  • Économétrie, théorie des tests et philosophie des sciences 

    Dufour, Jean Marie (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2000)
    Dans ce texte, nous revoyons certains développements récents de l’économétrie qui peuvent être intéressants pour des chercheurs dans des domaines autres que l’économie et nous soulignons l’éclairage particulier que l’économétrie peut jeter sur certains ...

  • Economic Development under Alternative Trade Regimes 

    Castro, Rui (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2005)
    How does openness affect economic development? This question is answered in the context of a dynamic general equilibrium model of the world economy, where countries have technological differences that are both sector-neutral and specific to the investment ...

    Castro, Rui; Clementi, Gian Luca (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2009-02)
    The Portuguese economy has performed remarkably well since joining the EU in 1986. Output per worker grew at an annual rate of 2.25%. The relative price of investment has declined. Real investment has increased compared to output, in part fuelled by ...

    An exemination of a series of indicators of economic integration in the western hemisphere (Canada-USA-Latin America) indicates that it is proceeding under the influence of formal trade agreements and informal forces including technological change, ...

    Nous étudions l'effet sur le marché des aliments de l'introduction sur le marché de l'énergie de biocarburants, comme substitut aux combustibles fossiles. Nous supposons une économie où cohabitent sur le marché de l'énergie un cartel pétrolier et une ...

    Perron, Pierre; Ghysels, Eric (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 1994)

  • The Effect of Public Spending on Consumption: Reconciling Theory and Evidence 

    Ambler, Steve; Bouakez, Hafedh; Cardia, Emanuela (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2008-09)
    Recent empirical evidence from vector autoregressions (VARs) suggests that public spending shocks increase (crowd in) private consumption. Standard general equilibrium models predict the opposite. We show that a standard real business cycle (RBC) model ...

  • The Effects of Government Financial Policies: Can We Assume Ricardian Equivalence? 

    Cardia, E. (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 1994)

  • The Effects of Periodic Quotas Limiting the Stock of Imports of Durables 

    Gaudet, Gérard; Salant, Stephen W. (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2002)
    Analyses of trade quotas typically assume that the quota restricts the flow of some nondurable good. Many real-world quotas, however, restrict the stock of durable imports. We consider the cases where (1) anyone is free to export against such quotas and ...

  • The Effects of the Length of the Period of Commitment on the Size of Stable International Environmental Agreements 

    Nkuiya Mbakop, Robeny Bruno; Gaudet, Gérard (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2009-12)
    This paper extends the standard model of self-enforcing dynamic international environmental agreements by allowing the length of the period of commitment of such agreements to vary as a parameter. It analyzes the pattern of behavior of the size of ...

  • Efficiency in Uncertain Cooperative Games 

    Bossert, Walter; Derks, Jean; Peters, Hans (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2001)
    A contingent contract in a transferable utility game under uncertainty specifies an outcome for each possible state. It is assumed that coalitions evaluate these contracts by considering the minimal possible excesses. A main question of the paper ...

  • The Efficiency of Collective Bargaining in Public Schools 

    Hosken, D.S.; Margolis, D.N. (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 1996)
    This paper develops a bargaining model of wage and employment determination for the public sector. the solution to the model generates structural wage and employment equations that are estimated using data from New York State teacher-school district ...

  • Efficient and Non-Deteriorating Choice 

    Bossert, Walter; Sprumont, Yves (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2002)
    We analyze collective choice procedures with respect to their rationalizability by means of profiles of individual preference orderings. A selection function is a generalization of a choice function where selected alternatives may depend on a reference ...

  • Efficient Priority Rules 

    Ehlers, Lars; Klaus, Bettina (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2003)
    We study the assignment of indivisible objects with quotas (houses, jobs, or offices) to a set of agents (students, job applicants, or professors). Each agent receives at most one object and monetary compensations are not possible. We characterize ...

  • Efficient Strategy-Proof Allocation Functions in Linear Production Economies 

    MANIQUET, François; Sprumont, Yves (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 1998)
    In a linear production model, we characterize the class of efficient and strategy-proof allocation functions, and the class of efficient and coalition strategy-proof allocation functions. In the former class, requiring equal treatment of equals allows ...

  • The Efficient Use of Multiple Sources of a Nonrenewable Resource under Supply Cost Uncertainty 

    Gaudet, Gérard; Lasserre, Pierre (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2008-03)
    Uncertainties as to future supply costs of nonrenewable natural resources, such as oil and gas, raise the issue of the choice of supply sources. In a perfectly deterministic world, an efficient use of multiple sources of supply requires that any given ...

    Meddahi, Nour (Université de Montréal. Département de sciences économiques., 2001)
    In this paper, we introduce a new approach for volatility modeling in discrete and continuous time. We follow the stochastic volatility literature by assuming that the variance is a function of a state variable. However, instead of assuming that the ...
