Government Spending Composition in a Simple Model of Schumpeterian Growth
This paper investigates the relevance of government purchasing behavior for innovationbased economic growth. We construct a parsimonious Schumpeterian growth model in which demand from the public sphere can effectively alter the economy’s rate of technological change. We incorporate results of various empirical studies arguing that public sector demand acts as incentive for private innovation a...
متن کاملStochastic Growth in Schumpeterian Dynamics
This paper discusses three key elements of stochastic growth in the Schumpeterian dynamics. These elements comprise the new entry of firms in an industry, the displacement of the old technology by the new and the nonlinear impact of learning by doing on the growth of innovating firms. Each of these elements has important implications for the new theory of endogenous growth. * Department of Econ...
متن کاملGrowth, Cycles and Welfare: A Schumpeterian Perspective∗
We use a Schumpeterian model in which both the economys growth rate and its volatility are endogenously determined to assess some welfare and policy implications associated with business cycle ßuctuations. Because it features a higher average growth rate than its acyclical counterpart, steady state welfare is higher along the cyclical equilibrium growth path of the model. We assess the impact...
متن کاملTransboundary Externalities and Property Rights: An International River Pollution Model
In this paper we study international river pollution problems. We introduce a model in which the agents (countries) located along a river derive benefit while causing pollution, but also incur environmental costs of experiencing pollution from all upstream agents. We find that total pollution in the model decreases when the agents decide to cooperate. The resulting gain in social welfare can be...

To do so, new growth theory indicates that Canada should ensure that competition policy boosts innovation, and that we should beware of further extending patent protection , while welcoming international trade and technological change.
