This book was released on 2006 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette thèse fait l'objet de quatre chapitres. Dans le premier, nous formalisons l'idée de l'existence d'une interdépendance entre la connaissance et le capital humain. Dans le deuxième, nous apportons des éclaircissements sur le calcul de la valeur sociale d'une innovation, l'identification des distorsions qui empêchent l'équilibre décentralisé d'être optimal, enfin, sur les facteurs qui induisent des investissements insuffisants dans le secteur de la recherche. Dans le chapitre 3, nous discutons de l'évolution des technologies de l'information et de la communication et de celle du droit de la propriété intellectuelle qui l'a suivie. Nous expliquons la nature de l'évolution de la pratique juridique, en mettant l'accent sur l'influence des évolutions technologiques ; puis, nous présentons un cadre d'analyse économique permettant de tenir compte de ces observations. Enfin, dans le chapitre 4, nous étudions les choix de fécondité des individus dans une économie où le progrès technologique est endogène. Dans notre analyse, le niveau de la croissance par tête peut être positivement, négativement ou non corrélé avec la part des ressources allouées au secteur de la recherche.

This book was released on 2014-12-01 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Comment le capital humain constitue-t-il, d'une part, une motivation individuelle dans le cadre de la théorie de l'école classique, mais aussi un facteur de croissance économique du point de vue de l'approche keynésienne ? L'itinéraire de la problématique amène à justifier les causes de l'imperfection des marchés et le rôle de l'Etat pour corriger ces imperfections et les effets d'hystérésis.
Download or read book Financement de la recherche scientifique et croissance endog ne written by Benoît Masquin and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dans un premier temps, la thèse étudie deux grandes difficultés du financement de la recherche scientifique. La première concerne la modalité du financement et la seconde, son montant en économie ouverte. Afin d'étudier ces questions, nous avons développé une extension du modèle de croissance endogène de Romer (1990) incorporant un secteur de recherche scientifique. Au travers de cette extension, nous avons montré que le financement de la science par une taxe ad-valorem pénalise la croissance. Cependant, ce coût peut être réduit si des politiques complémentaires sont mises en place. Elles portent sur la formation des chercheurs, la concurrence dans le secteur de l'innovation et le choix d'une fiscalité plus ciblée. Concernant l'investissement à réaliser en recherche scientifique, nous montrons qu'il va dépendre des choix réalisés par les autres pays en économie ouverte ; ce qui implique un risque d'opportunisme. Nous observons qu'un pays disposant de plus de ressources en travail qualifié investira relativement plus qu'un pays moins doté. Cependant, l'existence de ces différences dans le financement est, dans la majeure partie des cas, bénéfique pour tous. Dans un second temps, la thèse étudie les conditions d'une adoption profitable des nouvelles technologies par les pays en voie de développement. Nous montrons qu'en présence d'obstacles à l'adoption des technologies, il n'est pas optimal de chercher à développer la productivité totale des facteurs. Le développement des nouvelles technologies n'intervient que dans un second temps quand le pays est suffisamment développé. Nous montrons ainsi qu'une économie peut être dans une trappe à pauvreté et qu'un investissement trop important en capital humain peut conduire à un gaspillage.

The Society is supported by a large number of central banks, commercial banks and other financial and business institutions, by treasury officials and by academics and others interested in monetary and financial problems. Since its establishment in 1963 it has developed as a forum for the exchange of informa tion, research results and ideas, valued by academics and practitioners in these fields, including central bank officials and civil servants responsible for formulat ing and applying monetary and financial policies. A major activity of SUERF is to organize and conduct Colloquia on sub jects of topical interest to members. The titles, places and dates of previous Col loquia for which volumes of the collected Papers were published are noted on the last page of this volume.

Download or read book Women and Trade written by World Bank;World Trade Organization and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2020-09-04 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Trade can dramatically improve women’s lives, creating new jobs, enhancing consumer choices, and increasing women’s bargaining power in society. It can also lead to job losses and a concentration of work in low-skilled employment. Given the complexity and specificity of the relationship between trade and gender, it is essential to assess the potential impact of trade policy on both women and men and to develop appropriate, evidence-based policies to ensure that trade helps to enhance opportunities for all. Research on gender equality and trade has been constrained by limited data and a lack of understanding of the connections among the economic roles that women play as workers, consumers, and decision makers. Building on new analyses and new sex-disaggregated data, Women and Trade: The Role of Trade in Promoting Gender Equality aims to advance the understanding of the relationship between trade and gender equality and to identify a series of opportunities through which trade can improve the lives of women.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grossman and Helpman develop a unique approach in which innovation is viewed as a deliberate outgrowth of investments in industrial research by forward-looking, profit-seeking agents. Traditional growth theory emphasizes the incentives for capital accumulation rather than technological progress. Innovation is treated as an exogenous process or a by-product of investment in machinery and equipment. Grossman and Helpman develop a unique approach in which innovation is viewed as a deliberate outgrowth of investments in industrial research by forward-looking, profit-seeking agents.

Download or read book Is Inequality Harmful for Growth written by Torsten Persson and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is inequality harmful for growth? We suggest that it is. To summarize our main argument: in a society where distributional conflict is more important, political decisions are more likely to produce economic policies that allow private individuals to appropriate less of the returns to growth promoting activities, such as accumulation of capital and productive knowledge. In the paper we first formulate a theoretical model that formally captures this idea. The model has a politico-economic equilibrium, which determines a sequence of growth rates depending on structural parameters, political institutions, and initial conditions. We then confront the testable empirical implications with two sets of data. A first data set pools historical evidence-which goes back to the mid 19th century-from the US and eight European countries. A second data set contains post-war evidence from a broad cross-section of developed and less developed countries. In both samples we find a statistically significant and quantitatively important negative relation between inequality and growth. After a comprehensive sensitivity analysis, we conclude that our findings are not distorted by measurement error, reverse causation, hetroskedasticity, or other econometric problems.
