“…Depending on the governance proxy used, a one-unit increase in government effectiveness is associated with between 62 per cent and 96.4 per cent increase in power R&D intensity (Table 7.2) and between 6.5 per cent and 31.3 per cent increase in patent intensity (Table 7.3). This suggests that stronger economic institutions promote innovation and are in line with the existing literature (Ayal and Karras 1996;Habiyaremye and Raymond 2013;Tebaldi and Elmslie 2013;Silve and Plekhanov 2015). The marginal effect of governance might appear substantial given the coefficient interpretation provided in the paragraph above.…”

“…11 However, poor governance can also lead to more foreign investments if combined with high levels of corruption (Bellos and Subasat 2012). The literature on general innovation states that better institutions are likely to promote general innovation and investments (Habiyaremye and Raymond 2013;Tebaldi and Elmslie 2013;Silve and Plekhanov 2015). We test whether government effectiveness and more broadly good governance as measured by the World Governance Indicators (WGI) (Kaufman, Kraay, and Mastruzzi 2010) 12 affect energy-related innovation.…”

ForewordSustainable energy transitions involve the shift of resources between competing industrial sectors and political constituencies. Stakeholders in this process have varying degrees of political and economic power, and understanding how political economic factors influence clean energy transitions is crucial to effective policy formulation and facilitating transitions to sustainable energy systems. In partnership with the Joint Institute for Strategic Energy Analysis (JISEA), UNU-WIDER gathered together a substantial group of experts from around the world-from both developed and developing countries-to launch a multidisciplinary research project seeking to contribute to our enhanced understanding of these factors. The project sought to facilitate an energy transition that will generate very large environmental and economic benefits, particularly over the long run. The beneficiaries of clean energy transitions are highly diffuse and include future generations not yet born. This book is the distilled essence of the cross-cutting academic project. I express my sincere and professional appreciation to the large group of expert authors for their dedication to the project, and to my fellow editors in helping bring together the book for readers to enjoy and absorb along with the findings and policy implications.

“…Furthermore, empirical analysis shows that institutional differences affect the extent of R&D spillovers; for example, countries where the ease of doing business, the quality of the tertiary education system and the level of patent protection are relatively high benefit more from R&D efforts and international R&D spillovers (Coe, Helpman and Hoffmaister, 2009;Tebaldi and Elmslie, 2013). A related field of research underlines the influence of intangible assets and specific institutional characteristics on innovation capacity at the regional level (Crescenzi and Rodríguez -Pose, 2011;d'Agostino and Scarlato, 2011;Dettori, Marrocu and Paci, 2011;Rodríguez -Pose, 1999;Rodríguez-Pose and Crescenzi, 2008;Sterlacchini, 2008).…”

This paper investigates the theoretical and empirical foundations of the links between inclusive institutions, innovation and economic growth. Its first contribution to the literature is to provide a non-scale R&D-based growth model incorporating negative externalities linked to low institutional quality that not only affect the productivity of private and human capital, but also constrain the diffusion of existing technological knowledge. In turn, these negative externalities reduce economic growth. The second contribution of this paper is to run estimates for a sample of European Union countries. Empirical analysis based on pooled long-and short-run estimates confirms the importance of private capital and technology as instruments to increase economic growth in European countries and suggests the existence of a positive relationship between inclusive institutions, innovation and economic growth. The estimates also show that market failures linked to the degree of market competition and to the level of network interaction in the economic system significantly condition the influence of formal institutions on private capital, technology and GDP growth.JEL classification: O30, O41, O43

“…The knowledge society and innovation economy are based on the following postulates: 1) Stimulating the development of the environment and institutional regime, as well as a legal institution that provides the efficient creation, dissemination and application of existing and newly created knowledge (Anderlini, Felli, Immordino, & Riboni, 2013;Tebaldi & Elmslie, 2013);…”

The purpose of this paper is to explore the impact of innovativeness factors in the European Union (EU) member states on the level of their national economy competitiveness (global competitiveness of each country in the EU). The aim of the research is to identify the vital factors of innovativeness, innovative activity and innovation capital in the EU Uticaj faktora inovativnosti na konkurentnost zemalja EU Apstrakt: Cilj ovog rada je da istraži uticaj faktora inovativnosti u zemljama članicama Evropske unije (EU) na nivo konkurentnosti njihove nacionalne ekonomije (globalne konkurentnosti svake zemlje pojedinačno u EU). Cilj istraživanja je da se identifikuju vitalni faktori inovativnosti, inovativne aktivnosti i inovacionog kapitala u zemljama članicama EU. Istraživanje je realizovano primenom metoda korelacione, regresione i klaster analize. Rezultati istraživanja ukazuju na postojanje razlika u stepenu inovativnosti
