Download or read book The Cambridge Economic History of Australia written by Simon Ville and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2014-10-08 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australia's economic history is the story of the transformation of an indigenous economy and a small convict settlement into a nation of nearly 23 million people with advanced economic, social and political structures. It is a history of vast lands with rich, exploitable resources, of adversity in war, and of prosperity and nation building. It is also a history of human behaviour and the institutions created to harness and govern human endeavour. This account provides a systematic and comprehensive treatment of the nation's economic foundations, growth, resilience and future, in an engaging, contemporary narrative. It examines key themes such as the centrality of land and its usage, the role of migrant human capital, the tension between development and the environment, and Australia's interaction with the international economy. Written by a team of eminent economic historians, The Cambridge Economic History of Australia is the definitive study of Australia's economic past and present.

Download or read book Key Features of Australian Business Cycles written by Mr.Paul Cashin and published by INTERNATIONAL MONETARY FUND. This book was released on 2001-11-01 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper identifies and describes the key features of Australian business cycles during 1959-2000. In particular, we identify the chronologies in Australia's classical cycle (expansions and contractions in the level of output) and growth cycle (periods of above-trend and below-trend rates of economic growth). We find that while there are large asymmetries in the duration and amplitude of phases in Australia's classical cycle, on both measures the Australian growth cycle is much more symmetric. Further, our results indicate that over the sample period Australian (filtered) output and prices have moved in a counter-cyclical fashion, suggesting a dominance of shocks to aggregate supply affecting the Australian economy.
Download or read book Stagnation Nation written by Jim Minifie and published by . This book was released on 2017-02-26 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "As the mining investment boom fades, Australia risks falling into the stagnation that afflicts much of the rich world. This report examines what policymakes can do so that Australia remains a dynamic, growing economy. It focuses on private sector investment, a key to growth. Investment in Australia has been exceptionally strong. Since 2005, the capital stock per person has grown by a third. Even excluding mining, capital per person has grown by more than 15 per cent. By contrast, in both the US and Uk the capital stock per person grew by just 7 per cent. Strong investment has belped to increase output per person by 10 per cent between 2005 and 2015, compared to 6 per cent in the US and 4 per cent in the UK. But Australia is now experiencing its biggest ever five-year fall in mining investment, as a share of GDP. And non-mining business investment has fallen from 12 per cent to 9 per cent of GDP, lower than at any point in the 50 years from 1960 to 2010. It is important to keep this problem in perspective. Investment in the 2000a was buoyed by rapid growth and easy finance that masked longterm structural changes in the economy. With the shift to a services economy, and with lower capital goods prices, businesses can thrive with lower levels of investment. But about a third of the fall in nonmining investment is a result of the economy growing slowly, which discourages businesses from investing. What should the Australian govenernment do to encourage investment? There are no silver bullets - only tought choices. And we need to set realistic expectations that theses choices will only produce incremental increases in investment. The Turnbull Govenment proposes a cut in company tax. It would probably attract more foreign investment. But there are trade-offs. A cut would also reduce national income for years and would hit the budget. Committing to a tax cut before the budget is on a clear path to recovery risks reducing future living standards. Alternative company tax models like accelerated depreciatin or a cash flow tax can make investment more attractive, but would cos the budget even more in the earl years. An investment allowance would be cheaper, but may be difficult to administer. Calls for tax breaks for small business should be rejected. Other policies can encourage investment. Government deficits can expand expenditure and hence invesment. But they impose costs on futute taxpayers and can reduce flexibility in a crisis. The RBA should keep interest rates low; risjs to financial stability can be managed by tightening prudential standards. Governements, state and federal, should build more infrastructure, but only if they can build better infrstructure. And of course policy to support economic growth (by reducing tax distortions, boosting labour participation, encouraging competition, improving the efficieny of land use, and tightening regulatory frameworks) would also encourage private investment. Lower growth may well be the 'new normal', and investment is likely to remain below previous peaks. There is no reason to panic. But there is also no excuse for policy complacency. Australia should prudently encourage investment through this new reality."--Page 3.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this paper we test the long term dematerialization potential for Australia in terms of materials, energy, and water use as well as CO2 emissions, by introducing concrete targets for major sectors. Major improvements in the construction and housing, transport and mobility, and food and nutrition sectors in the Australian economy, if coupled with significant reductions in the resource export sectors, would substantially improve the current material, energy and emission intensive pattern of Australia's production and consumption system. Using the Australian Stocks and Flows framework we model all system interactions to understand the contributions of large scale changes in technology, infrastructure and lifestyle to decoupling the economy from the environment. The modelling shows a considerable reduction in natural resource use, while energy and water use decrease to a much lesser extent because a reduction in natural resource consumption creates a trade-off in energy use. It also shows that trade and economic growth may continue, but at a reduced rate compared with a business-as-usual scenario. The findings of our modelling are discussed in light of the large body of literature on dematerialization, eco-efficiency and rebound effects that may occur when efficiency is increased. We argue that Australia cannot rely on incremental efficiency gains but has to undergo a sustainability transition to achieve a low carbon future to keep in line with the international effort to avoid climate change and resource use conflicts. We touch upon the institutional changes that would be required to guide a sustainability transition in the Australian economy, such as, for instance, an emission trading scheme."--Authors' abstract.
