European Tribune - Comments - What China wants

I would like to try my hand at a 3-way model of trade, reserves and currency valuations...

A great idea! You are well positioned to do that. Might I suggest contacting Steve Keen? He has done three sector dynamic models of the Australian economy using systems of ordinary differential equations.

As the Dutch said while fighting the Spanish: "It is not necessary to have hope in order to persevere."

Contacting Steve Keen (4.00 / 2)

No way! If I don't reinvent the wheel I won't learn anything out of the exercise.

True, but not a reason to ignore "prior art" as it were.

"Prior art" is only a concern if you're claiming priority or originality :)

But having an independently derived multi-sector, multi- nation dynamic model would be creating something that has never existed. I suspect that some interesting things would fall out of it.
