Deploying: Solow Growth Model: Increase in s¶
The Solow Growth Model is the simplest possible model capable of capturing anything about economic growth that I am aware of. It has:
- a capital stock K, determined over time by the savings-investment share s, output Y, and a depreciation rate δ.
- a labor force L, determined over time by its growth rate n.
- an efficiency-of-labor E, determined over time by its growth rate g.
- a production function determining output Y, depending on a parameter α capturing the relative capital orientation of growth as well as on K, L, and E.
- That's it!
What can we then tell about economic growth from this very simple framework?
