Globalization and the new understanding of the properties of knowledge, with particular attention to the limits of its appropriability, exhaustibility, transferability, and its accumulation as a result of its recombinant generation, support the revival of the Schumpeterian intuition of innovation as a creative response and its blending with the Lamarckian legacy. Globalization spawns radical changes in product and factor markets that stir a response based on innovations that is actually creative and able to contribute to the increase of productivity when the access to and use of existing knowledge stocks takes place at below equilibrium costs. A three-equations recursive system for 14 European countries from 1990 to 2016 confirms that the level of openness to international trade promotes innovative efforts that, together with knowledge costs and capital intensity, improve labor productivity growth.

全球化和对知识属性的新理解，特别是对知识的可利用性、可耗尽性、可转移性及其重组产生的积累的限制，支持熊彼特将创新作为创造性反应的直觉的复兴，它与拉马克遗产的融合。全球化催生了产品和要素市场的根本性变化，当以低于均衡成本获取和使用现有知识储备时，这些创新激发了基于创新的响应，这些创新实际上具有创造性并且能够有助于提高生产力。1990 年至 2016 年 14 个欧洲国家的三方程递归系统证实，国际贸易的开放程度促进了创新努力，
