered strategic because of its role as supplier of technology to all metalworking industry. In recent years, the machine tool industry…

Most econometric multi-equation models estimated are assumed to be linear in both the variables and the parameters. One reason is that, in general, methods of linear algebra cannot be applied to nonli…

This paper investigates misspecified estimation and model selection criteria derived from the "Information Criterion (see Akaike (1973))" for qualitative choice models. Four estimators for the "Inform…

Considerable empirical work on investment behavior makes use of a capital cost variable to capture the effects of various corporate tax allowances. The assumption behind most of this work is that all…
