Innovation and its Effects on Employment Composition: Microeconomic Evidence from Colombian Firms

This study analyses the effects of innovation on employment in Colombian firms for the manufacturing and service sectors in two different periods: 2007-2010 for the manufacturing industry, and 2010-2011 for the service industry. Based on the theoretical framework proposed by Harrison et al.(2014), w...
