  Technology Strategies For Economic Development In A Fast Changing Global Economy
 
 
Title: Technology Strategies For Economic Development In A Fast Changing Global Economy
Author: Westphal, Larry E.
Appeared in: Economics of innovation & new technology
Paging: Volume 11 (2002) nr. 4-5 pages 275-320
Year: 2002
Contents: East Asian development experience provides the basis for understanding which are the essential elements of effective technology strategy and policy, those that are required for the efficacious development of countries that have not yet embarked on a path of sustained modernization. Globalization has had a profound impact on development, enabling countries that could exploit its propelling forces to pursue a potent strategy of export-led economic and technological development. The policies needed to sustain this strategy are those required to foster institutions that permit effective commerce among economic agents, those necessary to generate the rapid accumulation of human and physical capital, and those essential to ensure that resources are allocated in accord with the economy's dynamic comparative advantage. Of crucial importance among the latter are effectively implemented policies of selective intervention designed to develop infant industries and to foster their fast-paced achievement of international competitiveness through rapid attainment of the requisite technological capabilities.
