Chapter 3 in Determinants of Innovation, 1996, pp 63-98 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Schumpeter’s assessment of the role of innovative activity in economic development led him to original conjectures concerning the importance of market power and firm size in stimulating firms’ innovative activity. Empirical testing of these conjectures mainly relies on two interpretations of them, namely that innovative activity increases with market power, and more than proportionally with firm size.1
