Overview
This project will address the necessary issues to achieve sustainable growth in Japan. Topics include the anatomy of innovations; measurement of the impacts of innovations on the markets; discussion of policy implications; and construction of a new measure for innovation. Our theoretical approach is based on econophysics, and our empirical research focuses on the Japanese economy. Our wide-ranged approach will provide deeper insights for sustainable growth in Japan and policy implications.
