Abstract of the Paper (full text available upon request)
The structures, including technologies, industries, infrastructure and institutions, in a country have three attributes, namely, structurality, durationality, and transformality. The paper proposes a novel method to model the structural transformation in a market economy. With the common knowledge assumption, the paper proposes a generic model combining optimal control and optimal switching to study the static equilibrium and dynamic equilibrium of resource allocations under a given industrial structure and the equilibrium when the condition for transforming industrial structures arises by a social planner to maximize the representative household’s utility in a market economy. The paper establishes the mathematical underpinning of the static equilibrium, dynamic equilibrium and structural equilibrium. The generic model and its equilibria are then extended to economies with complicated economic structures consisting of hierarchical production, composite consumption, technology adoption and innovation, infrastructure, and economic and political institutions. The paper concludes with a brief discussion of applications of the proposed methodology to economic development problems in otherscenarios.
