This is an advanced course on the study of innovation and entrepreneurship in economic science. We will focus especially on the role of competition and market structure, on the history of technology, on intellectual property, and on incentives for innovation. We will rely on analytical models as well as less formal reasoning. Depending on the topic covered, class will be a combination of lecture and class discussion. It is absolutely required that you prepare for class by reading the assigned materials (see the attached preliminary schedule). Several of these are intense, and you should plan on reading them very slowly and more than once.
