In this paper we build an endogenous growth model where human capital and ideas are complements in the long-run equilibrium and technological progress takes the form of a continuous increase in the number of horizontally differentiated varieties of intermediate inputs. One peculiarity of the...

This paper presents the problem of satiation of consumption and technology in relation to a model of evolutionary endogenous growth. The model represents an attempt to provide an evolutionary economic micro foundation to Pasinetti's scheme of the structural economic dynamics of an economy that...

Following Gilbert and Shapiro (1990), we define … in the downstream sector increases the incentives of agents to do R&D in that sector but discourages innovation in the … downstream sector slows it down. We show that regardless of parameter values, welfare maximizing, rate of innovation maximizing …

The aim of this paper is to analyze the relationship between competition and growth in a model of human capital accumulation and research by disentangling the monopolistic mark-up in the intermediate goods sector and the returns to specialization in order to have a better measure of competition....

This paper overviews the main interactions between product market competition and long run growth.We focus on the first generation of R&D-based growth models and keep distinguished the vertical from the horizontal differentiation approaches. Our main objective is to study why these two branches...

This paper studies the economic determinants of the inter-sectoral allocation of skills within an R&Dbased growth model with human capital accumulation and imperfect competition. Using an aggregateR&D technology displaying constant returns to scale in human capital, I find that steady-state...
