Patent breadth in an international setting
Bond, Eric W.; Zissimos, Benjamin - 2017
We examine the Nash equilibria of a game where two national governments set patent breadth strategically. Broader patents make R&D more attractive, but the effect on static efficiency is nonmonotonic. In a North.South model, where only the North can innovate, harmonization of patent breadth...

Mirage on the horizon : geoengineering and carbon taxation without commitment
Acemoglu, Daron; Rafey, Will - 2018
We show that, in a model without commitment to future policies, geoengineering breakthroughs can have adverse environmental and welfare effects because they change the (equilibrium) carbon taxes. In our model, energy producers emit carbon, which creates a negative environmental externality, and...

Innovation by Entrants and Incumbents
Acemoglu, Daron - 2010
We extend the basic Schumpeterian endogenous growth model by allowing incumbents to undertake innovations to improve their products, while entrants engage in more “radical” innovations to replace incumbents. Our model provides a tractable framework for the analysis of growth driven by both...
