Abstract
This paper explores the trade-off between efficiency and intra- and intergenerational equity in an endogenous growth model of an open economy with overlapping generations and human capital accumulation. We demonstrate that progressive taxes hurt long-run growth and exacerbate distortions associated with intergenerational spillovers. However, by raising saving, these taxes strengthen the net foreign asset position.
