This paper analyzes the effects of 3D printing technologies on the volume of trade and on the structure of FDI. A standard model with firm-specific heterogeneity generates three main predictions. First, 3D printers are introduced in areas with high economic activity that also face high transport...

In this paper we analyze the dynamics of an R&D differential game allowing for technological spillovers and sigmoid … learning functions of multiproduct oligopolies. We demonstrate how the presence of learning together with spillovers may … both from the single firm dynamics with learning and from the duopoly case with spillovers and without learning. …

Recent innovation literature has documented the benefits of cross-pollination of ideas across a wide set of industries and technology fields in an economy. Industrial and trade policies, by contrast, tend to favor economic specialization through the promotion of selected sectors. In this paper...

Externalities play a central role in most theories of economic growth. We argue that international externalities, in particular, are essential for explaining a number of empirical regularities about growth and development. Foremost among these is that many countries appear to share a common long...

This paper is based on the model of backward linkages from foreign direct investment (FDI) Lin/Saggi (2003), where the market structure of the final goods sector is represented by a monopoly or Cournot oligopoly, and the supplier sector - by a pure monopoly. We extend this model by examining...

Second, to analyse the implications of specific spillovers embodied in trade of capital goods (machinery and … equipment), and third, to highlight the implications of accounting for indirect effects induced by spillovers. We find that …
