abstract: 'We study a two-class model of growth and the distribution of income and
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
wealth at the intersection of contemporary work in classical political
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
economy and post-Keynesian economics. The key insight is that aggregate
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
demand is an externality for individual firms: this generates a
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
strategic complementarity in production and results in equilibrium
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
underutilization of the economy''s productive capacity, as well as
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
hysteresis in real output. Underutilization also affects the functional
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
distribution of income and the dis-tribution of wealth: both the wage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
share and the workers'' wealth share would be higher at full capacity.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Consequently, fiscal allocation policy that achieves full utilization
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
also attains a higher labor share and a more equitable distribution of
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
wealth; while demand shocks have permanent level effects. Extensions
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
look at hysteresis in the employment rate and growth. These findings are
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
useful as an organizing frame-work for thinking through the lackluster
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
economic record of the so-called Neoliberal era, the sluggish recovery
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
of most advanced economies following the Great Recession, and the
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
importance of fiscal policy in countering large shocks such as the
|
||
|
|
