Immigration and Invention: Evidence from the Quota Acts
Immigration and Invention: Evidence from the Quota Acts Kirk Doran Chungeun Yoon University of Notre Dame January, 2020 Abstract Inventions often economize on labor, so economists have long posited that scarce labor should encourage invention (Hicks, 1932). But the production of new inventions can require a division of labor and economies of scale that require plentiful labor instead. We provide the first causal evidence of mass immigration's effect on invention, using variation induced by 1920s quotas, which ended history's largest international migration. Inventors in cities and industries exposed to fewer low-skilled immigrants applied for fewer patents. Industries with small establishment sizes attracted an ever- increasing share of invention. Labor scarcity affected both the rate and direction of inventive activity.

In a world of continuous mass immigration, it is possible to build a large factory in an empty and unattractive area and still attract a sufficient number of workers willing to do repetitive and low-skilled tasks for low pay. -

Then came the political economy, the knowledge economy, and the information economy. Now, it seems, we have the attention economy. The notion, which goes back to the 1990s, is that nowadays people compete for attention as much as for money or knowledge. According to the pundits, attention has become a currency: it has scarcity value and endless attraction. As with money, only the naïve or incapable (or the truly wise) can resist its lure. In the digital age, to be a winner in the attention economy requires constant tweeting, blogging, and updating one’s status on Facebook; a hugely time-consuming business. -
Financial Institutions and the British Industrial Revolution: Did Financial Underdevelopment Hold Back Growth?
Financial institutions and the British Industrial Revolution: Did financial underdevelopment hold back growth? Geoffrey M. Hodgson Loughborough University London 18 January 2021 For Journal of Institutional Economics Burnlea, Dunsford, Devon EX6 7JP, UK www.geoffreymhodgson.uk [email protected] KEY WORDS: financial institutions, Industrial Revolution, property rights, finance capital, capital goods JEL classifications: N20, N23, N63, N73, N83, O16, O43, O52, P10 ABSTRACT This scoping article addresses the role of financial institutions in empowering the British Industrial Revolution. Prominent economic historians have argued that investment was largely funded out of savings or profits, or by borrowing from family or friends: hence financial institutions played a minor role. But this claim sits uneasily with later evidence from other countries that effective financial institutions have mattered a great deal for economic development. How can this mismatch be explained? Despite numerous technological innovations, from 1760 to 1820 industrial growth was surprisingly low. Could the underdevelopment of financial institutions have held back growth? There is relatively little data to help evaluate this hypothesis. More research is required on the historical development of institutions that enabled finance to be raised. This would include the use of property as collateral. This article sketches the evolution of British financial institutions before 1820 and makes suggestions for further empirical research. Work in this direction should enhance our understanding of the British Industrial Revolution and of the preconditions of economic development in other countries. 1. Introduction: the conventional wisdom Financial institutions include lending intermediaries, banks, financial markets, and the legal, customary and state foundations of finance.1 Conventional wisdom has it that entrepreneurs could draw on their savings or borrow from family and friends if needed. -

See page 38 for article on Military Operations in Cities. iii Foreword This issue of the Review includes events and activities that took place during the first half of 2003 (January to July). The normal programme of Academy business has continued with lectures, conferences, publications, international co-operation, and the awarding of grants to support individual scholars.The diversity of intellectual activity sponsored by the Academy is illustrated by reports and articles in this issue. Over the last 10 years, the Academy has contributed towards the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, an immense collaborative project to replace and extend the original Victorian endeavour.The collection of articles has been completed, and in the Spring the Academy hosted an event to introduce the on-line version which will be published with the print edition in 2004. On pages 13–15 the editor of the Dictionary,Professor Brian Harrison, compares and contrasts the modern experience with that of his predecessors. Besides contributing to such major works of fundamental scholarship, the Academy is proud of the part it plays in fostering the careers of outstanding young researchers. Through its flagship Postdoctoral Fellowships scheme, it offers 30 or more scholars annually the opportunity to spend three years pursuing independent research projects, and developing skills and experience in teaching and administration in the university environment.This year’s competition was completed in July and the successful candidates are announced in this issue, together with a short description of the research they will be undertaking. -

At Jesus you have the opportunity to increase knowledge and enrich your pupils’ education, whereas all my colleagues seem to talk about nowadays is money. Students are increasingly just seen as a source of fees, research is relegated in favour of research funding, and everyone worries about the next round of job cuts.’ Her comments made me ponder the word ‘appreciate’, whose different connotations don’t relate obviously to one another.
