Links with Rebuilding Macroeconomic Theory Project: Link with New Economic Geography and the Fragmentation literatures; Link with Notions of Risk and Resilience; Link with Smart Specialization Strategy (S3) and Regional Development Policy; Development of a notion of Trade in Human Capital (TiHC) as a complement to TiVA; Link with Income Distribution and Agent Heterogeneity; Link with Natural Resources and Environment Constraints. |
