Description
This volume offers an up-to-date treatment of dynamic general equilibrium modeling. The book, written by some of the most experienced researchers in the field, contains a rich array of policy settings. The issues considered include trends in the policy use of dynamic general equilibrium models, environmental policy, trade liberalization and enlargement of the European Union, the impact of education and tax policy on human capital accumulation, tax policy and the labor market, and public finances in relation to population ageing.

Academics (especially applied economists specialized in general equilibrium modeling), civil servants and students of economics will find this a useful tool.
