We present a class of dynamic general-equilibrium models of education, innovation and technology transfer to explain …. Innovation and human-capital accumulation appear as in-line engines of scale-invariant endogenous growth. Industries evolve … according to stochastic processes of innovation, imitation and technology adaption in the global economy. …

We show a causal impact of immigration on innovation and dynamism in US counties. To identify the causal impact of … recent decades. We show four main results. First, immigration has a positive impact on innovation, measured by the patenting … impact of immigration on innovation percolates over space, but spatial spillovers quickly die out with distance. Fourth, the …

In this chapter we argue that the endogenous growth model with quality-improving innovations provides a framework for analyzing the determinants of long-run growth and convergence that is versatile, simple and empirically useful. Versatile, as the same framework can be used to analyze how growth...

We construct a competitive model of innovation and growth under constant returns to scale. Previous models of growth … under constant returns cannot model technological innovation. Current models of endogenous innovation rely on the interplay … innovation and sees the nonrivalrous nature of ideas as a natural conduit to increasing returns. The results here challenge the …
