| Research Abstract |
We gained many insights through this research project. The most significant one is to reconfirm the importance of taking the incentive structure of agents who have policy-related stakes, when designing economic policies.
Our research report consists of 3 parts. In Part 1 "Incentive Issues in Japanese Public Work", we analyzed the implication of incentive constraints on the public work contracts which we thought was the main cause of the inefficient public spending during 1990s. In Part 2 "A Review of Japanese Macroeconomic Policies", we analyzed the effects of monetary policies, fiscal policies, privatization of public activities, and nationalization of private businesses. In Part 3 "An Evaluation of Japanese Economy in a Long-run based on Dynamic General Equilibrium Models", we analyzed the effects of the structural changes in aggregate demand composition on the economic growth in aging societies.
