Applied General Equilibrium: An Introduction de Manuel Alejandro Cardenete

Applied General Equilibrium: An Introduction: Springer Texts in Business and Economics

Autor Manuel Alejandro Cardenete, Ana-Isabel Guerra, Ferran Sancho

en Limba Engleză Hardback – 14 aug 2017

This advanced textbook provides a straightforward but comprehensive introduction to applied general equilibrium modeling. General equilibrium is the backbone of modern economic analysis, which is why generation after generation of economics students have been introduced to it. As an analytical tool, general equilibrium can provide one of the most complete views of a given economy, as it incorporates all economic agents (households, firms, government and the foreign sector) in an integrated way that explicitly reveals the interplay of economic forces—supply and demand—and the balancing role of prices.
Applied general equilibrium goes one step further in modeling, since it entails the integration of microeconomic theory, data handling and computing. This integration is essential for successful empirical modeling, but also involves various abilities that are not found in standard books. This book fills the gap, providing advanced students with the required tools,

from the construction of consistent and applicable general equilibrium models to the interpretation of the results that ensue from the adoption of policies. This second edition expands the range of topics covered, including: indispensable general equilibrium theory, step-by-step model design, incremental model extensions, a wealth of sample computer code, procedures for constructing economic databases, database adjustments and database updating algorithms, numerical model calibration, policy strategies and their trade-offs and welfare effects, and a discussion of empirical policy examples.

Caracteristici

Provides the minimal analytical background for successful model implementation Includes step-by-step procedures for building empirically oriented large-scale economic models Facilitates quick learning by isolating problems and providing solutions in an incremental manner Integrates basic modeling tips with data handling to provide an empirical background to economic models Includes software code in a transparent text format to accompany the chapters (required GAMS software is available free of charge)

Recenzii

From the reviews:
“The authors’ aim is to provide readers with the tools needed to construct their own models. I applaud them for their success. After reading the book, students should be able to build an AGE model because they will have gained an understanding of its internal logic. … this is a very useful book that should be on the shelf of any student of AGE modeling. … Even the most complicated issues are tackled in an easy-to-understand way, which makes the book quite accessible.” (María Teresa Álvarez-Martínez, The Review of Regional Studies, Vol. 42 (1), 2012)
