متن کاملBorrowing Constraints and Technology Di¤usion: Implications of Intra-Industry Trade (Job Market Paper)
This paper develops a theory of total factor productivity di¤erences in a framework of technology di¤usion. I show how in countries with tighter borrowing constraints, frontier technologies di¤use more slowly, and old outdated technologies continue to be used. I analyse how countries with di¤erent borrowing constraints specialise across new and old technologies through two forms of intra-indust...
متن کاملInnovation, Di usion, and Trade
We explore the determinants of research specialization and examine the e ects of technology di usion and trade on the incentives for innovation. To some extent, di usion substitutes for trade. If trade costs are low relative to di erences in comparative advantage in doing research, rapid di usion implies specialization in research activity. Country size has an ambiguous e ect on specialization ...
