简介:This note revisits the proof of the Steady-State Growth Theorem, rst given
by Uzawa in 1961. We provide a clear statement of the theorem and a new
version of Uzawa's proof that makes the intuition underlying the result more
apparent. For example, in the special case of factor-augmenting technical change,
i.e. Yt = F(BtKt;AtLt), the effective inputs BK and AL must grow at the
same rate in steady state; otherwise trends in the factor shares are induced. The
fact that effective inputs must balance suggests a new interpretation of balanced
growth. Because capital accumulates and therefore inherits the trend in AL, the
balance condition implies that technical change must be purely labor augmenting.
关键字Key Words: Steady state, balanced growth, labor-augmenting technical change.
