Innovation Policy and the Economy : Volume 5, Paperback / softback Book

Paperback / softback

Description

The economic importance of innovation brings with it an active debate on the impact public policy has on the innovation process.

This annual series, sponsored by the National Bureau of Economic Research, brings the work of leading academic researchers to the broader policy community.

This volume considers such topics as the implications of software outsourcing for American technology leadership; the complementary roles of large corporations and entrepreneurs in developing innovative technology; city-level policy and planning that establishes a "jurisdictional advantage" in the value of local resources; the effect of taxes on entrepreneurship; and how to incorporate innovation into the analysis of business mergers.

These papers highlight the role economic theory and empirical analysis can play in evaluating policies and programs regarding research, innovation, and the commercialization of new technologies.
