In this article we use the unification of Germany in the 1990 to test the hypothesis that the increase of the supply of a production factor generates skill biased technical change. We test for this mechanism in the context of the Acemoglu and Autor (2011) model that allows for endogenous...

In this article we investigate – both conceptually and empirically – the relationship between three interconnected elements of the Schumpeterian “engine of progress”: the ability of industries’ R&D efforts to turn out successful innovations; the ability of innovations to lead to high...

In this article we extend the model developed by Bogliacino and Pianta (2013a, 2013b) on the link between R&D, innovation and economic performance, considering the impact of innovation of export success. We develop a simultaneous three equation model in order to investigate the existence of a...

English Abstract: The “virtuous circle” between innovative inputs, outputs and economic performance is investigated in this article with a three equation model highlighting feedback loops and simultaneous relations. An empirical test is carried out considering innovative expenditure,...

Spanish Abstract: En este artículo, analizamos el proceso de integración monetaria europea, mostrando las determinantes estructurales y los elementos disfuncionales en las instituciones. En segunda instancia, mostramos como hay dos lecturas prevalentes que fallan al interpretar los...
