We estimate domestic productivity relationships for a sample of 16 OECD countries through probably the most general … specification yet. We identify ten key determinants of productivity - all derived from different theoretical models. Our … addressed. The sources of knowledge appear robust in driving productivity; however, other determinants postulated by different …

Keller (1998) reexamines Coe and Helpman`s (1995) analysis of international R&D spillovers focusing on the weights used to define the foreign R&D capital stock. Keller creates random weights and shows that they give rise to positive estimates of international R&D spillovers, casting doubts on...

We examine the dynamics of knowledge production for a panel of 19 OECD countries. A new and unique data set is used to proxy the domestic flows of “new-to-the-world” knowledge and ideas. We rigorously address the cross-country heterogeneity in the production of knowledge and the endogeneous...
