environmental regulation on innovation and on productivity generally in separate analyses and mostly focusing on the USA. The few … existing studies focusing on Europe investigate the effect of environmental regulation either on green innovation or on … performance indicators such as exports. We instead look at overall innovation and productivity impact that are the most relevant …

We consider innovation incentives in markets where final goods comprise two strictly complementary components, one of … innovation is important. We explore ways in which the monopoly may have incentives to confiscate efficiency rents in the … competitive sector, thus weakening or destroying incentives for independent innovation. We discuss how these problems are affected …
