Employing the IAB Establishment Panel Survey on about 1200 … German innovation-based establishments during 2007-2011, findings demonstrate that adoption of employment practices …

We study innovation and the resulting Schumpeterian economic growth that this innovation gives rise to in a model with … balanced growth path (BGP) allocations and the equilibrium of interest. Second, we stipulate the form of the innovation … little innovation in (i) the ith region, (ii) an aggregate economy of N>2 regions and (iii) an aggregate economy of N=2 …

We study a dynamic general equilibrium model where innovation takes the form of the introduction new goods, whose … production requires skilled workers. Innovation is followed by a costly process of standardization, whereby these new goods are … substitution between goods and other parameters. Third, we show that the interplay between innovation and standardization may lead …

We estimate the persistence of knowledge in regional inventor networks … using alternative assumptions about knowledge transfer. Based on these estimates we analyze how the size and structure of a …
