Abstract
-
The dissertation consists of a set of essays discussing various aspects of overlapping generations models. Following an introductory chapter, the essays are abstracted and introduced separately. The introduction reviews literature related to the basic problem of why money (or an alternative fiat asset) exists. Chapter two considers the role of learning in asset bubbles. In the final chapter, we evaluate the kinds of nonlinear dynamics that can emerge when health capital is included in a simple overlapping generations model.
