We explore the inventive activity and recombinant ideas in the field of economic growth research by analyzing the Journal of Economic Literature (JEL) classification codes assigned to articles published in the Journal of Economic Growth. The average number of JEL codes, authors, keywords, pages...

Since the mid-twentieth century, big-science research infrastructure (RI) has become an indispensable component in modern scientific research. Yet little is known about how emerging countries can use these expensive infrastructures to improve their indigenous innovation and catch up with...

A better understanding of current research practices and the development of attitudes about access and the sharing of research may help to better understand and possibly direct the use of illegal means towards legal means

Many and of different character documents define the relationships and roles in education and science – from laws and legal acts, to regulations, standards, simple rules and many others. Every such document plays a certain role in terms of their meaning and content. Within a certain framework,...

Endogenous growth models based on micro-foundations predict that total factor productivity (TFP) growth is positively associated with effective research effort. We use macroeconomic-pooled time series-cross sectional data for the G7 countries from 2000 to 2017 to provide a robust estimate of...

This paper investigates the local impact of biomedical research on mortality in the USA. Causally estimating the marginal value of biomedical research is challenging due to a lack of micro data linking health outcomes to plausibly exogenous variation in research. We create a new linkage between...
