Trevor Swan And The Neoclassical Growth Model
比较了斯旺和索洛在新古典增长模型上的异同，探讨索洛版本更受关注的原因，并结合斯旺未发表论文，说明增长模型在其学术发展中的地位。
The independent contributions of Robert Solow and the Australian economist Trevor Swan in developing the neoclassical growth model are sometimes recognized by reference to the “Solow-Swan” model, but often reference is made only to the “Solow” model. Both Solow (1956) and Swan (1956) created a simple, convenient, and powerful apparatus for finding the steady-state growth path of a one-commodity world. This paper examines the differences and similarities between Swan's and Solow's analysis and diagrams, the reasons why Solow's version received more attention, and, drawing on Swan's unpublished papers, the place of Swan's growth model in his intellectual development.
