1. Introduction 1. Motivation

Motivation

Innovation nurturers structural change in economies and societies,and both lead to (economic) development (Syrquin, 1988; Cimoli andDosi, 1995; Verspagen, 2004; Hidalgo et al., 2007).

Innovation is disruptive (Schumpeter, 1911), and may havedistributional consequences (Aghion et al., 2015; Lee, 2011;OECD, 2015)

Economic growth and structural change tend to reduce poverty(Ravallion and Chen, 2003), but the extent depends on how income isdistributed (Bourguignon, 2003)

The concept of inclusive innovation is loose, with limitedunderstanding of how to achieve it (Chataway et al., 2014; Cozzensand Sutz, 2014)

We know little about how inclusion influences innovation and SC

1. Introduction 3. Available evidence

Relatively established [ Plot ]

Innovation & Structural Change

[INN ⇒ SC] emergence of new sectors, increases in productivity and firm size,capital intensity, entrepreneurship, and changes in consumption patterns

[SC ⇒ INN ] SC requires introduction of new technologies (Dosi G, 1997; Ruttan,2002); Firms cope with the disequilibria generated by SC (Lundvall, 1992)

1. Introduction 3. Available evidence

Relatively ambiguous [ Plot , Plot ]

Innovation & Inclusion [INN ⇒ INC?]

Innovation generates winners and losers (Schumpeter, 1911; Helpman et al., 2010):

(i) income distribution (ii) “frugal innovation” (iii) grass-roots (Paunov, 2013)

Innovation may increase inequality but also mobility (Aghion et al., 2015)

Structural Change & Inclusion [SC ⇒ INC?]

Imbalances that accompany structural change – e.g.: capital accumulation, factorscomposition, substitution of domestic for foreign labour/knowledge, skills :– ↑ income inequality in the short run (Kuznets, 1973; Ravallion, 2004),– ↓ poverty (McMillan and Rodrik, 2011; UNU-WIDER, 2012)

1. Introduction 3. Available evidence

Pretty much unknown[INC ⇒ INN?] Does inclusion influence innovation in the long run?

Some degree of oligopoly is required for firms to have an incentive andresources to innovate (Arrow, 1962; Malerba and Orsenigo, 1997)

Background of inventors (Akcigit et al., 2017; Aghion et al., 2017)

[INC ⇒ SC?] Which forms of inclusion scale up to structural change?

E.g. access to goods and finance (frugal)

Grass-roots innovation?

3. Main results

Main findings (under construction)

Only left hand side of virtuous cycle: INC ⇒ SC and INN, but theother reinforcing mechanism does not work (INN, SC ; INC)

Nor INN nor SC have a strong significant effect on INC

INN leads to SC (employment) and SC (other) leads to INN

These relations are complex and depend on different aspects(indicators) of INN and INC

4. Empirical strategy 1. Indicators

Indicators

Main challenge

INN, SC, and INC, are multidimensional concepts

Measured (observed) variables highly correlated

Indicators

principal components to construct linear combinations Details

3-years rolling averages & all variables standardized

use first component to construct index scores

We loose significant detail, but we capture multiple dimensions of therelation between INN, SC, and INC.

4. Results 1. Main relations

Impulse response functions: SC(emp), INN, INC

All variables positively serially correlated

Strongest effect on Innovation comes from a shock in Inclusion

Inclusion also has a positive strong effect on Structural Change, after 3 years

Neither Innovation nor Structural Change have a significant effect onInclusion

No reinforcing mechanism between SC & INNI Innovation leads to Empl. SC (but only in the short period)I But Empl. SC does not lead to innovation

Variance decomposition [ Table ]

INC explains large part of INN and SC, but not the other way round

5. Discussion

How are INN, SC, and INC related over time?

The main nurturer of SC and INN is inclusion (so far) Results

Virtual cycle between SC and INN (depending on different SC)

But neither feed back on INC [ Scenarios , Figure ]

Source: based on Ciarli et al. (2018)

Unpacking indicators of INN and INC suggest these relations are complexand depend on different aspects of INN and INC

Saha, Ciarli Innovation, Structural Change, & Inclusion CONCORDi19, Seville 21 / 24

5. Discussion

Policy implicationsSo far

The only variable that seems to reinforce inclusion is inclusion

If INC has a positive effect on INN and SC (which reinforce eachother) there seem to be two clear policy implications

I Improve INC, beyond poverty and inequalityI Make INN and SC more inclusive (they do not seem to be so now):

Inclusive Structural Change

More nuanced policy implications

Unpack indices to provide a better understanding of which aspect ofINN, and INC are most relevant

Current/Future agenda:

Unpack indicators and variables

Micro-level comparisons (employer-employee)
