Abstract

In this paper, we consider a two-country and two-sector economy, where firms can choose to be innovative or not innovative, and workers to be skilled or unskilled. Using a dynamic game, we argue that exploiting the comparative advantages a country has in producing goods that use the most abundant factor of production, free mobility of capital and labor is beneficial for economic growth. However, if a country has a comparative advantage in a sector that uses intensely unskilled labor (which is the case of several underdeveloped economies), a poverty trap may arise. For this reason we argue that national Governments must ensure the technological development to improve competitiveness and therefore a social optimal use of the comparative advantages.
两国模式下资本和劳动力的自由流动:增长的动态博弈
在本文中,我们考虑一个两国两部门经济,企业可以选择创新或不创新,工人可以选择熟练或不熟练。本文运用动态博弈理论,论证了利用一国在生产使用最丰富的生产要素、资本和劳动力自由流动的商品方面的比较优势,有利于经济增长。但是,如果一个国家在使用高度非熟练劳动力的部门具有比较优势(几个不发达经济体就是这种情况),就可能出现贫困陷阱。因此,我们认为,各国政府必须确保技术发展,以提高竞争力,从而使社会最优地利用比较优势。
