This paper reviews recent studies on the links between competition, innovation and productivity growth in the long run …

What are the sources of productivity growth? Economic theory offers a panoply of explanations, considering the effects …

We consider an R&D-driven endogenous growth model in which innovation is risky and agents are risk averse. Growth is … social insurance, thus encouraging innovation and accelerating growth. The general equilibrium effects of the reallocation of …

The paper studies a model of accumulation and growth where a continuum of heterogeneous firms play dynamically optimal … path of sustained growth requiring that the economy tackle a never-ending chain of fresh coordination problems.

Madrick. He argues that the growth of markets through trade, colonization, and domestic expansion was the predominate factor … in Western economic development. While technological innovation is necessary to growth, it is as much a consequence of … economic opportunity as it is a cause, and perhaps even more a follower of economic growth than a leader. …

Employing cross-country data, this paper evaluates the transitional dynamics predictions of a non-scale growth model of … endogenous technology innovation and imitation. We show that, unlike the neoclassical growth framework, the transitional dynamics … of the R&D-based growth model can account for growth "miracles". The additional convergence power provided by technology …
