We derive the optimal policy mix of Research and Development (R&D)‐subsidies and corporate tax rates towards a footloose R&D‐intensive firm. Increasing R&D‐subsidies strengthens the firm's incentive to offshore production. The firm's home gover

We construct a model of corporate tax competition in which governments also use public infrastructure investment to attract foreign direct investment, thus enhancing their tax bases. In doing so, we allow for cross-border infrastructural externalitie

This paper examines how trade liberalization affects innovation, profits and welfare in a model of reciprocal markets when firms pre-commit to research and development (R&D). We establish that the equilibrium is not always unique and show that, with

World Development. 29:711-724
We use a game-theoretic model to analyze the role of credibility, reputation and investment coordination in a developmental state. Our model focuses on why a “soft” state serving narrow social groups so often obtains in less-developed countries a
