Do spillovers matter when estimating private returns to R&D? (2013)
Journal Article
Eberhardt, M., Helmers, C., & Strauss, H. (2013). Do spillovers matter when estimating private returns to R&D?. Review of Economics and Statistics, 95(2), 436-448. https://doi.org/10.1162/REST_a_00272

A large body of literature estimates private returns to R&D adopting the Griliches knowledge production framework, which ignores the potential impact of spillovers on consistent estimation. Using a panel of twelve manufacturing industries across ten... Read More about Do spillovers matter when estimating private returns to R&D?.

Structural change and cross-country growth empirics (2012)
Journal Article
Eberhardt, M., & Teal, F. (2013). Structural change and cross-country growth empirics. World Bank Economic Review, 27(2), 229-271. https://doi.org/10.1093/wber/lhs020

One of the most striking features of economic growth is the process of structural change whereby the share of agriculture in GDP decreases as countries develop. The cross-country growth literature typically estimates an aggregate homogeneous producti... Read More about Structural change and cross-country growth empirics.
