This paper investigates the effect of product market regulations on the international diffusion of productivity shocks. The empirical results indicate that restrictive product market regulations slow the process of adjustment through which best practice production techniques diffuse across borders and new technologies are incorporated into the production process. This suggest that remaining cross-country differences in product market regulation can partially explain the recent observed divergence of productivity in OECD countries, given the emergence of new general-purpose technologies over the 1990s. The paper also investigates two channels through which product market regulations might affect the international diffusion of productivity shocks, namely the adoption of information and communications technology and the location decisions of multi-national enterprises. In both cases the effect of anti-competitive product market regulation is found to be negative and significant.

Cet ouvrage, où sont exposés les principaux théorèmes et définitions sur le calcul différentiel, s'adresse principalement aux étudiants en licence de mathématiques. Il aborde de manière détaillée les thèmes suivants : le théorème de la moyenne et de ses conséquences, les diverses formules de Taylor, l'étude des extrema simples et liés (multiplicateurs de Lagrange), les théorèmes d'inversion locale, des fonctions implicites et du rang constant. Le dernier chapitre est consacré aux théorèmes classiques d'existence des solutions d'équations différentielles, ainsi qu'à une introduction aux flots des champs de vecteurs. Les étudiants en maîtrise, CAPES et agrégation de mathématiques seront intéressés par le chapitre sur les sous-variétés de Rn. Elles font l'objet d'un traitement autonome dans lequel est abordée la géométrie des surfaces, notamment l'étude de leur courbure. Le cours est complété par une série d'exemples et d'exercices (79) tous corrigés, et de problèmes, tirés de sujets d'examens, dont certains sont résolus.
