Abstract

Endogenous growth models may exhibit either under-or over-investment in R&D. The possibility of over-investment is generally attributed to a business-stealing e¤ect that arises as the latest innovator destroys and/or appropriates previous incumbent's rents. We argue that this conventional wisdom is misleading. In standard models, business stealing by itself cannot result in excessive R&D. We explain the other e¤ects that must be at work here, thus contributing towards a better understanding of when and why the market may be biased towards excessive R&D.
