Urban unemployment and optimal tax policy in a small, open dual economy
This paper analyses optimal tax policies in a two‐sector model of an LDC, similar to that of Harris and Todaro [1970]. The analysis assumes a small, open economy with a non‐competitive urban wage which depends on prices of both agricultural and manufactured goods. Optimal policies are considered for cases where an employment subsidy in manufacturing and/or taxes on international trade are the only feasible instruments, and where government revenu…

Approximating the Least-Squares Bias in Multiple Regression with Errors in Variables
imports, where quoted import price indexes are used to avoid serious measurement errors and information on changes in the variables over years is utilizecl. It has been found that the elasticity is numerically larger for finished goods than for crude materials and intermediate goods. Effects of time lags are different between commodity types; in the case of finished goods, adjustment to price changes seem to be completed within a year, but for ma…
Foreign aid, population growth, and the gains from birth control
In this article we consider a twofold problem: (a) the foreign aid cost of changing a stagnant or ‘trapped’ economy to one which is capable of sustaining its own growth, and (b) the accrued benefits of a family planning programme in achieving this. Specifically, we cite the case of an economy trapped in a so‐called low‐level equilibrium and evaluate the change in the amount of foreign aid that is required to achieve self‐sustained growth when the…
