Abstract

Although many policies to raise the fertility rate have been conducted in many developed countries, they experience the low fertility rate. In the first place, what kind of impact will rapid population decline have on economic growth? This study is to analyze to answer these questions with two sector labor augmented growth model using two periods over-lapping-generations model. We consider a public capital by classifying it into two types, firstly, labor-augmented general public capital in final goods sector which indicated by Futagami, et al. (1993) and secondly, considering a public capital in childcare sector like as nursery school. This paper clearly shows the relationship between the optimal policies against the declining birthrate and an increase in the economic growth.
