In a first step, it proposes a simple theoretical model to describe the intertemporal choice of researchers facing successive opportunities of co-authoring papers. In a second part, the paper empirically assesses the properties of the model. The main empirical result is that the number and the productivity of a researcher's co-authors reflect the productivity of this researcher. This result is consistent with the assumption that co-authorship is motivated by a willingness to increase both the quality and the quantity of research output. As researchers with a lot of influent publications papers may create links with a large number of influential co-authors, co-authoring with highly productive academics appears as a signaling device of researchers’ quality.

Nous avons employe les tests de sigma-convergence et de beta-convergence polynomiale a la Chatterjii. D'apres nos resultats, le processus de (sigma) convergence n'est pas uniforme dans le temps. L'estimation de clubs de convergence a la Chatterjii permet d'affiner les resultats quant aux pays qui ont demarre un processus de rattrapage. Le niveau de revenu des pays du sud de l'Europe ne semble pas etre une cible vers laquelle convergeraient les pays de la region MENA a long terme.

Plus precisement, l'objectif de cette these est d'evaluer les liens theoriques et empiriques entre l'ouverture au commerce international et la croissance economique. L'idee d'un impact significatif de l'integration economique sur la croissance n'est pas nouvelle. Neanmoins, faute d'outils theoriques performants, permettant de relier les mecanismes de l'integration a la croissance ces travaux etudient exclusivement les gains statiques. L'instauration du marche unique de 1992, presente par ses defenseurs comme un moyen d'accroitre durablement la croissance europeenne, est a l'origine du regain d'interet concernant les effets dynamiques en termes de croissance de l'integration. L'avenement des nouvelles theories de la croissance au cours des annees quatre-vingt, permet d...

We get two main results. Firstly, the degree of openness of a country is the only variables that have a positive and robust effect on the TFP growth. Secondly, convergence is not an automatic phenomenon for all countries. The possibility of a convergence effect depends on the ability of countries to adopt foreign technology. The absorptive capacity depends on the stock of human capital and the degree of financial market development.

However, this definition is valid only if the convergence process between the two countries is already over. If we take into account the possibility of catch-up, then the poorest countries should obtain faster growth than developed countries. So income gaps should integrate decreasing deterministic trends. We formalize this intuition theoretically using a stochastic neoclassical growth model with heterogeneous technology. We then apply this model to per capita GDP catch-up of eight MENA countries towards the income level in Europe. We approximate the nonlinear deterministic trend by a linear function with breakpoints and apply the unit root test with two endogenous breakpoints.

More specifically, we test the existence of a potential relationship between the research efficiency of an individual and that of his co-authors using a novem database of French academics. The main empirical result is that the number and the quality of a researcher's co-authors reflect the productivity of this researcher.

More specifically, we test the existence of a potential relationship between the research efficiency of an individual and that of his co-authors (the so called assortative matching hypothesis) using a novel database of French academic scholars. However, individual research productivity should be an endogenous regressor as the quality of an academic's publication will depend somehow on the quality of his co-authors. We have applied the Two Stage Residual Inclusion (2SRI) approach in order to take into account this endogeneity bias. The main empirical result is that the number and the quality of a researcher's co-authors reflect the productivity of that researcher.There is also a significant gender effect: being a woman has no impact on the probability of never collaborating with other economists but it decreases both the quality and the quantity of co-authors. Finally, lifetime cycles are also an im...

The analysis employs the Two-Stage Residual Inclusion (2SRI) framework to handle endogeneity in individual productivity relative to the quality of co-authors. Data is taken from a novel database of French academic economists. The main finding is that the size and quality of authors' networks are positively related to their productivity; this is understood as evidence of assortative matching. Other effects on coauthor networks (life-cycles, specialities) are also identified.
