Economics and Ageing
This upper level textbook provides a coherent introduction to the economic implications of individual and population ageing. Placing economic considerations into a wider social sciences context, this is ideal reading not only for advanced undergraduate and masters students in health economics and economics of ageing, but policy makers, professionals and practitioners in gerontology, sociology, health-related sciences, and social care. This volume introduces topics in labour economics, including the economic implications of ageing workforces. It covers pension economics and pension systems with their macroeconomic and distributive effects, and the question of risk. Finally, it describes macroeconomic consequences of ageing populations on aggregate saving, inflation, international trade, and financial markets.
Testing the Long Run Effect of Investment on Output in the Presence of Cointegration
A major empirical interest is whether a permanent change in economic fundamentals produces a growth effect. However, a direct time series analysis of this hypothesis may not always be feasible due to a lack of such events. This paper explains why a test regarding the long run effect of a temporary change in investment share may, under appropriate conditions, provide indirectly the answer regarding the effect of a (possibly hypothetical) permanent change in investment share. Applying the proposed test to the data of G7 countries, it is found that a disturbance in investment share produces only a temporary effect for a majority of countries. Methodologically, this paper contributes to structural VAR analysis by deriving a empirically verifiable condition for a bivariate cointegrated system under which the recursive ordering and long run identifying restrictions deliver statistically similiar results.

Macroeconomic Theory
This graduate textbook is a "primer" in macroeconomics. It starts with essential undergraduate macroeconomics and develops in a simple and rigorous manner the central topics of modern macroeconomic theory including rational expectations, growth, business cycles, money, unemployment, government policy, and the macroeconomics of nonclearing markets. The emphasis throughout the book is on both foundations and presenting the simplest model for each topic that will deliver the relevant answers. The first two chapters recall the main workhorses of undergraduate macroeconomics: the Solow-Swan growth model, the Keynesian IS-LM model, and the Phillips curve. The next chapters present four fundamental...
