Non-linear dynamics and endogeneous cycles. Workshop, Paris, France, May 23--24, 1996 (Q1389383)

The articles of this volume will be reviewed individually. Publisher's description: Considerable work has been done on chaotic dynamics in the field of economic growth and dynamic macroeconomic models during the last two decades. This book considers numerous new developments: introduction of infrastructure in growth models, heterogeneity of agents, hysteresis systems, overlapping models with ``pay-as-you-go'' systems, Keynesian approaches with finance considerations, interactions between relaxation cycles and chaotic dynamics, methodological issues, long memory processes and fractals\dots{} A volume of contributions which shows the relevance and fruitfulness of nonlinear analysis for the explanation of complex dynamics in economic systems.
