The optimal transfer of capital and embodied technologies to developing countries
Hübler, Michael (contributor); Lontzek, Thomas (contributor) - 2009
We study the North-South diffusion of technologies embodied in internationally mobile capital in a framework of intertemporal global welfare maximization. Convergence of the growth rates of technical change in the North and South always occurs in the long-run. However, the degree to which the...

Diffusion of technology and convergence of income among countries
Oz, Sumru - 2014 - Preliminary version; April 9, 2014
Theoretical models of growth reveal that either exogenous or endogenous, technology is the main driving force behind the long-run economic growth. Furthermore, in the endogenous growth framework, diffusion of technology is the basic mechanism of per capita income convergence among countries....

Avoiding the trap: the dynamic interaction of North-South capital mobility and technology diffusion
Hübler, Michael - 2009
This paper analyzes a stylized model of international capital mobility and diffusion of embodied technologies from North to South. The South can fall behind in terms of technologies or get trapped in a situation, in which it is unable to attract foreign capital and embodied technologies, if its...

Welfare implications of international financial integration
Lee, Jong-Wha; Shin, Kwanho - 2008
Focusing on technology spillover from foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows, this paper investigates the welfare implications of financial integration. Calibrations of a neoclassical growth model with international technology diffusion show that when technology catch-up due to FDI inflows is...

Jánossy elmélete az új növekedéselmélet tükrében
Tarján, Tamás - 2010
If Janossy's theory should concisely be drafted, one might say that he had been researching the "real carrier of … economic development" in a very original way and having formulated his theory in a specific language. He managed to identify … growth theory that have appeared in the nineties. The "real carrier of economic development" matches to the "human capital …

Which Indicators of Absorptive Capacity Enhance Import-Induced South-North Convergence in Labor Intensities?
Hübler, Michael - 2013
We hypothesize that North-South trade is associated with knowledge spillovers that create labor productivity gains depending on various determinants of Southern absorptive capacity. We use the novel World Input-Output Database (WIOD) that provides bilateral and bisectoral panel data for 39...
