Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Macroeconomics
  • Microeconomics
  • Human capital

Oded Galor mainly investigates Human capital, Unified growth theory, Per capita income, Technological change and Demographic transition. His Human capital study combines topics in areas such as Investment and Income distribution. The concepts of his Unified growth theory study are interwoven with issues in Industrialisation, Population growth and Macroeconomics.

The various areas that Oded Galor examines in his Population growth study include Per capita, Demographic economics and Gains from trade. His Per capita income study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Economic stagnation, Development economics and Standard of living. The study incorporates disciplines such as Economic system and Economic geography in addition to Technological change.

His most cited work include:

  • Income Distribution and Macroeconomics (3000 citations)
  • Population, Technology, and Growth: From Malthusian Stagnation to the Demographic Transition and Beyond (1411 citations)
  • The Gender Gap, Fertility and Growth (931 citations)

His work deals with themes such as Industrialisation, Income distribution, Distribution, Investment and Unified growth theory, which intersect with Human capital. His studies in Income distribution integrate themes in fields like Economic inequality and Labour economics.

His Unified growth theory research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Economic growth and Convergence clubs. Oded Galor has included themes like Population growth, Standard of living, Economic geography and Demographic economics in his Per capita income study.
