We develop a dynamic spatial growth model to explore the role of trade and internal migration in the process of spatial … knowledge. Global ideas diffuse more to locations that are relatively more exposed to international trade. Local ideas are … diffused across space when workers move to another location. We embed the diffusion of ideas through trade and migration into a …
