La crescita endogena: una rilettura critica

  • Augusto Schianchi

Abstract

Il problema della crescita endogena costituisce una linea di evoluzione della teoria economica che sembra non avere esaurito le sue potenzialit?: le recenti teorie di diffusione delle idee propongono una prospettiva analiticamente precisa, e concettualmente affascinante, sul significato stesso di progresso nelle moderne economie avanzate. Di particolare interesse risulta il fatto che nelle teorie della crescita endogena il ruolo del capitale umano assume contorni ben definiti, in termini di variabili esplicite che appaiono nelle equazioni della crescita. In questo breve saggio si propone una rassegna critica dei principali contributi allo sviluppo di una teoria della crescita endogena, in particolare quelli di Paul Romer (1986, 1990), con l?intento di chiarire le idee economiche che stanno alla base di tale rivoluzione, in primo luogo, learning by doing, rendimenti crescenti ed esternalit? di conoscenza. Un recente lavoro di Schianchi e Mantovi (2016) sembra delineare sviluppi innovativi sull?impianto metodologico della crescita endogena
