Book excerpt: This edited collection explores the links between human capital (both in the form of health and in the form of education), demographic change, and economic growth. Using empirical as well as theoretical perspectives, the authors investigate several important issues in the context of human capital, namely population ageing, inequality, public policy, and long-term economic development. Ultimately, they demonstrate that the accumulation of human capital is of crucial importance to long-run economic growth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This lecture examines the effects of tax policy and social security retirement benefits on capital accumulation and economic welfare. The paper begins by examining how capital income taxes reduce the real return to savers and then discusses the welfare loss of capital income taxation relative to the alternatives of taxing consumption and labor income. The second part deals with social security retirement benefits. In 1994, older Americans will receive cash and medical benefits that cost the government $530 billion or $16,000 per person over 65. A final section discusses the implications of international capital flows for this analysis. As capital flows become more important, the response of government policy may be to compete for foreign capital inflows and to tax domestic savers more heavily; leading to a smaller total volume of capital. The sharp decline in the net national saving rate-from over 8% of GDP in the U.S. in the 1970s to only 4.5% in the 1980s & from over 14% of GDP in Europe in the 1970s to 9.9% in the 1980s -- may not only create lower real incomes and slower growth but may weaken capitalism itself. In the US a decade of slow growth has increased protectionist tendencies in international trade and led to a new interest in industrial policies that expand the role of the government in guiding the direction of technology of private investment. Government policies that discourage saving might make the Schumpeterian vision of a shift from private capitalism to government-dominated economy more likely.

Download or read book Taxes and Capital Formation written by Martin Feldstein and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2007-12-01 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Economists have long recognized the importance of capital accumulation for productivity and economic growth. The National Bureau of Economic Research is currently engaged in a study of the relationship between such accumulation and taxation policies, with particular focus on saving, risk-taking, and corporate investment in the United States and abroad. The papers presented in Taxes and Capital Formation are accessible, nontechnical summaries of fourteen individual research projects within that study. Complete technical reports on this research are published in a separate volume, The Effects of Taxation on Capital Accumulation, also edited by Martin Feldstein. By addressing some of the most critical policy issues of the day with a minimum of economic jargon, Taxes and Capital Formation makes the results of Bureau research available to a wide audience of policy officials and staff as well as to members of the business community. The volume should also prove useful for courses in public policy, business, and law. In keeping with Bureau tradition, the papers do not contain policy recommendations; instead, they promote a better understanding of how the economy works and the effects of specific policies on particular aspects of the economy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this timely book Gregory Tassey analyzes the assets and government policies that affect and enhance the technology-based economy. Tassey makes the case for a comprehensive technology-based economic growth strategy needed to respond to multi-asset growth strategies being implemented in Europe and Asia. This insightful book examines the need for a new and broader set of economic policies to end four decades of declining GDP growth, persistent trade deficits, stagnant incomes, and socially disruptive income inequality in the US. Tassey proposes a technology element model which characterizes and assesses the four major asset categories that must comprise emerging technology-based growth policies: investment in research and development, capital formation, skilled labor, and complex technical infrastructures. He emphasizes a range of existing and proposed growth policies that currently or potentially support the rapidly expanding technology-based economy, exploring their management and implications for regional and national government growth policies. These constructs are then integrated into crucial recommendations for supporting emerging policy trends. Growth Policies for the High-Tech Economy is a key read for students, government policy analysts and scholars of economics, industrial organization, innovation policy and finance. Most important, it is also a vital resource for government analysts and industry managers lobbying for innovative policy changes.
