An endogenous growth model with renewable and nonrenewable Intermediate Goods (IGs) is developed to study the exogenous environmental quality effects on technological-knowledge bias and on Final-Good (FG) sector bias. Solving the transitional dynamics numerically and removing the scale effects,...

The Perpetual Inventory Model (PIM) assumes that, in each period, an arbitrary constant fraction of technological-knowledge stock is lost. We give a theoretical background to the PIM by showing that the technological-knowledge accumulation follows a dynamic process with an endogenous...

The recent widening of intra-country wage inequality in favour of high-skilled labour has been attributed by some authors to Skill-Biased Technological Change (SBTC) and by others to International Trade (IT) liberalization. As few empirical studies have tried to assess both explanations across a...

The explanation of the recent increase in intra-country wage inequality in favour of high-skilled labour has been dominated by two explanations: skill-biased technological change (SBTC) and international trade (IT) liberalization. Since few empirical studies have tried to assess both...
