摘要

本文利用1791年至1844年期间法国授予的所有专利数据集，研究了工业化早期英国向法国的技术转移模式。利用法国立法的特殊性，我们构建了一系列专利质量指标，并研究了它们的决定因素。我们发现，英国发明人或与英国发明人有个人关系的法国发明人申请的专利质量相对较高。总体而言，我们的研究结果表明，法国的创新体系能够吸引并有效吸收英国的关键技术。

British-French Technology Transfer from the Revolution to Louis Philippe (1791–1844): Evidence from Patent Data

This paper examines the patterns of technology transfer from Britain to France during the early phases of industrializing using a dataset comprising all patents granted in France in the period 1791–1844. Exploiting the peculiarities of French legislation, we construct an array of patent quality indicators and investigate their determinants. We find that patents filed by British inventors or French inventors with personal connections to British inventors were of relatively higher quality. Overall, our results show that the French innovation system was capable of attracting and effectively absorbing key technologies from Britain.

Topics covered include money and banking, trade, manufacturing, technology, transportation, industrial organisation, labour, agriculture, servitude, demography, education, economic growth, and the role of government and regulation.
