Inter-firm complementarities in R&D: a re-examination of the relative performance of joint ventures (2001)
Journal Article
Anbarci, N., Lemke, R., & Roy, S. (2002). Inter-firm complementarities in R&D: a re-examination of the relative performance of joint ventures. International Journal of Industrial Organization, 20(2), 191-213. https://doi.org/10.1016/s0167-7187%2800%2900081-3

We compare duopoly outcomes between two alternative modes of research and development (R&D), viz. independent R&D and non-cooperative research joint ventures (RJVs), when there are complementarities between firm-specific R&D resources. When complemen... Read More about Inter-firm complementarities in R&D: a re-examination of the relative performance of joint ventures.

Economic development, institutional change, and the political economy of agricultural protection An econometric study of Belgium since the 19th century. (2001)
Journal Article
Swinnen, J., Banerjee, A., & de Gorter, H. (2001). Economic development, institutional change, and the political economy of agricultural protection An econometric study of Belgium since the 19th century. Agricultural Economics, 26(1), 25-43. https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1574-0862.2001.tb00052.x

This empirical study uses 100 years of annual data on 11 agricultural commodities from Belgium to measure the impact of structural changes coinciding with economic development and changes in political institutions on agricultural protection. The anal... Read More about Economic development, institutional change, and the political economy of agricultural protection An econometric study of Belgium since the 19th century..

Redistributive Tax and Growth in a Model with Discrete Occupational Choice (2001)
Journal Article
Bandyopadhyay, D., & Basu, P. (2001). Redistributive Tax and Growth in a Model with Discrete Occupational Choice. Australian Economic Papers, 40(2), 111-132. https://doi.org/10.1111/1467-8454.00116

An optimal redistributive tax-subsidy formula is derived for a growth model where income inequality is endogenously driven by an adult's choice of occupation between work and management. Investment in human capital is the engine of growth. The world'... Read More about Redistributive Tax and Growth in a Model with Discrete Occupational Choice.

Sensitivity of univariate AR(1) time-series forecasts near the unit root (2001)
Journal Article
Banerjee, A. (2001). Sensitivity of univariate AR(1) time-series forecasts near the unit root. Journal of Forecasting, 20(3), 203-229. https://doi.org/10.1002/1099-131x%28200104%2920%3A3%3C203%3A%3Aaid-for766%3E3.0.co%3B2-d

We consider the linear time-series model yt=dt+ut(t=1,...,n), where dt is the deterministic trend and ut the stochastic term which follows an AR(1) process; ut=ut-1+t, with normal innovations t. Various assumptions about the start-up will be made. Ou... Read More about Sensitivity of univariate AR(1) time-series forecasts near the unit root.

On the Irrelevance of Risk Attitudes in Repeated Two-Outcome Games. (2001)
Journal Article
Wooders, J., & Shachat, J. (2001). On the Irrelevance of Risk Attitudes in Repeated Two-Outcome Games. Games and Economic Behavior, 34(2), 342-363. https://doi.org/10.1006/game.2000.0808

We study equilibrium and maximin play in supergames consisting of the sequential play of a finite collection of stage games, where each stage game has two outcomes for each player. We show that for two-player supergames in which each stage game is st... Read More about On the Irrelevance of Risk Attitudes in Repeated Two-Outcome Games..

Regional variations in the competitiveness of unemployed job-seekers and the rate of outflows from unemployment (2001)
Journal Article
Robson, M. (2001). Regional variations in the competitiveness of unemployed job-seekers and the rate of outflows from unemployment. Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics, 63(1), 61-90. https://doi.org/10.1111/1468-0084.00209

The paper examines the role of variations in the competitiveness of unemployed jobseekers in leading to regional variations in the rate of outflows from unemployment, and attempts to identify the factors responsible for regional variations in the sha...
