Abstract

In most countries there is a need for a technique to develop consistent sectoral and regional scenarios for long-term planning or forecasting purposes.

This paper presents a set of models designed to satisfy this requirement. The models are based on dynamic input-output theory, without the linearity constraint.

The focus of these models is on long-term problems and we have therefore concentrated the analysis on scenarios of the general equilibrium type. The models have been constructed so as to be applicable also in situations of limited statistical information in terms of capital trade flow measurements. The method has been applied to market and planned economies. Numerical problems are discussed in the paper.
