Technological progress as a major source of economic development stems from the interaction of two types of innovations, drastic and incremental. While the former sets the fundamental pace of economic progress by redefining production possibilities as Schumpeter strongly emphasized, the latter...

Following our previous study that established the concept of limited technology transferability, this paper analyses the equilibrium outcomes of two forms of research joint ventures (RJVs). The marginal analysis shows that market equilibria of perfect and imperfect RJVs result in a socially...

[fre] C'est l'exigence de l'efficience du dispositif matériel qui est également la source de l'irréversibilité fondamentale de l'évolution technologique. Une fois appréhendée dans ses dimensions allocatives et cumulatives, la prise en compte de l'irréversibilité permet d'approfondir la...

[eng] Informatisation is not just another version of the general tendency towards automation. The progressive introduction of information technology enable firms to adjust better to technical and economic environment changes. While flexibilite is essentially a reaction to high uncertainty...

[fre] Aux mouvements longs de l'activité économique correspondent très clairement des technologies spécifiques. La théorie schumpeterienne, bien que centrée sur la dynamique de l'innovation, ne propose pas une analyse économique explicite du processus de développement des technologies....
