Interactions of science and technology policies in creating a competitive industry: Korea's electronics industry

Roy Shin

Global Economic Review, 1997, vol. 26, issue 4, 3-19

Abstract: This study analyzes the role of science and technology policy in the industrial transformation process. Using the case of South Korea's electronics and telecommunications industries, it examines how active interaction between the private and the public sector can help overcome problems of externalities, risk biases against infant industries and capability constraints often faced by many developing countries. As industry matures and contextual factors change, Korea's “competition policy” will have to adjust dramatically to a new reality.
