dinâmica de mudança estrutural, progresso tecnológico investimento específico, acumulação de capitalResumo
Neste artigo, estendemos o modelo Pasinettiano de mudança estrutural e crescimento econômico para levar em consideração a possibilidade de o progresso tecnológico estar incorporado nos bens de capital. Nosso objetivo consiste em estudar os efeitos do progresso tecnológico investimento específico sobre a mudança estrutural, com especial ênfase nos seus impactos sobre variáveis macroeconômicas como o nível de emprego. Nossos achados mostram que, apesar de esse tipo de progresso tecnológico aumentar a produtividade dos bens de capital, ele impacta negativamente o nível de emprego e as condições de equilíbrio da economia.
