Technological Progress and Sectoral Shares
This paper studies the effect of differences in the rate of technological progress between sectors on the relative sizes of those sectors in terms of revenues. There are two sectors: a stagnant sector, where productivity does not change over time, and a progressive sector, where costs decrease over time due to exogenous technological progress. We consider a conjectural variation approach to com...
متن کاملDiversity and Technological Progress
This paper proposes a tractable model to study the equilibrium diversity of technological progress and shows that equilibrium technological progress may exhibit too little diversity (too much conformity), in particular, foregoing socially bene cial investments in alternativetechnologies that will be used at some point in the future. The presence of future innovations that will replace current...
متن کاملShared Rights and Technological Progress∗
We study how best to reward innovators whose work builds on earlier innovations. Incentives to innovate are obtained by offering innovators the opportunity to profit from their innovations. Since innovations compete, awarding rights to one innovator reduces the value of the rights to prior innovators. We show that the optimal allocation involves shared rights, where more than one innovator is p...
متن کاملTechnological regimes and sectoral differences in productivity growth
The paper explores a novel extension of the R&D-productivity literature. It puts forward an empirical model where sectoral productivity growth is related to the characteristics of technological regimes and a set of other industry-specific economic features. The model is estimated on a cross-section of manufacturing industries in nine European countries for the period 1996-2001. The econometric ...
