  　View Summary

  We examine the positive and normative implications of externality-generating activities in the setting of an urban economy wherein households equilibrate their time allocation between social networking and business networking. Since every interaction is time consuming, households face a trade-off between enjoying social interaction and participating in business networks. We develop a monocentric city model with a time allocation decision to investigate the influence of externality-generating activities on the spatial structure of cities and assess the urban policies meant to facilitate social interaction. Two interdependent magnification forces are generated from social interactions and human capital spillovers. Households are subject to too much social isolation when a positive correlation exists between agglomeration and productivity.

• CAPITAL MOBILITY—RESOURCE GAINS OR LOSSES? HOW, WHEN, AND FOR WHOM?

  Hikaru Ogawa, Jun Oshiro, Yasuhiro Sato

  Journal of Public Economic Theory ( WILEY-BLACKWELL )  18 ( 3 ) 417 - 450   2016.06 [ Peer Review Accepted ]

  Type of publication: Research paper (scientific journal)

  　View Summary

  This paper investigates which of the two types of countriesresource-rich or resource-poorgains from capital market integration and capital tax competition. We develop a framework involving vertical linkages through resource-based inputs as well as international fiscal linkages between the two types of countries. Our analysis shows that capital market integration causes capital flows from resource-poor to resource-rich countries and improves global production efficiency. However, such gains accrue only to resource-poor countries, and capital mobility might even negatively affect resource-rich countries. Furthermore, we show that resource-rich countries can exploit the gains when taxes on capital are available.

  　View Summary

  This project analyzes the relationship between demographics and regional economic policies. Demographics include population changes caused by birth and death, migration, and the resulting population composition. <BR> We show that in political economy, regional policies chosen by local governments heavily depend on the population composition, and regions facing population aging are likely to impose inefficiently high taxes on firms to finance public good provision. We further show by using urban accounting that the labor wedge in the manufacturing sector is the most responsible for shaping the current Japanese population distribution across regions.
