Technology and costs in international competitiveness : from countries and sectors to firms

Dosi, Giovanni; Grazzi, Marco; Moschella, Daniele - 2014

This paper examines the determinants of international competitiveness at the level of sectors and firms. First, we address the relation between cost-related and technological competition in a sample of fifteen OECD countries. Results suggest that the countries' sectoral market shares are indeed...

In order to stand up you must keep cycling : change and coordination in complex evolving economies

Dosi, Giovanni; Virgillito, Maria Enrica - 2016

In this work we discuss the main building blocks, achievements and challenges of an evolutionary interpretation of the relation between mechanisms of coordination and drivers of change in modern economies, seen as complex evolving systems. It is an evident stylised fact of modern economic...

Animal spirits, lumpy investment and endogenous business cycles

Dosi, Giovanni (contributor); Fagiolo, Giorgio (contributor) - 2007 - June 2006

In this paper, we present an evolutionary model of industry dynamics yielding endogenous business cycles with 'Keynesian' features. The model describes an economy composed of firms and consumers/workers. Firms belong to two industries. The first one performs R&D and produces heterogeneous...

Competitive strategies, heterogeneous demand sources and firms' growth trajectories

Caravella, Serenella; Crespi, Francesco; Guarascio, Dario; … - 2020

The present paper explores the demand-pull effect of distinct demand sources (i.e. households and retailers, other firms and public sector) on Italian companies' growth patterns. Data relies on the PEC (Indagine sulle Professioni e le Competenze) survey carried out by the Institute for Public...

Sectoral and geographical specifities in the spatial structure of economic activities

Bottazzi, Giulio; Dosi, Giovanni; Fagiolo, Giorgio; … - 2007

This work explores the spatial distribution of productive activities in the Italian manufacturing industry. We propose an econometric model which tries to disentangle locationspecific from sectoral drivers in the dynamic process of spatial agglomeration. The basic idea is that the former...

Modeling industrial evolution in geographical space

Bottazzi, Giulio; Dosi, Giovanni; Fagiolo, Giorgio; … - 2007

In this paper we study a class of evolutionary models of industrial agglomeration with local positive feedbacks, which allow for a wide set of empirically-testable implications. Their roots rest in the Generalized Polya Urn framework. Here, however, we build on a birth-death process over a...

The footprint of evolutionary processes of learning and selection upon the statistical properties of industrial dynamics

Dosi, Giovanni; Pereira, Marcelo C.; Virgillito, Maria … - 2015

Evolutionary theories of economic change identify the processes of idiosyncratic learning by individual firms and of market selection as the two main drivers of the dynamics of industries. Are such processes able to robustly account for the statistical regularities which industrial structures...
