Inventor mobility, knowledge diffusion, and growth
Koike-Mori, Yasutaka; Maruyama, Toshitaka; Okumura, Koki - 2024
This paper develops an endogenous growth model that incorporates a frictional inventor market and examines the allocation of inventors across firms, knowledge diffusion, and its impact on growth. In our model, inventors play dual roles: they engage in in-house R&D and transfer knowledge from...

A Remark on the Form of Accumulation Functions in Economic Growth Models
Yetkiner, I. Hakan - 2012
This study is a short note designed to underline the importance of using the theoretically required form of accumulation functions. It is now a common knowledge that a growth model must rely on non-diminishing returns to a factor of production in order to generate endogenous growth. In Lucas...

Education, economic growth and measured income inequality
Rehme, Günther - 2006
In this paper education simultaneously affects growth and income inequality. More education does not necessarily … decrease inequality when the latter is assessed by the Lorenz dominance criterion. Increases in education first increase and … information on the nonlinear relationship between growth and education. …

Dynamic Effects and Structural Change under Environmental Regulation in a CGE Model with Endogenous Growth
Ramer, Roger - 2011
In this paper, we use a CGE model with endogenous growth to study the interplay between environmental regulation, innovation and sectoral growth. We find that a stringent reduction target for carbon emissions combined with a CO2-tax leads to structural changes. Under the assumption of a...

Economic effects of a nuclear-phase out policy: A CGE analysis
Bretschger, Lucas; Ramer, Roger; Zhang, Lin - 2012
The paper investigates the long-run consequences of a phase-out of nuclear energy for the Swiss economy. We apply the CITE model, a CGE model with fully endogenous growth, and complement it with a bottom-up model. We find that the nuclear phase-out can be achieved at relatively low costs, even...

Carbon policy in a high-growth economy: The case of China
Bretschger, Lucas; Zhang, Lin - 2014
There is widespread concern that an international agreement on stringent climate policies will not be reached because it would imply too high costs for fast growing economies like China. To quantify these costs we develop a general equilibrium model with fully endogenous growth. The framework...

Knowledge Diffusion, Endogenous Growth, and the Costs of Global Climate Policy
Bretschger, Lucas; Lechthaler, Filippo; Rausch, Sebastian; … - 2015
This paper examines the effects of knowledge diffusion on growth and costs of climate policy. We develop a general equilibrium model with endogenous growth which represents knowledge diffusion between sectors and regions. Knowledge diffusion depends on accessibility and absorptive capacity which...
