BUILDING A KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY INDEX FOR SOUTHERN METROPOLITAN AREAS A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts Economics By Kristine F. Koutout December 2008 Accepted by: Dr. Michael T. Maloney, Committee Chair Dr. Bruce Yandle Dr. Raymond Sauer ABSTRACT The purpose of this thesis is to determine if the methodology used to build the South Carolina Research Authority Knowledge Economy Index (KEI) for states can be replicated and applied to Southern Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs). Data to imitate the KEI measures for workforce education and fast growth firms were available at the MSA-level; however, academic R&D was used as a proxy for industrial R&D in this index because data was not available for MSAs. An index for Southern MSAs was built based on the coefficients from the OLS results. Workforce education was the most important factor for increasing mean per capita income. The fast growth firms variable was not significant in the regression. Academic R&D had a negative coefficient, the opposite sign of industrial R&D in the KEI. The residual analysis and the high rankings of university cities revealed this type of MSA to be critical to the index. Further analysis was performed on the education variable to determine the source of the high coefficient in the OLS results. Finally, this index was compared to other relevant indices. The thesis offers research-based suggestions for improving MSA-based Knowledge Economy indices. Other research is also recommended that focuses on university cities and the relationship between MSAs and the states in which they are located. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to express my appreciation to the South Carolina Research Authority for providing financial support for this research. In addition, I would like to thank Dr. Bruce Yandle for his invaluable guidance throughout the project. I would also like to express my gratitude to Dr. Michael Maloney, who was instrumental in the completion of this thesis. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS Page TITLE PAGE....................................................................................................................i ABSTRACT.....................................................................................................................ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS............................................................................................iii LIST OF TABLES...........................................................................................................v CHAPTER 1.

The effects of this evolution in the economy are comparable to the changes in society caused by the introduction of steam power at the beginning of the Industrial Revolution and the widespread usage of the assembly line in the 1920s. Every aspect of life has been affected by the accelerating rate of technological change, but it is the recognition of knowledge as not just a tool, but as a primary product, that has revolutionized the economy. Economists are interested in the Knowledge Economy for a number of reasons, one of which is the effects on individual welfare. Figure 1, from a presentation by Bruce Yandle (2008), plots U.S. state per capita income to the share of state population, 25 years and older, with a bachelor’s degree. This mapping illustrates the strength of the relationship between education and per capita GDP. 1 U.S. State Bachelor's Degrees & Per Capita GDP, 2006 45.0 40.0 35.0 s e e r 30.0 g . e d h t i 25.0 w 5 2 e v o 20.0 b a f o e r 15.0 a h S 10.0 5.0 0.0 0 10000 20000 30000 40000 50000 60000 70000 Per Capita GDP Policymakers are interested in improving per capita GDP, one measure of individual welfare. According to the figure, there are two ways to move right towards increased GDP. One, legislators can work towards increasing education on the y-axis, which will shift their state to the right. Two, policymakers could attempt to move to the right along the x-axis by supporting initiatives that reduce transaction costs thereby improving the use of knowledge in society. Regardless, the correlation between knowledge and welfare reveals a significant and positive relationship. The strength of the relationship enforces the dominant role of education in the Knowledge Economy. 2 The role of knowledge in the economy has long been recognized. John Stuart Mill proposes human capital as a factor that contributes to the growth of the economy in his (1848) The Principles of Political Economy. The production of wealth; the extraction of the instruments of human subsistence

  • A NEW VISION of the KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY Brian Chi-Ang Lin National Chengchi University
    A NEW VISION OF THE KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY Brian Chi-ang Lin National Chengchi University Abstract. To date, more than half of the output in the major OECD countries has been knowledge based. This paper argues, however, that the current growth- oriented exposition of the knowledge economy rooted in the conventional concept of free competition is insufficient for promoting the long-term development of human societies. Although we now live in a knowledge economy, most countries have been concurrently characterized by serious phenomena such as environmental degradation and growing economic inequality. The prospect of meeting global commitments, for instance, to reducing inequality, as outlined in the 1995 World Summit for Social Development in Copenhagen and endorsed in the United Nations Millennium Declaration, is bleak and the global society as a whole has become less and less sustainable. Indeed, the world is better seen as composed of numerous (but finite) knowledge economies. To take up the challenge of sustainable development of human societies, we have to develop a pluralistic perspective of the knowledge economy and fully acknowledge the characteristics of each unique knowledge system (such as indigenous knowledge possessed by a small tribe). Once we can help each individual knowledge system develop into a specific set of economic institutions that freely exchange concepts and beliefs with each other in a global environment, we will be able to develop a global economy that embodies a value-committed basis that assures a sustainable path of development on earth. Keywords. Economic inequality; Growth; Indigenous knowledge; Sustainable development; The knowledge economy There are changes in other spheres too which we must expect to come.

  • Chapter 1 the Demand for Economic Statistics
    Chapter 1 The Demand for Economic Statistics The media publish economic data on a daily basis. But who decides which statistics are useful and which are not? Why is housework not included in the national income, and why are financial data available in real time, while to know the number of people in employment analysts have to wait for weeks? Contrary to popular belief, both the availability and the nature of economic statistics are closely linked to developments in economic theory, the requirements of political decision-makers, and each country’s way of looking at itself. In practice, statistics are based on theoretical and interpretative reference models, and if these change, so does the picture the statistics paint of the economic system. Thus, the data we have today represent the supply and demand sides of statistical information constantly attempting to catch up with each other, with both sides being strongly influenced by the changes taking place in society and political life. This chapter offers a descriptive summary of how the demand for economic statistics has evolved from the end of the Second World War to the present, characterised by the new challenges brought about by globalisation and the rise of the services sector. 1 THE DEMAND FOR ECONOMIC STATISTICS One of the major functions of economic statistics is to develop concepts, definitions, classifications and methods that can be used to produce statistical information that describes the state of and movements in economic phenomena, both in time and space. This information is then used to analyse the behaviour of economic operators, forecast likely movements of the economy as a whole, make economic policy and business decisions, weigh the pros and cons of alternative investments, etc.

  • Intensive Industries and Distributed Knowledge Bases.1
    What is the ‘knowledge economy’? Knowledge- intensive industries and distributed knowledge bases.1 Keith Smith STEP Group Oslo Norway May 2000 Prepared as part of the project “Innovation Policy in a Knowledge-Based Economy” commissioned by the European Commission 1 I would like to thank Daniele Archibugi, Robin Cowan, Paul David, Dominique Foray, Gert van de Paal, Luc Soete and members of the European Commission for comments on an earlier draft of this paper. Introduction: technology and competence Public policies for science, technology and innovation have always been aimed primarily at creating and diffusing knowledge. In recent years such policies have attracted increasing attention as a result of claims that knowledge-intensive industries are now at the core of growth, and that we are now entering a new type of knowledge-driven economy or even a completely new form of ‘knowledge society’. What does it mean to speak of a ‘knowledge-intensive’ industry or a ‘knowledge- based’ economy, however? These terms are often used in a superficial and uncritical way, and there is a real need to consider whether they are anything more than slogans. The objectives of this paper are firstly to assess some of the issues involved in the concept of a knowledge economy or learning economy, and to criticise the idea that the knowledge economy should be identified with high-technology industries (as conventionally defined). Against this background I describe some empirical dimensions of knowledge creation in Europe, and then turn to concepts and a methodology for mapping the knowledge base of an economic activity. The paper proposes the concept of a ‘distributed knowledge base’ for industries, and argues that the term ‘knowledge economy’ is only meaningful if we see it in terms of widely- spread knowledge intensity across economic activities, including so-called ‘low technology’ sectors.

  • Compromising the Knowledge Economy Authoritarian Challenges to Independent Intellectual Inquiry
    May 2020 SHARP POWER AND DEMOCRATIC RESILIENCE SERIES Compromising the Knowledge Economy Authoritarian Challenges to Independent Intellectual Inquiry by Glenn Tiffert ABOUT THE SHARP POWER AND DEMOCRATIC RESILIENCE SERIES As globalization deepens integration between democracies and autocracies, the compromising effects of sharp power—which impairs free expression, neutralizes independent institutions, and distorts the political environment—have grown apparent across crucial sectors of open societies. The Sharp Power and Democratic Resilience series is an effort to systematically analyze the ways in which leading authoritarian regimes seek to manipulate the political landscape and censor independent expression within democratic settings, and to highlight potential civil society responses. This initiative examines emerging issues in four crucial arenas relating to the integrity and vibrancy of democratic systems: • Challenges to free expression and the integrity of the media and information space • Threats to intellectual inquiry • Contestation over the principles that govern technology • Leverage of state-driven capital for political and often corrosive purposes ABOUT THE AUTHOR The present era of authoritarian resurgence is taking place during Glenn Tiffert is a visiting fellow at the Hoover Institution, a protracted global democratic downturn that has degraded and a historian of modern China.

Over the past several decades, the theme of knowledge economy (KE) has become increasingly important, being seen as a source of economic growth and competitiveness in all economic sectors. As a consequence of this development, the author provides evidence that scholars and commentators have pleaded in favor of using modern resources which enrich knowledge-based-economies, such as investments in IT&C, high-technology industries, and highly skilled workers. These factors are perceived as fundamental factors of KE, as the present research will state. The drivers of KE are indeed technologies with the help of knowledge and the production of information, all these conditioned by dissemination. The hereby article opens with a compare and contrast analysis of the traditional economy versus the knowledge economy. Also, the article defines the KE, focusing on the debate existing on the subject of its key characteristics and components (dimensions) according to international forums, scholars, and practitioners. At the same time, the author provides information on the drivers of KE, by thoroughly reviewing the academic literature in this field.
