Abstract: Abstract This book began with the quest of understanding the underlying mechanism of the process of AMT diffusion in the automotive industry of an emerging economy like India. Adoption of new technologies (such as AMTs) is governed by several socio-economic, institutional features and therefore the processes that define and determine the pace of diffusion broadly differs between developed and developing nations. Given the many interesting advantages Indian economy displays, we chose to investigate diffusion dynamics in case of this growing economy in one of its dynamic industries—the automotive industry. The thrust of the research carried out in this book was to render a comprehensive examination of the adoption of AMTs by Indian firms and understand the role of both organisational and spatial embeddedness in the adoption process.
