内容摘要:This paper examines how the trade war affected the intensity and direction of innovation in China. Using textual analysis of patent abstracts, we compare innovation directions between Chinese and US firms based on term similarity. We find that higher exposure to US import tariffs decreases similarity—especially with recent US patents—and lowers Chinese patent filings. A quantitative model in which firms allocate innovation effort across product features and choose export markets shows that by 2021, changes in innovation quantity and direction reduced Chinese exports to the US by 3.3%, with shifts in direction accounting for 14% of the decline.
