Determinants of Knowledge Flows and Their Effect on Innovation (2005, background): “…Savage, & Bloxham, 2001); other articles consider foreign direct investments as adequate proxies for knowledge flows.3 Finally, rather than consider flows, some papers have inferred R&D spillovers from cross-country or crossregion productivity correlations (Conley & Ligon, 2002; Keller, 2002b).”
