Variety, Spillovers and Market Structure in a Model of Endogenous Technological Change
Peretto, Pietro F. - 2008
I study an economy where oligopolistic firms establish in-house R&D programs to produce a continuous flow of cost-reducing (incremental) innovations. The scale of firms' R&D operations determines the rate of productivity growth. I first study the role of concentration, firm size, and demand,...

Endogenous skilled-biased technological change and matching unemployment
Stadler, Manfred; Wapler, Rüdiger - 2001
This paper presents a general-equilibrium model of endogenous skilled-biased technological change and matching unemployment in a disaggregated economy. We simultaneously endogenise both the direction and pace of technological change as well as the unemployment rates. We show that an increase in...

Is regional innovative activity path-dependent? : an empirical analysis for Germany
Bode, Eckhardt - 2001
Based on a standard idea-based model of endogenous growth we test the hypothesis that regional innovative activity is path-dependent, and investigate the geographical scope of knowledge spillovers. Using data for West-German regions, two alternative indicators of the stock of knowledge are...

The Effect of Female and Male Schooling on Economic Growth in the Barro-Lee Model
Lorgelly, Paula K.; Owen, P. Dorian - 2000

R&D-based growth in the post-modern era
Strulik, Holger; Prettnerz, Klaus; … - 2010
Conventional R&D-based growth theory suggests that productivity growth is positively correlated with population size or population growth, an implication which is hard to see in the data. Here we integrate microfounded fertility and schooling into an otherwise standard R&D-based growth model. We...
