Book Synopsis A State of Minds by : Thomas J. Courchene
Download or read book A State of Minds written by Thomas J. Courchene and published by IRPP. This book was released on 2001 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when the world changes in ways that make Canada's physical capital, natural resources, and geography – once the ultimate competitive advantages – less important than knowledge, information, technological know-how, and human capital? What happens to Canadians? In A State of Minds Thomas Courchene examines the political structures that link local, provincial, and federal governments and challenges many longstanding beliefs about how society should be organised and financed. While focusing on Canadian competitiveness in a global economy, Courchene shows us how an open federal state like Canada can achieve both economic prosperity and social justice. Always provocative, Courchene blends compelling analysis and reasoned insight with a prescription for change: To stay ahead of the competitive curve and protect the Canadian way of life, Canada must become a "state of minds."

Book Synopsis From Pride to Influence by : Michael Hart
Download or read book From Pride to Influence written by Michael Hart and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2009-04-30 with total page 450 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent Canadian foreign policy has fixated upon Canada's former status as a middle power within a small club of western, democratic states. The emergence of a US-dominated world and of an integrated North American economy and the decline of multilateral rules and institutions as prime instruments of global governance have left Canadian foreign policy searching for new purpose and direction. From Pride to Influence brings Canadian foreign policy into the twenty-first century by grounding it in a conception of the national interest that accepts the primacy of the United States in guaranteeing Canadian national security and prosperity.

Book Synopsis Lien Entre L'innovation Et la Productivité Dans Les Industries Manufacturières by : Wulong Gu
Download or read book Lien Entre L'innovation Et la Productivité Dans Les Industries Manufacturières written by Wulong Gu and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper argues that the lack of evidence for a strong link between innovation & productivity in Canada is due to incomplete measures of innovation. The authors first construct a comprehensive measure of innovation that models innovation as an unobservable latent variable that underlies four indicators: research & development propensity, measured as a percentage of output; patents per worker; technology adoption, measured as real investment in machinery & equipment; and skill intensity, measured as the employment share of workers with a university education. The authors then examine the relationship between innovation & productivity in 14 Canadian manufacturing industries over 1980-1997 using the new measure. The results also show that the length of time it takes for innovation to have a positive & significant impact on productivity differs across industries.

Book Synopsis Politique Sociale Et Croissance de la Productivité by : Richard G. Harris
Download or read book Politique Sociale Et Croissance de la Productivité written by Richard G. Harris and published by Canadian Museum of Civilization/Musee Canadien Des Civilisations. This book was released on 2002 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper presents a survey of the evidence and debate on the social determinants of productivity in the context of the Canadian productivity debate. The purpose of the paper is to try to make sense of the seemingly contradictory pieces of theory and evidence linking social policy to economic growth. Essentially the paper looks at 4 areas of research: the growth and inequality debate; the small but growing literature on the policy determinants of economic growth; an examination of 2 specific social policies (education and health); the literature on major technological change, wage inequality and the new economy. To provide the context for this discussion, the paper also includes some background material on economic growth, productivity, and social policy in OECD countries.

Book Synopsis Commerce International, Le Commerce Interprovincial Et la Croissance Des Provinces Canadiennes by : Serge Coulombe
Download or read book Commerce International, Le Commerce Interprovincial Et la Croissance Des Provinces Canadiennes written by Serge Coulombe and published by Canadian Museum of Civilization/Musee Canadien Des Civilisations. This book was released on 2003 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper provides an empirical analysis of the comparative evolution of interprovincial & international trade and their effects on regional growth for the Canadian provinces since 1981. It first establishes the trend in the relationship between the ratios of interprovincial & international trade to gross domestic product, revealing a sharp break that occurred around 1991. The analysis casts doubt on the pure diversion model often used in trade modelling. The second part uses a conditional convergence-growth model to estimate the respective long-run effects of interprovincial & international trade on Canadian regional economies, specifically in relation to productivity, relative gross domestic product per capita, and job creation. The final chapter discusses implications of the results for regional economies & economic policy issues.
Book Synopsis Déterminants Économiques de L'innovation by : Randall Morck
Download or read book Déterminants Économiques de L'innovation written by Randall Morck and published by Industrie Canada. This book was released on 2001 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores what economists know about the economics of innovation. It identifies key empirical research on different aspects of what causes the pace of innovation to be faster or slower. A selective survey of empirical work on the determinants of innovation, guided by relevant economic theory, discusses the economics of information & its relation to innovation; the effects on the pace of innovation of the strength of intellectual property rights, firm size & market structure, geographic distribution of firms, corporate decision-making, national culture, financial systems, human capital accumulation, and checks on inequality; and whether government policy determines innovation.

Book Synopsis Infrastructure Politique Nationale Et Investissement Étranger Direct by : Steven Globerman
Download or read book Infrastructure Politique Nationale Et Investissement Étranger Direct written by Steven Globerman and published by Industrie Canada. This book was released on 2002 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is widely argued that a country's economic performance over time is determined to a great extent by its political, institutional, and legal environment. We refer to these public institutions and policies as the national political infrastructure (NPI) of a country. This report focusses on the linkage between measures of NPI and foreign direct investment (FDI) flows. Specifically, it tests the hypothesis that FDI will be attracted to regions characterized by more favourable NPIs. It also argues that countries with more favourable NPIs will create more domestic multinational enterprises, and they will therefore see more capital outflows, so that the net effect on capital flows may be uncertain. The study employs 2 sets of FDI data, both covering the period 1995-1997. The 1st set measures total FDI inflows and outflows to and from a sample of 144 developed and developing countries. The 2nd set uses United States Bureau of Economic Analysis data to measure the inflows of U.S. FDI to these same countries.
