We present a class of dynamic general-equilibrium models of education, innovation and technology transfer to explain …. Innovation and human-capital accumulation appear as in-line engines of scale-invariant endogenous growth. Industries evolve … according to stochastic processes of innovation, imitation and technology adaption in the global economy. …

analyzes a model of North-South trade and endogenous growth through innovation and imitation that can predict the observed … both the innovation in the North and the imitational lag of the South. Opening to trade increases the growth rate and …Recent evidence on world trade patterns reveals North-South specialization across products of the same industries and …
