We label the positive (negative) difference between these effects dominant Lewis (Baumol) dynamics. In steady state, and across two model variants, structural change leads to stagnation.

Individuals decide whether to pay or to evade taxes considering the expected economic net benefit and the reputational cost from tax evasion. Individuals differ in income and in the weight they attach to social reputation, which is updated by assessing the opinions shared in their reference group. The reference group contains individuals irrespective of their income (integrated society) or it is made up of peers belonging to the same income group (segregated society). We simulate the model in the two alternative settings to find the frequency distribution of taxpayers in a dataset of random networks. The results indicate that, in an integrated society, network conformity is reached and all individuals either evade or pay their taxes. Conversely, a segregated society might generate obstacles to the diffusion of opinions and, as a result, tax evasion and tax compliance might coexist. Lastly, we consider the effects of a social media campaign starring a celebrity financed by a fiscal authority to increase overall tax compliance by exploiting the diffusion dynamics in the network. We show that such a policy is more effective if the diffusion of opinions is not hindered by social segregation. In an integrated society, especially if income inequality is low, a celebrity's endorsement of tax compliance might nudge widespread socially responsible tax behaviour.</p>","PeriodicalId":46885,"journal":{"name":"Metroeconomica","volume":"73 4","pages":"1048-1069"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/meca.12391","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"137883519","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Bloise and Reichlin identify long-period analysis with steady states, which obscures the relevance of the supply-side problems of the conception of capital as a single factor. Also, they seem not to grasp how indefensible intertemporal general equilibrium theory is, because of the impermanence problem and of the absurdity of perfect foresight of novelties. But in fact the acceptance of neoclassical theory rests, not on general equilibrium theory, but on faith in the traditional marginalist adjustments based on capital conceived as a single factor—a conception destroyed by the neo-Ricardian critique, which therefore destroys the entire neoclassical approach. This critique points to problems which are logically prior to the instability issues to which Bloise and Reichlin reduce the critique; stability can be discussed only under ‘even-conceding’ assumptions (illustrative examples are Marshall, and Fratini).</p>","PeriodicalId":46885,"journal":{"name":"Metroeconomica","volume":"73 4","pages":"1021-1047"},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48705408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We start by developing a theoretical model of endogenous R&amp;D growth for an integrated area with two representative countries that differ in the economic development level. Then, we estimate an econometric model with panel data, considering combinations of 14 different countries, between 2000 and 2017. We show that an improvement in offshoring increases the comparative advantage of developing-South countries and decreases the wage gap between developed-North and South countries. In turn, an improvement in institutional quality increases the comparative advantage of the North and widens the wage gap between countries. Whatever the improvement, there is always an increase in the world economic growth rate.
