Resumo(s)
This Dissertation is about Markov chains and their role in economics and in econometrics theory. Four essays on the Markov chain ap- proach are presented.
We start by illustrating the analytical potential of multivariate Markov chains in the field of economic history, in particular with regard to a test of the Schumpeterian hypothesis of creative destruction.
Then, we ilustrate the flexibility of Markov chains, and their per- tinence to situations that go beyond their traditional applicability: i) how can a Markov chain play the role of covariates; ii) how can a Markov chain representation be useful to compute expected hitting times.
Finally, we present a new methodology for testing and detecting multiple structural breaks in multivariate Markov chains, where the dates at which the structural breaks occur are unknown.
