研究実績の概要 |
This research project studies how regional policy competition influences the geographic location patterns of industry and R&D.
The first stage of the project has completed a theoretical analysis of the effects of national union labor orientation and bargaining power on location patterns, economics growth, and national welfare. The results have been presented at a conference and submitted to a journal for review.
Work is progressing on the second stage of the project, with a theoretical framework that considers the implications of national R&D subsidy competition for innovation location patterns, economic growth, and national welfare. An intermediate set of results has been presented at an academic conference, and a complete set of results will soon be presented in a discussion paper.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
The project members will continue to revise the research results associated with the second stage of the project in preparation for the creation of a discussion paper and publication in a formal academic journal. In addition, project members will begin work on the third stage of the project, with the construction of a theoretical framework that allows for an analysis of how strategic tariff policy affects industry and innovation location patterns, economic growth, and national welfare.
