We study innovation and the resulting Schumpeterian economic growth that this innovation gives rise to in a model with N heterogeneous regions. For each region i where i=1,...,N, our analysis leads to five findings. First, we define the balanced growth path (BGP) allocations and the equilibrium...

We use a multi-region model and provide the first theoretical analysis of the effects of human capital use and a particular kind of innovative activity on economic growth. In each of the N heterogeneous regions in our model, consumers have constant relative risk aversion preferences, there are...

We theoretically analyze unbalanced growth in an urban economy arising from the preferences of the creative class concerning the relative desirability of agricultural, manufacturing, and service goods. We study two cases. In the first case, the production functions for the three categories of...

We first construct a theoretical model of a regional economy with two sectors. One sector uses physical and creative capital - in the sense of Richard Florida (2002) - to produce a knowledge good that is traded. The other sector uses physical and social capital to produce a good that is not...

We provide what to the best of our knowledge is the first theoretical analysis of the total effects of human capital use, innovative activity, and patent protection, on economic growth in a model with many regions. In each region, consumers have constant relative risk aversion preferences, there...

We analyze two theoretical models of the connections between physical capital mobility, education in and the quality of creative capital, and the production of output in a region that is creative in the sense of Richard Florida. Our first model focuses on a single region which produces a...
