Technology, learning, and long run economic growth in leading and lagging regions
Batabyal, Amitrajeet A.; Nijkamp, Peter - 2014
We use a dynamic model to study the effects of technology and learning on the long run economic growth rates of a leading and a lagging region. New technologies are developed in the leading region but technological improvements in the lagging region are the result of learning from the leading...

Innovation, decentralization, and planning in a multi-region model of Schumpeterian economic growth
Batabyal, Amitrajeet A.; Nijkamp, Peter - 2014
We study innovation and the resulting Schumpeterian economic growth that this innovation gives rise to in a model with N heterogeneous regions. For each region i where i=1,...,N, our analysis leads to five findings. First, we define the balanced growth path (BGP) allocations and the equilibrium...

In the absolute (relative) convergence case, the … convergence case, we analyze how to estimate the speed of convergence parameter (σ) and then discuss the relationship between the … variance of y<sub>j</sub>(t) and that of y<sub>j</sub>(0). In the relative convergence case, we study the error associated with …

On Economic Growth and Investment Income Taxation in a Creative Region
Donovan, Pierce - 2015
We study economic growth and investment income taxation in a region that is creative in the sense of Richard Florida. Specifically, this region possesses both creative and physical capital. Of the two sectors in this region, one produces final consumption goods and the other produces investment...

The Impact of Neutral and Nonneutral Productivity Growth on Creative Capital in a Trading Regional Economy
Batabyal, Amitrajeet A. - 2011
We analyze a two-sector model of a trading creative regional economy (TCRE) of the sort studied by Florida. Our analysis focuses on two cases. The first (second) case concerns the impact of faster neutral (non-neutral) productivity growth in the tradable sector on the employment of creative...

Ideologically-charged terminology : austerity, fiscal consolidation, and sustainable governance
Gründler, Klaus; Potrafke, Niklas - 2019
Scholars have been active in investigating causes and consequences of austerity policies. We examine how economists use the term "austerity" in scientific studies and measure austerity in empirical analyses. The sample includes around 3,500 journal articles published in the top 400 journals...
