DYNAMIC EMPIRICS OF TRADE OPENNESS AND ECONOMIC GROWTH IN LATIN AMERICA: DO FAST REFORMERS GROW FASTER?

Barboza, Gustavo - In: Journal of Economic Development 32 (2007) 2, pp. 93-112

Intellectual Property Rights, Globalization and Growth

Stryszowski, Piotr K. - 2007

I present a model that combines the key features of a Schumpeterian growth model without scale effects and a North - South model of trade. All open economies converge to parallel growth paths because of costly technological transfer. I study the effects of intellectual property rights (IPR)...

The dynamics of economic integration : theory and policy

Bretschger, Lucas; Steger, Thomas M. - 2004

Integration affects economic growth mainly through two different channels : The scale-effect channel and the factor-reallocation channel. In order to investigate both channels within a unifying framework, we employ a simple descriptive growth model. The scale-effect channel increases either the...
