Abstract

In this paper, to investigate how an increase in the price of natural resources affects the level of technology, we develop an endogenous variety expansion model of a small open economy based on that of Grossman and Helpman (1991, Ch. 3). We conclude that an increase in the price of natural resources has a neutral effect on the level of technology in the long run.
