The majority of innovations are developed by multi-sector firms. The knowledge needed to invent new products is more easily adapted from some sectors than from others. We study this network of knowledge linkages between sectors and its impact on firm innovation and aggregate growth. We first...

In this study, we analyze the effect of knowledge spillover on productivity in the Indonesian manufacturing industry from 2010 to 2014 using inter-sectoral linkages and inter-regional linkages. For the first time in the literature, we apply an input-output table and geographic distance between...

We show that the combination of monopolistic competition and input-output linkages generate what we call an input distortion. The distortion arises because material input prices involve a markup over the social opportunity cost. This has so far escaped attention in the literature addressing...

Why are some sectors more volatile than others? This paper uncovers evidence of an empirical regularity in the U.S. economy: upstream sectors that are far removed from final consumers have higher levels of output volatility. The relationship between volatility and upstreamness is not driven by...

Taking the early U.S. automobile industry as an example, we evaluate four competing hypotheses on regional industry agglomeration: intra-industry local externalities, inter-industry local externalities, employee spinouts, and location fixed-effects. Our findings suggest that inter-industry...

This chapter addresses the impact of the composition of expenditures and the design of programs on the effectiveness of government expenditures. No clear empirical relationship has been found between growth and public expenditures. This may be due to differences in the efficacy of expenditure...

This paper studies the role of global input-output linkages in transmitting economic disturbances in the international economy. Our empirical results suggest that these sectoral spillovers are both statistically significant and of economic importance. We also provide evidence that it is not the...
