Abstract

We examine the dynamic property of a two sector model with sector-speci c externality and inferiority in consumption, and show that if one good is inferior, it is possible that multiple steady states exist and indeterminacy occurs around the one of the steady states. Also, it will be shown that capital intensity reversal between the private and the social levels is not necessary for indeterminacy to arise, and factor intensity ranking across two sectors does not matter to the result.
