We study the implications of the interaction between human capital and knowledge spillovers for one kind of semi-endogenous economic growth in a region. We focus on two cases. In the first (second) case, there is no growth (growth) in the stock of human capital but knowledge spillovers are...

There is a family of models with Physical, Human capital and Ramp;D for which convergence properties have been discussed (Arnold, 2000a; Gomez, 2005). However, spillovers in Ramp;D have been ignored in this context. We introduce spillovers in this model and derive its steady-state and stability...

Using a human capital based growth model, we show the essential role of labor mobility and cross-country tax harmonization in equalizing income levels of countries that start off from different initial income positions. Knowledge spillovers cum labor mobility are the driving forces behind the...
