Uzawa–Lucas model

The Uzawa–Lucas model is an economic model of endogenous growth developed by Robert Lucas, Jr.,[1] building upon initial contributions by Hirofumi Uzawa.[2] It extends the AK model by a two-sector setup, in which physical and human capital are produced by different technologies. The model explains long-run economic growth as consequence of human capital accumulation.
