Textbook of Computable General Equilibrium Modeling: Programming and Simulations

Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) models have been widely used for various economic simulations, such as trade liberalization, environmental problems, and regulatory and tax reforms. CGE models are powerful but tend to be large-scale and, therefore, often difficult to learn.

This book provides a comprehensive A-to-Z guide for CGE models. Focusing on their practical application, readers can learn from the simplest CGE models, and proceed, in a step-by-step manner, to database construction,...
