This paper presents an analytical and numerical comparison of the welfare impacts of alternative instruments for environmental protection in the presence of endogenous technological innovation. We analyze emissions taxes and both auctioned and free (grandfathered) emissions permits. We find that...

In a second-best world of below-optimal pollution pricing, the public return to R&D may be greater than under Pigouvian pricing, due to excess benefits of increasing abatement, or it may be lower, since private actors lack the incentives to take full advantage of the new, cleaner technologies....

Almost continuous innovation in the area of new technologies and applications in second language teaching and learning can make research especially challenging. In longer-term projects, for example, the researcher may find that by the end of the project the technology that has been central to it...

The aim of this study is to investigate the impacts of technological innovation onemployment growth. These impacts are separated according to the type of innovation -process or product innovation - due to possible different correlations between thesetypes of innovation and employment growth....

This paper focuses on the practice of mobilizing key resources to build strategic capabilities based on technological innovation in a textile company in China.
