The environment, life expectancy, and growth in overlapping generations models: A survey
这篇综述梳理了使用重叠世代模型分析经济增长、环境因素与预期寿命之间相互关联的研究，讨论了健康投资、技术进步、政府支出、税收结构和不平等的作用，并总结了不同模型的政策含义。
Abstract It is widely accepted that environmental and demographic changes will significantly influence the future of our society. In recent years, an increasing number of studies has analyzed the interlinkages among economic growth, environmental factors, and a specific demographic variable, namely life expectancy, applying an overlapping generations framework. The aim of this survey is threefold. First, we review the role of life expectancy and pollution for sustainable growth. Second, we discuss the role of intervening factors like health investment and technological progress as well as institutional settings including government expenditures, tax structures, and inequality. Finally, we summarize policy implications obtained in different models and compare them to each other.
