Conventional R&D-based growth theory suggests that productivity growth is positively correlated with population size or population growth, an implication which is hard to see in the data. Here we integrate micro-founded fertility and schooling into an otherwise standard R&D-based growth model....

Are we currently living through a new industrial and technological revolution? Does it differ qualitatively from similar revolutions in the past? How can we gauge its political implications? Researchers working within the school of evolutionary economics, in particular those who embrace the...

The fundamental problem in the field of the economics of innovation is which economic subjects are the sources of radical innovations and high technological performances. The study here confronts this problem by developing a theoretical framework underpinned in the concept of purposeful system...

This article discusses the penetration of communication technologies in communication and social behavior patterns of rural and urban communities. The Internet was not able to erode the sense of nationalism and replace it with global values. This study also illustrates the effective...

Fifth Industrial Revolution: The fifth industrial revolution is a term that is used to describe the impact of converging technologies such as Artificial Intelligence, blockchain, virtual and augmented reality, biotechnology and much more. This phase marks an increasingly deep integration between...
