متن کاملTrade, Patents and International Technology Diffusion
This paper investigates international technology diffusion through trade and patenting in a sample of 48 countries for the period 1980 – 2000. We divide the sample in three income groups to detect different patterns of technology absorption. Our results show that rich countries benefit from domestic technology and foreign technology embodied in imported capital goods, middle-income countries en...
متن کاملHeterogeneous Technology Diffusion and Ricardian Trade Patterns
This study tests the importance of Ricardian technology differences for international trade.

The lat...
