Determinants of innovation in developing countries: a panel Generalized Method of Moments analysis

This study aims to examine empirically the determinants of innovation in developing countries by using 52 selected countries with data spanning from 2000 to 2010. Innovation, defined as a process that attempts to try out new or improved products and processes. In order to achieve this phase, past...
