Abstract

The traditional analysis of innovation has focused on the Schumpeterian hypothesis of a positive link between market power and innovation. This often includes an implictly linear view of the innovation process, with R&D as a necessary first step. This paper widens the determinants of innovation beyond R&D, and questions the simplistic Schumpeterian approach.
