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...

Issues germane to the provision of guided tours for tourists wishing to visit a particular location during the slack season have received scant theoretical attention in the tourism literature. Therefore, we conduct a stochastic analysis of guided tours for tourists during the slack season. We...

I discuss the contributions that rigorous economic analysis can make in improving our understanding of international environmental agreements (IEAs). Specifically, I do this by analyzing the intellectual contributions of 14 post-1990 theoretical and empirical papers about the design of IEAs

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 six findings. First, we define the balanced growth path (BGP) allocations and the equilibrium...
