Economics of Innovation and New Technology

Economics of Innovation and New Technology is devoted to the theoretical and empirical analysis of the determinants and effects of innovation, new technology and technological knowledge. The journal aims to provide a bridge between different strands of literature and different contributions of economic theory and empirical economics. This bridge is built in two ways. First, by encouraging empirical research (including case studies, econometric work and historical research), evaluating existing economic theory, and suggesting appropriate directions for future effort in theoretical work. Second, by exploring ways of applying and testing existing areas of theory to the economics of innovation and new technology, and ways of using theoretical insights to inform data collection and other empirical research.

创新与新技术经济学致力于对创新、新技术和技术知识的决定因素和影响进行理论和实证分析。该杂志旨在为不同的文学流派和不同的经济理论和经验经济学贡献之间架起一座桥梁。这座桥有两种建造方法。首先，通过鼓励实证研究(包括案例研究、计量经济学工作和历史研究)，评估现有的经济理论，并为未来的理论工作提出适当的方向。第二，探索将现有理论领域应用和测试到创新和新技术经济学中的方法，以及利用理论洞见为数据收集和其他实证研究提供信息的方法。
