Adoption Curves and Social Interactions
Brock, William A. - 2009
This paper considers the observational implications of social influences on adoption decisions for an environment of perfect foresight adopters. We argue that social influences can produce two observable effects: 1) discontinuities in unconditional adoption curves and 2) pattern reversals in...

Of Time and Space : Technological Spillovers among Patents and Unpatented Innovations during Early U.S. Industrialization
Khan, B. Zorina - 2014
The paper explores the role of institutional mechanisms in generating technological knowledge spillovers. The estimation is over panel datasets of patent grants, and unpatented innovations that were submitted for prizes at the annual industrial fairs of the American Institute of New York, during...

ENTICE : Endogenous Technological Change in the DICE Model of Global Warming
Popp, David - 2003
Despite growing empirical evidence of the link between environmental policy and innovation, most economic models of … innovation in the energy sector. Ignoring induced technological change overstates the welfare costs of an optimal carbon tax …, as the effect of induced innovation on emissions and mean global temperature is small. Sensitivity analysis shows that …

Trade Wars, Technology and Productivity
Chen, Ching-mu - 2019
If international trade is strictly trade in intermediate goods, would the common presumption, that small, less developed economies (the South) lose from trade wars still be true? We address this question by constructing a dynamic general equilibrium model in which the North and the South trade...

Technology Diffusion
Stokey, Nancy - 2020
The importance of new technologies derives from the fact that they spread across many different users and uses, as well as different geographic regions. The diffusion of technological improvements, across producers within a country and across international borders, is critical for long run...

The Economics of Inefficient Technology Use
Beaudry, Paul - 2007
The adoption and diffusion of technological knowledge is generally regarded as a key element in a country's economic success. However, as is the case with most types of information, the transfer of technological knowledge is likely to be subject to adverse selection problems. In this paper we...
