For economic historians, the papers on path dependence assembled in this book, and particularly the conceptual paper by Antonelli, should be essential reading. Nikolaus Wolf, Economic History Review Recent research on the economics of innovation has acknowledged the importance of path dependence and networks in the evolution of economies and the diffusion of new techniques, products, and processes. These are topics pioneered by Paul A. David, one of the world s leading scholars in the economics of innovation. This outstanding collection provides a fitting tribute to the diversity and depth of Paul David s contributions. The papers included range from simulation models of the evolution of market structure in the presence of innovation, through historical investigations of knowledge networks and empirical analysis of contemporary networks, to the analysis of the diffusion of innovations using simulation and analytic models and of the diffusion of knowledge using patent data. With an emphasis on simulation models, data analysis, and historical evidence, this book will be required reading for researchers in innovation economics and regional development as well as economists, sociologists, and historians of innovation and intellectual property.

The third part explores the role of innovation for growth and development, while section four is concerned with the national innovation system and the role of (innovation) policy in influencing its dynamics and responding to the important challenges facing contemporary societies.

Book Synopsis Technology, Innovation and Industrial Economics: Institutionalist Perspectives by : Dilmus D. James
Download or read book Technology, Innovation and Industrial Economics: Institutionalist Perspectives written by Dilmus D. James and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology, Innovation and Industrial Economics: Institutional Perspectives, inspired by the work of William E. Cole, Professor Emeritus at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville, extends his work with essays on technology, innovation and industrial economics from an Institutionalist perspective. The managerial style, innovational practices and industrial setting of the continuous improvement firm are central to several chapters. This volume also features innovation and technology in Latin America, Adam Smith's writing on entrepreneurship and a comparison of American and European Institutionalism. The topics of technology, innovation, industrial organization and industrial policy are being widely discussed and debated in today's literature, but seldom from an Institutionalist perspective. The purpose of this book is to reduce substantially this missing dimension in the ongoing debates on these important issues.

Book Synopsis R & D, Innovation and Industrial Structure by : Boris Maurer
Download or read book R & D, Innovation and Industrial Structure written by Boris Maurer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The common topic of this collection of studies is the interaction between innova tive activity of firms and industrial structure. I call this interaction technological competition. Firms invest into R&D in order to open up new or enlarge existing profit opportuni ties for the future. A successful R&D-project leads to an innovation. An innovation introduced into the market changes the competitive structure of the industry. At the same time the structure of the industry shapes the incentives to invest into R&D. What matters for these incentives is not so much the existing structure but the expected dynamic evolution of that industry which is again dependent on the innovative choice of firms. Amongst other things, the dynamic of industry evolution is therefore rooted in the dynamics of ongoing innovative activity. Of course, this is not always the whole sto ry. There are (more or less) exogenous factors, like knowledge spillovers from other sectors of the economy, technological breakthroughs in basic research that directly influence the state of competition in an industry by providing additional profit op portunities, etc. The same is true for exogenous changes in upstream markets or demand conditions. My main interest here is not primarily to understand these exogenous forces, but to develop a theory of how the process of firms' innovative activity is shaped by competition and in turn shapes future competition between firms in an industry.

Book Synopsis Three Essays on the Economics of Innovation by : Harun Bulut
Download or read book Three Essays on the Economics of Innovation written by Harun Bulut and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have identified three specific problems in the economics of innovation and addressed each of them in separate essays in this thesis. Essay 1 revisits the problem of inefficient diversification efforts of firms in a R & D race setting (Dasgupta and Maskin, 1987)1 by taking into account the fact that firms have the option of trade secrecy in addition to patents in protecting their inventions. This essay is theoretical in nature as we use a game-theoretic modeling of firms' project and IP choices in a R & D race. We find that the availability of multiple IPR protection instruments can move the paths chosen by firms engaged in a R & D race towards the social optimum. Essay 2 refers to the adoption and diffusion stages of the innovation process as we look at the economic effects of the introduction of Genetically Modified (GM) food in the European Union (EU) agricultural and food system. We develop a partial equilibrium modeling of European agro food sector and calibrate the model's parameters by using the EU data in year 2000. We find that the introduction of GM food is reducing overall welfare but the producers of quality-enhanced products become better off, a result that is robust to variations in the values of critical parameters. Essay 3 empirically studies a basic, yet somewhat unexplored, question of whether U.S. universities in expectation, are earning economic rent (profit) from licensing activities. The data include 148 observations from U.S. universities over the five years time period 1998 to 2002 and are mostly from AUTM (Association of the University Technology Managers) surveys and various other sources. Based on a structural econometric model of licensing rents of U.S. universities, we obtain the "marginal rate of return" from research dollars as nearly 1 % and identify the key determinants of license rent generation as the quality of faculty (which is measured by the citations received in technology departments), together with the size of the university in terms of total research expenditures.

Book Synopsis Essays on the Economics of Innovation by : David Colino Llamas
Download or read book Essays on the Economics of Innovation written by David Colino Llamas and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis consists of three chapters. In the first chapter, I estimate the dynamic or inter-temporal knowledge spillovers resulting from corporate R&D in a setting with cumulative innovation, using a panel of US firms and a network of corporate patent citations. I show that the positive effect of dynamic spillovers on other firms' productivity is economically important, and at least as large as that of own R&D investments. Accounting for both static and dynamic spillovers, my estimates suggest that the social returns to corporate R&D are about three times as large as the private returns. The second chapter, joint with Jean-Noel Barrot, studies the effect of patent term duration on the rate and direction of follow-on innovation, using a quasi-natural experiment that lengthened the term of existing patents in the US. Leveraging a kink in the patent term extension formula, we find no significant impact of extensions on subsequent innovation, neither locally around the kink using a sharp "Regression Kink Design" nor on average on the population of treated patents. The third chapter, joint with Nicolas Caramp and Pascual Restrepo, studies how consumer durables amplify business cycle fluctuations on aggregate employment. We show that employment in durable manufacturing industries is more cyclical than in other industries, and that this cyclicality is amplified in genera.I equilibrium. Our estimates suggest that consumer durables are responsible for up to 40% of aggregate employment volatility.
