We analyse how spatial disparities in innovation activities, coupled with migration costs, affect economic geography …, growth and regional inequality. We provide conditions for existence and uniqueness of a spatial equilibrium, and for the …. Narrowing the gap in knowledge spillovers across regions raises growth, and reduces regional inequality by making firms more …

redistribution can promote growth and welfare by mitigating economic waste from resource misallocation that is caused by credit … local or global origin, then even with endogenous growth led by constant returns to capital, the ERH survives …

internalisation of knowledge externalities. Moreover, we show that implementing technology policy as a substitute for stabilisation …

source of growth and welfare …We provide a unified framework for quantifying the cross-country and cross-sector interactions among trade, innovation …, and knowledge diffusion. We study the effect of trade liberalization in an endogenous growth model in which comparative …

What is the social value of innovations in Schumpeterian growth models? This issue is tackled by introducing the … concept of Lindahl equilibrium in a standard endogenous growth model with vertical innovations which is extended by explicitly …

This paper analyzes the link between the fact that fully endogenous growth models exhibit (or not) the non … Schumpeterian growth model by introducing explicitly knowledge diffusion over a Salop (1979) circle: a continuum of sectors … growth rate is. The paper tackles the apparent following paradox. Knowledge diffusion seems to lead to scale effects; however …

This paper challenges the key assumption in "idea based growth models" that innovation rents ultimately reward the … bulk of the innovation rents and are generally the residual claimant. We develop a model that separates invention from … innovation where new ideas are a costless spillover from profit motivated corporate R&D aimed at improving existing production …

A growth model is presented that examines i) the creation of skill-biased knowledge through invention (defined here as … additions to leading-edge knowledge) and ii) its diffusion to adoptive knowledge through innovation (defined here as later … applications of knowledge to low cost production methods). The model incorporates my theory that invention, innovation, and …
