Can we please take a moment to appreciate and thank not just the smart Professor in this video but also the video/sound editors/creators, animators etc who make this concept/theory so easy to understand. The visuals are f*****g amazing. Took me just 5 min to get Solow Model while my University charges me £12K a year to teach this yet fails to.

Superb explanation. Thank you sir

I'm happy I watched this even though I'm not doing economics at school lol

I enjoy watching your videos. I did economics in grad.

Very excellent tutorial. Kudos. But I have a question. Why does Solow model use per capita (1/L) variable?

Helpful video . Thank You

from the best explained videos ever seen!!

Thank you very much for the explanation. I am still wondering why this channel has < 200K viewers

Thank you!!!!

Thanks.

i like your vid. simple with exercise add on!

LIFESAVER

1) Thanks a lo for your help. However, I have a question. Does Solow represents better the situation of china? or Lewis?

How is ideas (letter A variable) measured?

According to solow model what drives growth is technology (that includes educated workers)

very good video

I, too, admire the production quality of this video, but the thinking represented here, not so much. One would expect a small economy to grow at a faster RATE than a large economy. It's simple math. Increasing from 1 to 2 in period amounts to a greater rate of growth than and increase from 6 to 7 in the same period.

Very interesting

Keep going on

Pretty simple: a rich man has more trouble doubling his net worth than a pauper. Same for nations: if you have (virtually) nothing, it doesn't take much to double it. Plus, in the case of (West) Germany and Japan, the "west" invested in their growth for ulterior motives (i.e. the Cold War). This was an "externality" that artificially boosted their growth rate.

Just started on this topic a day ago. Could this also be about decreasing marginal output? These giant economies are already operating at near or past GDP potential. There is no way up but just a little bit up or down

Dear Friends, Could you explain the meaning of Depreciation rate of this model?. Thank you.

better than my university lecturer

I understand this is an introduction to the model but I have some questions. First how do you quantify "A"? Second I feel that in the United States we have a problem with over educated individuals working lower skill jobs, would there be a bell curve effect if an economy was too educated? Finally why did he say China had lower human capital than the United States? Is human capital different than population?

A war has no winners only losers.

1:45 Did he just say that the other countries got more humans than china?

Why is it A not I for ideas?

I have a question, is the Solow model associated to the Neo-classical growth model? I mean, is it the same theory? I’m so sorry but I am so confused right now because in some articles it does refer to the Neo-classical growth theory and in some it doesn’t.

How come was the US winner in the World War 2?

It would have been nice if the title said the Robert Solow model because I just watched half of it and realized that it wasn't the Harrod-Domar Solow model. You seem very helpful but in this case you didn't help with the right thing....

@MarginalRevolutionUniversity

Hi Amanda! Apologies for the confusion. The Harrod-Domar model came first in the 1930s and the Solow model (or Solow-Swan model) superseded it after its development in the 1950s. I honestly can't say I've ever heard them referenced together as the Harrod-Domar Solow model. Even though we don't reference the Harrod-Domar model, there's only one Solow model, so this series should still be able to help you with your studies. Cheers, Meg

No one going to say anything about the claim that china has less human capital the france or Germany? Good vid tho

First, human capital is not equal to population. What he means is that human capital on those said countries is more educated and skilled times their population aka more productive citizen than China at that time. It's reasonable unless you believe otherwise.

One of my homework questions is 'Give the function of output per effective worker.' Is this just 'f(K/AN)' ?

the Prof.'s "China" is just a sophisticated version of that of trump

Investment in education is the most powerful investment

There are two missing pieces in this model, resources such as iron which are extracted ffrom the planet and waste or externalities such as pollution which are dumped at no cost in this model. To be fair this is a floor in all conventional economics not just these videos.

His accent tho

It is simple arithmetic. A poor country can grow very fast and can have much less actual growth. --10% of a million = 100,000 or 2% of a billion = 2,000,000 -- Is rebuilding a government building bombed in a war growth or just rebuilding a bombed building?
