Abstract
This paper considers a three-overlapping-generations model of endogeneous growth wherein human capital is the engine of growth. It first contrasts the laissez-faire and the optimality solutions. Then it discusses alternative sets of tax-transfer instruments that allow for decentralization of the social optimum.
