This book surveys existing similar econometric models in Japan and offers several econometric models combining Japan, the US and other Asia-Pacific countries. These models have been explored by the author and his group at Nagoya University and other institutions for three decades, and are applied for the following four objectives. First, they construct a world econometric model of industry and trade, second, they use an international input-output table, third, they use a small link model of China, Japan, Korea and the US, fourth, they offer a multi-sector econometric model of the interactions pertaining to economic activity, energy and environment in China, and assess the effects of improved energy efficiency and demand. | Econometric Modeling of Japan and Asia-Pacific Economies by Soshichi Kinoshita, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
