Income and Health Spending: Evidence from Oil Price Shocks (2013, positive): “In particular, even though innovations take place at the national or global level, the same mechanism leading to induced innovations at the national or global level should also lead to faster adoption of these technologies in areas with greater increases in demand (Acemoglu, 2002, 2007).”
Labor- and Capital-Augmenting Technical Change (2000, methodology): “This is the model used in Acemoglu (2002) for the case where the two factors are not accumulable, and more details on the solution can be found there.”
Capital Deepening and Nonbalanced Economic Growth (2008, positive): “Comparing these (derived) production functions to (1) and (2) highlights that in this economy, the production functions G1 and G2 from the previous section take Cobb-Douglas forms, with one sector always having a higher share of capital than the other sector, and also that A1 =M 1 ν−1 1 and A2 =M 1 ”
The impact of energy conservation on technology and economic growth (2003, background): “3 Our modelling of production and innovation partly follows Acemoglu (1998, 2001) and Kiley (1999), who develop a framework to analyse the forces that shape the direction of technical change towards particular factors of production.”
Measuring the Bias of Technological Change (2014, background): “There is also a market size or scale effect (Binswanger 1974b, Acemoglu 2002). Finally, there are the general equilibrium effects that Acemoglu (2003) and Acemoglu (2007) identifies.”
The Role of Foreign Technology and Indigenous Innovation in the Emerging Economies: Technological Change and Catching Up (2010, background): “1204 may not be appropriate to the economic and social conditions of developing countries (Acemoglu, 2002; Atkinson & Stiglitz, 1969; Basu & Weil, 1998).”
Human Capital and Development Accounting: New Evidence from Wage Gains at Migration (2018, background): “For example, Acemoglu (2002) and Caselli and Coleman (2006) both provide theories where technology responds endogenously to factor endowments, generating differences between the short run and long run elasticity of substitution.”
Skill Biased Heterogeneous Firms, Trade Liberalization, and the Skill Premium (2015, positive): “Some other models also predict that trade liberalization may increase the skill premium globally, including Feenstra and Hanson (1985), Acemoglu (2003), Zhu and Trefler (2005) and Burstein and Vogel (2012).”
Induced innovation in clean energy technologies from foreign environmental policy stringency? (2019, background): “Countries and firms that have innovated in certain technology areas in the past are thus expected to continue innovating down similar trajectories (Acemoglu, 2002).”
The Green Solow model (2010, positive): “For theoretical work on induced innovation see Acemoglu (2002), and more specifically Smulders and de Nooij (2003).”
How the West "invented" fertility restriction (2013, neutral): “19Only seven counties have surviving nominative rolls in 1377, and these contain little information.”
Environmental Policy and Innovation: A Decade of Research (2019, background): “Responding to criticisms that this early literature lacked micro-economic foundations, Acemoglu (2002) developed a model of directed technical change, which incorporates, among other things, the importance of market”
Connecting to Power: Political Connections, Innovation, and Firm Dynamics (2018, background): “…2001; Johnson and Mitton, 2003; Khwaja and Mian, 2005; Leuz and Oberholzer-Gee, 2006; Fan et al., 2007; Cingano and 4Some prominent examples of endogenous growth models without creative destruction are Romer (1990); Jones (1995); Acemoglu (2002); Lucas and Moll (2014); and Perla and Tonetti (2014).”
Demographics and Automation (2021, positive): “…works in the directed technical change literature, which focus on factor-augmenting technologies and the market size and product price effects (e.g. Acemoglu, 2002), our taskbased framework emphasizes the central role of the cost of labour (especially the wage in the production sector driven by…”
